Academic Collaborations

 

The National Education Policy 2020 endeavours to revamp important aspects of the education structure, its regulation and governance to create a new system that is aligned with the aspirational goals of 21st-century education and promote India as a global study destination. Teaching-learning and research collaborations, faculty-student exchanges, and credit transfer arrangements with high-ranked foreign higher educational institutions are being facilitated. SIU aspires to expand its horizons for academic enrichment with foreign higher educational institutions through collaborative arrangements to create opportunities for staff and students. This has also opened the doors for new learning experiences through collaborative programs such as twinning, dual degree, joint degree and pathway programs. Under the collaborative programs initiative, SIU is working with universities that feature in the top 1000 of Times Higher Education or QS World University ranking. Symbiosis Centre for International Education (SCIE), in order to facilitate such collaborations, functions as a single point of contact and is responsible for:

(a) liaising with international universities;

(b) supporting SIU constituent institutes to initiate discussions with foreign partners, initiate internal approval processes and support in launching collaborative programs;

(c) addressing matters related to SIU students proceeding abroad to Foreign Higher Educational Institutions under collaborative arrangements;

(d) maintaining records and disseminating information related to international collaborations.
