Germany, facing a severe labour crisis with around 700,000 vacancies, is targeting Indian students to bridge the gap. With a 26% increase in Indian students during the 2022-23 winter semester, Germany now allows international students, especially Indians, to work 20 hours a week. This move aims to attract skilled individuals and address the country's projected shortage of seven million skilled workers by 2035. With 60% of Indian students studying engineering, Germany sees them as crucial to bolstering its industries. The Skilled Immigration Act facilitates seamless work opportunities and potential permanent residency for Indian students.
