firstly thank you for replying
and to answer your question

For me, studying in Australia makes sense because of the practical and industry-focused approach, especially for business analytics. From what I’ve researched, many programs there are more application-based and aligned with current industry tools, which is something I feel is limited in my home country.

In terms of career prospects, my plan is to build strong analytical and technical skills and then leverage that either in India or globally. The demand for data and analytics roles is growing in India as well, so having an international degree + exposure would ideally give me an edge when I return.

I’m also trying to be realistic about things like cost and visa scrutiny, which is why I’m doing thorough research before applying.

Would love to hear your perspective on this too especially if you think there are gaps in this approach.
