Two New US Hybrid Master’s Degrees Now Available for Indian Students
CHENNAI: LeapScholar, in collaboration with Michigan Technological University (MTU), a renowned STEM college and public research university in the US, is pleased to announce the launch of two new hybrid master’s degree programs. The esteemed College of Engineering’s MS in Mechanical Engineering and the College of Computing’s MS in health informatics will now be accessible to Indian students who aspire to earn a US degree at an affordable cost.
This groundbreaking partnership brings a unique opportunity for Indian students to pursue a portion of their coursework online in India, with the remainder taught on campus in Houghton, Michigan. By following this hybrid model, students can effectively reduce the total program cost by approximately Rs 8 lakh.
In addition, the requirement for GRE scores has been waived as part of the program’s eligibility criteria, making it even more accessible for aspiring students. With a STEM degree in hand, students will also qualify for a three-year post-study work visa, similar to full-time international students.
Michigan Technological University is widely recognized for producing highly skilled professionals who secure rewarding employment opportunities upon graduation. With an impressive job placement rate of 93%, MTU students can expect an average starting salary of $71,100 (Rs 59,24,514.15). The university’s commitment to excellence has earned it the recognition of being the 16th best public university in the US by the Wall Street Journal, and it has secured a position in the top 25 nationwide for return on investment, as acknowledged by Forbes.
Our collaboration with Michigan Technological University opens new doors for Indian students seeking quality education and career prospects in the US, said a spokesperson from LeapScholar. We believe that this hybrid master’s degree offers a flexible and cost-effective alternative for students who want to pursue their academic and professional aspirations.
With the goal of providing immersive academic experiences and expanding possibilities for Indian students, LeapScholar and Michigan Technological University aim to bridge the gap between higher education in India and the US. By bringing acclaimed master’s programs to Indian soil through the convenience of online learning, this partnership seeks to empower students to pursue their dreams without facing the barriers of distance and cost.
Aspiring students can now take a significant leap towards securing a US degree while enjoying the benefits of a flexible curriculum and the potential for a rewarding career abroad. Enrollments for the hybrid master’s degree programs are now open.
