Student Emigration/ General Emigration

[nickxfactor]

Hello there,

I am a Mechanical Engineering Graduate from India. I have had 6 months of experience in a field related to Heavy Equipments and Machinery in the Middle East.

I would like like to explore the possibilities of migrating to Canada for my job prospects.

I am planning to do an Applied Degree Program in Canada for the period of 2 years. If I enroll into this, how long does it take to get me a PR when on a Student Visa?

Or

Is there any possibility for direct emigration for a person from my background while being in India? If so, how do I apply for one?

Kindly enlighten me on the possibilities.
