    If the 19th century is characterized as the scramble for Africa and the 20th

    century is about the scramble for oil, then the 21st century will soon be seen as

    scramble for intellectual capital.

    More than ever, industrialized nations and developing countries understand that

    if they are to be significant players on the global scene, or, at a minimum, if they

    are to control their own destinies, they must secure the best and the brightest

    minds. Intellectual capital is indispensable to the process of innovation and

    production of goods and services that would guarantee a secure and prosperous

    economy.

    Evidence of this realization abounds in some of the worlds leading industrial

    countries in the west. The immigration policies in Canada, UK, Australia, New

    Zealand, Germany and the United States reward in greater numbers, either

    through the assignment of points or quotas, permanent resident status and well

    as work authorization to immigrants who have achieved the highest levels of

    education.

    Such individuals are understood to be the most desirable immigrants and

    therefore, the path to permanent residency or long-term employees is made as

    easy as possible. In some cases, some of these rewards are targeted to benefit

    immigrants with advanced degrees and professional experience in specific fields.

    In the United States, for example, students in what is known as the STEM fields

    (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) are allowed more than twice the

    time given to students in other fields of Endeavour to remain and work in the

    United States after completion of their programmes of study.

    If the current economic boom in India is to be sustainable, if India is to match its

    status as one of the worlds leading democracies with a position as a leading

    global economy, it has no alternative but to develop a formidable arsenal in

    intellectual capital.

    This may not be as overwhelming a challenge as it may seem. The industrial parks,

    the boardrooms, the research labs and the decision-making centers for the

    worlds leading industrial nations are chock full of Indian immigrants contributing

    their considerable talents to the prosperity of these nations.

    If anything, India has been a net exporter of intellectual capital for a very long

    time.

    Greener pastures

    Severely limited by the capacity of its higher education institutions, Indian

    students have historically left India to seek graduate training in the centers of

    learning around the world.

    Many of them have remained in these countries and pursued very successful

    careers, adding to the growing footprint and influence of the Indian diaspora.

    Indias challenge is not so much to bring back these very talented men and

    women to take positions in Indian society as much as it is to rapidly create the

    means for significantly larger numbers of Indian students to receive the training

    to meet the needs of the Indian workforce right here in India.

    One of the strategies to address this challenge involves entering into partnership

    with credible and fully accredited institutions of higher education from around

    the world that can deliver academic content in India.

    The recent pronouncements by the Indian government to liberalize higher

    education policy in India make the prospect of this possibility much more real.

    With the dismantling of the red tape that has historically kept leading universities

    out of India, Indian citizens will soon have the unprecedented opportunity to

    select from among a much broader menu of educational training options and

    enroll at some of the very best educational institutions without leaving their

    home country.

    The rapid rise of the middle class in India also now mean that many more families

    have the resources to pay for academic training. Aided and abetted by the reality

    that Indian families generally perceive investment in education as possibly the

    best investment they could make for their children, and even for themselves, the

    demand for higher education can only be expected to grow in the coming years.

    Will the entry of American universities in India be the answer to the massive

    unmet need for undergraduate and graduate degrees in India? Probably not, but

    in the near future, they can certainly help to ameliorate some of the difficulties in

    this regard.
