If I choose my current admission in mechanical engineering in India, can I later move to European or other abroad countries for further studies without doing a PhD in USA for a Master's/Bachelor's?

Yes, you can pursue further studies abroad after completing your bachelor's in mechanical engineering in India - there is no need to do a PhD first.

Most European countries and the USA accept Indian four-year bachelor's degrees for admission to master's programs in mechanical engineering. You will typically need to meet specific academic requirements and provide proof of English proficiency (such as IELTS), and some universities may ask for additional standardized tests like the GRE.

Admission criteria and deadlines are subject to change. For personalized guidance on your target countries and programs, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
