Higher Study is about learning to become a master in a field. It could be a continuation of the previous field of study or could be inspired by it.
Higher Study is not to have just another degree in a resume.
Higher Study could be focused towards technical or non-technical fields of study.
Technical fields include different specialization options related to an area of study which you have encountered in BE or they could be related but not covered in BE. They are fields which have far reaching and varied applications in current and future developments.
Non-technical fields of study primarily focus on management studies and applications.
There are many institutions providing opportunities for higher study in the world. Higher study can be done in India or from Foreign Countries.
