Abstract
The study explored how the quality of higher education in Kerala played a pivotal role in influencing students' decisions to pursue their higher studies abroad. The research aimed to elucidate the intricate relationship between the perceived quality of Kerala's higher education system and the phenomenon of student migration to foreign countries for advanced studies. Through a meticulously designed mixed-methods approach, researchers gathered data from various sources, including surveys, interviews, and educational statistics, to comprehensively assess the factors contributing to this migration trend. The findings revealed that the quality of higher education in Kerala exerted a substantial influence on students' migration decisions. Participants consistently cited factors such as the perceived lack of research opportunities, outdated curricula, and insufficient faculty qualifications as key motivations to seek higher education abroad. Furthermore, the allure of global exposure, access to cutting-edge technology, and the potential for a more competitive edge in the international job market were among the driving forces pushing students overseas. By comparing these insights with the experiences of students who remained in Kerala, the study highlighted the significant disparities between the two educational pathways. It underscored the importance of addressing these disparities and enhancing the quality of higher education in Kerala to attract and retain talent, ultimately benefiting the state's educational institutions and the economy. In conclusion, this research provided a nuanced understanding of the interplay between higher education quality in Kerala and student migration abroad. It offered valuable insights for government and educational institutions to formulate strategies aimed at improving the state's higher education system and promoting a conducive environment for students to pursue advanced studies within Kerala's borders.
