The greatest learning happens through experiences and by immersing oneself in history, art, and culture of a place. In this well-connected world, staying put in one place, one can get access to all the information one needs, yet there is a deep void in terms of practical knowledge and experiential learning. Therefore, student exchange programs are a great way to enhance knowledge, skill-sets and engage in a holistic experience.
Exchange programmes help students become aware and adapt to global issues. Such programs help in taking students out of their comfort zone, help make global connections and build a more diverse network. It also propels students towards acceptance and understanding an array of different cultural and community perspectives, language acquisition, practical immersion, multi-faceted approaches, analytical & problem-solving skills and enhanced interest in global issues as well as broader general knowledge.
