As bonanzas go, India’s new international education policy is no Lorne Greene, but Deakin U is working with what’s there

DU states the new rules offer “significant possibilities for the internationalisation of Indian higher education institutions” and so it is working “with  a select group of partner universities” on collaborative and joint programmes.”

Which sounds like it covers a Deakin U arrangement announced in India with O.P. Jindal Global University for business degrees from each plus a Deakin U masters, with study in both Australia and India.

Deakin U has long-committed to growing in India, with dozens of research and education partnerships (CMM April 17 20219) but it is slow progress. There has been talk for years of foreign universities being allowed to open in India but new policy changes allow programmes with local institutions (CMM May 27).
