| In January, 2006, students had the opportunity to visit two divergent economies: the United Kingdom and India. By traveling to London, New Delhi, Agra, and Mumbai, students were able to compare and contrast the market driven economy of the west to the emerging market of India. Since its liberalization in the early 1990s, India has undergone tremendous change in various sectors of its economy. Today, India stands as the fourth largest economy in the world with a GDP of $3.363 billion PPP. Many foreign companies have found India as their outsourcing hub and R&D base due to India’s highly talented workforce and great market potential. |
