Each year, a large number of American students are taking opportunities to study abroad in Asia, often defying the `go west' mantra. Students from different parts of the globe, seeking higher studies are increasingly getting admitted to the various educational institutions of Asia. Though most of them are majors in social sciences and humanities, disciplines such as computer science, software engineering, health, fine arts and environmental studies are gaining in popularity.

The Positives of Studying In Asia
The fact that Asia is attracting growing number of students from abroad, owes much of the credit to the following points:
· Less expensive: Financial crisis in Asia during 1997 has resulted in a sharp decline of living standards in most of the countries, making Asia the most affordable.
· Global dimension: The current socio-political scenario has brought Asia in the centre-stage of international relations and activities.
· Competitive edge: An academic experience in Asia can equip students with a competitive edge over others in the industry.
