NEW DELHI - Three Singapore universities feature in a list of around 260 top international academic institutions that India has approached to initiate close academic linkages with local universities.
India’s academic regulator, the University Grants Commission (UGC), is encouraging Indian institutions to collaborate with foreign universities to offer joint and dual degrees, as well as twinning programmes, rules for which were announced in May.
The initiative aims to widen Indian students’ access to quality international higher education and raise the standards of India’s academic institutions.
The government is also finalising rules to allow foreign universities to set up campuses in India. They are expected to be in place by the end of June 2023.
National University of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University and Singapore Management University (SMU) are among the 260-odd institutions shortlisted by UGC
