What is the brain drain problem in Nepal?
This question needs to be tackled with some statistics. Below is the list of number of students who issued NOC for various countries.It is 2073 now, and the data is about two years old. The numbers have definitely risen now. More and more students are moving abroad for higher studies. And this is a very serious issue for any country specially for developing and under-developed countries.Australia and USA are preferred for obvious reasons that they offer good return and better life style. Students who move to these countries can earn well and can support their studies too. Also, they can support their family back home. But this comes with solid educational background. Some of the brightest minds of nation are certainly drained in these developed countries. Most of the students who move to these nations settle their and thus Nepal looses its cream citizens.China, Bangladesh, Philippines are preferred for MBBS studies. Number of seats in Nepal for MBBS is not enough and cost of MBBS education is very high compared to these countries. As such many students take admission in these countries. We certainly drain a lot of money to these nations. Most of the students return back home after completing their MBBS studies but aren’t regarded competitive.India is preferred for all fields of study be it Engineering, Nursing, other medical studies and commerce/business studies. Easily accessible, similar culture and decent education is what draws Nepalese to India. Significant amount of brain and money is lost here again. The good ones again settle in India, while some return.Why is Nepal facing brain drain?Developed Nations like Australia, USA and other European Nations promise better life and living.Very high cost of medical studies(it is about 60 lakhs for MBBS now). Also, number of seats are not enough. There are no provisions made recently by government to increase the number of seats.Number of seats in quality Engineering Colleges is again few. Thus, students move abroad. Same is the case for other business/commerce studies.Students also prefer to fly abroad for employment.It has become a trend to fly abroad for higher studies in Nepal. Most of the houses in Kathmandu has at least one family member abroad.Brain Drain has become a very serious issue in Nepal. We loose a lot of money and brain every year and the numbers are rising. Proper measures must be taken.
