Know the best countries to study engineering abroad

Engineering has been one of the most popular study routes for Indian students.  With increasing opportunities abroad, many engineering aspirants now go abroad to pursue the course.

1. USA

Engineering occupations are some of the highest paid job roles in the US. There are a number of different engineering courses that international students can choose from in the US.

The US houses some of the most reputed Universities in the world. In terms of undergrad engineering degrees, MIT, Stanford University, and the University of California-Berkeley top the charts.

International students in the US can also convert their F1 (Student) Visa to the H1B Visa which allows them to work in the US. With the new reforms to the H1B Visa rules, students who have obtained a degree from the US have higher chances of getting an H1B Visa.

Canada is fast emerging as a favourite destination to study engineering abroad. The number of international students in Canada is increasing steadily over the years. Canada offers an easy transition from Student visa to PR. That is one of the primary reasons for its increasing popularity.
