In the contemporary scenario, the international dimension of higher education is being considered as a prominent feature across the world. It has emerged as one of the major driving forces to restructure and transform the higher education system to produce skilled human capital, also make it business oriented. The international dimension is becoming necessary for institutions due to increasing crossborder mobility and influence of globalization.
