Of the estimated 15 million people across the world, who are aged 20 to 34 and graduate management education (GME) master’s degree holders, 23.4 lakh (15.6%) are from India.
India is also among the top 10 countries, which include the US, China (Mainland), Brazil and UK, with the largest pool of GME master’s degree holders within this student-age population.
As per the first-ever global study of diversity in GME, conducted by the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) and exclusively accessed by TOI, approximately 26% of all bachelor’s degreeholders worldwide studied in the fields of business, administration, or law.
In India, 28.5% of all bachelor’s degree-holders studied in these fields, of which the percentage of females (31.5%) in significantly higher as compared to males (24.5%). At master’s level too, these areas of studies remained more preferred choices with more than a quarter of graduates coming from business, administration, or law. The percentage of females (27%), however, is significantly lower than males (32.5%).
