After completing my masters, do I plan to come back to India or settle abroad in UAE?

It depends on your career goals and personal preferences. Both India and the UAE offer strong opportunities for Computer Science graduates.

- UAE: The job market is dynamic, with roles in software development, data science, cybersecurity, and cloud computing. Major employers include global tech firms. Entry-level salaries typically range from AED 8,000 - 15,000/month. The UAE also offers employer-sponsored work visas and a Golden Visa (10-year residency) for top graduates, making it possible to settle long-term. These visa policies are subject to change.

- India: The tech sector is rapidly growing, with many roles in software and IT. Leading employers include top Indian and global companies, with competitive entry-level salaries depending on the city and company.

Consider factors like job prospects, lifestyle, cost of living, and long-term plans before deciding. If you want guidance on choosing the best option for your goals, discuss your preferences with your LeapScholar counsellor.
