An article in The Economic Times blog compares trends of the Chinese and Indian higher education systems. Dr. Rahul Choudaha, Director of Research and Advisory Service at World Education Service, notes that "the Indian higher education system is highly concentrated at the undergraduate (bachelor’s) degree level. As a proportion of the total student enrollment in higher education, India has nearly 75% of all its students pursuing a bachelor’s degree as compared to 43% for China and half for the U.S. This clearly has implications on growth directions, expectations and outcomes for higher education."
