London Bombings Not Going To Restrict Student Visas

Filed under:

The attacks on London may not lead to a restricted visa regime for legitimate Indian students going for studies to Britain.

British Deputy High Commissioner in Kolkata Andrew Hall said that back home we held discussions to tighten the system for those without proper credentials but it would not lead to denial of visa to the legitimate students from India.

Hall said that About 16,000 Indian students go to the UK every year compared to about 4,000 five years ago. We attract about as many students as the US now as a few years back we recognised that we were losing ground and then took a number of measures to open up the system.

Now as incentive, a student can work full-time in the UK during vacation. There are so many scholarship programmes now for students. The British institutions are also much productive now in coming to India and selling their wares, Hall said.

British management school TASMAC (Training and Advanced Studies in Management and Communications Ltd.) opened its campus here Wednesday at Salt Lake. It was inaugurated by Hall.

Hall harped on British education in India like the one provided by TASMAC whose management degree is validated by the University of Wales.

TASMAC is offering students a validation of the course by the University of Wales, the second largest and one of the four federal universities of Britain - the others being Oxford, Cambridge and London.

TASMAC is validated by the University of Wales to offer MBA programmes in Kolkata besides BA Hons in business administration.

The degree certificate that a student receives after studying in TASMAC, India, is the same as that received by students studying within the University of Wales, UK, said TASMAC India managing director Giri Dua.

The course content is tailored for Indian needs and has been put together jointly by the University of Wales and TASMAC, Dua said.

TASMAC began its India chapter in Mumbai in 1990 followed by Pune and Bangalore. The one-year MBA course would be offered at 3,000 pounds. For the BA course, the cost for three years is 4,950 pounds.
