University students are increasingly studying abroad as part of their studies. Discuss advantages and disadvantages.

A highly controversial issue today relates to whether going abroad as part of the curriculum will have merits and drawbacks. In

this

essay, I am going to examine the aforementioned topic from both points of view and

then

explain why I believe sending

students

to other countries for

further

education is more beneficial than its downside. There are people who argue that the benefits of studying in another nation outweigh its disadvantages. The main reason for believing

such

is that

students

will gain more knowledge and experiences after being exposed to a different environment. It is possible to say that universities send their

students

to other schools for a more advanced curriculum especially if it is in the

first

world countries since not all

students

can afford to study abroad. One good example is directing

students

to schools in the US with state of the art facilities which can enhance the talents of an individual and later on share them with their fellow

students

back home.

On the other hand

, others believe that sending

students

abroad will

further

lead to a brain drain of one's country. People often have

this

opinion because if someone experiences something substantial to own's growth, they tend to prefer living abroad rather than staying and serving their country. A particularly good example is when someone is offered a full scholarship and all-expenses-paid just to stay and serve that particular country until graduation. In conclusion, I believe both sides have their points to be acknowledged. On balance,

however

, I feel that sending

students

abroad should be based on the school's intelligent judgement and weigh mutual satisfaction.
