Given a choice to complete my last two years of engineering in a foreign affiliated campus, should I go for this option?

That is definitely an option to go by. Doing the last two years, or you might say the most important years of engineering in a foreign-affiliated university might be more advantageous and will give you hand over other students. Also, this will be a very high and a strong point on your resume. Not only for a CV or resume point of view but also give you a wide view of the engineering and the out world and how things work in foreign universities. Believe it or not, but foreign universities have better facilities and better labs than some of the institutes. If the university has the better labs than the ones where you are currently and have a good edge then you should definitely go for it. Also having a certification of the future university is a plus point. Some of the Indian colleges have the curriculum of what they call semester-long internships. In this, the students can go to a foreign university or a company or any other relevant institute of their domain. This definitely gives the students a semester of the upper hand and a lot of experience. I definitely can say that compared to this, a two-year experience might be quite helpful.

Recent years have witnessed an increasing trend of foreign universities opening campuses in India. With the Ministry of Human Resources and UGC opening up the gates for foreign university campuses in India, we can expect many more institutes coming to the country. Why are foreign institutes coming to India? International universities are interested in coming to India with an objective of either Prestige-enhancing or Prestige-seeking or Revenue/profit maximizing. However, the institutes cite talent maximization as the motive. Indian youth is welcoming specialized careers, be it fashion, animation, design, to name a few. Such options do not have established educational platforms in India. So foreign brands are coming up to recognize and polish the talent. Video gaming is growing a lot in India. But most of the studios require game producing methodologies to bring their ideas to a worldwide level. That's why the institute decided to come to India. At the same time, with growing international relations and more foreign companies coming to India, demand for managers that have skills and experience to work in multiple countries is rising. Is degree given by foreign institutes in India recognized? Recognition of foreign institutes degrees in India by Indian authorities remains an issue despite global recognition. Bhopal saw protests by students against Leeds-Metropolitan University, the first higher education campus established by a foreign university in India. Students claimed that the degrees given to them were illegal in India as this university was not authorized by the UGC to do so. Today, the institute has been merged with another university in India. So, check before you take admission in any university for recognition of courses.
