The Kerala Government has announced that it is mulling over providing job opportunities for students along with their higher studies.

"Young people are opting for higher education in foreign countries because there are job opportunities along with studies there. We also aim to achieve the same. Projects such as Industry on Campus and Young Innovators Programme are being implemented to create job opportunities for students along with their studies," Vijayan said.
The Chief Minister said, "the government would address the concerns of the youngsters and urged them to reject the alleged false narrative that our youth are increasingly going abroad in large numbers as Kerala is not a place to live."
He listed key achievements of the state to counter the false narrative against the state. The Chief Minister also added that "the compulsory internship system will be extended to other fields of studies other than professional courses."
"Students should come forward to develop indigenous knowledge, research and products. Efforts are being made to connect Kerala with the world knowledge community. More cooperation with foreign universities and research centres are on our agenda," he said.
Vijayan said "all sectors will get the benefit of the INR 3,500 crore research and development budget announced by the government this year."
