Indo-American Education Summit 2016
Indian educational system has been undergoing a paradigm shift in the recent past. India has the
world’s second largest post-secondary student
population of around 20 million. India has over 722
universities and university-level institutions and
37,000 colleges, and yet the gross enrollment ratio
(GER) is low with only 20 per hundred accessing
higher education. India is far behind the developed
countries' average of 45 per hundred. The
Government of India has set a GER target of 30 per
cent by 2020 and for that to be achieved, the number
of universities and colleges will have to be increased many fold while enhancing the quality of existing
institutions.
A major challenge is educational excellence. India
has islands of excellence but the overall education
standards are poor. The report that 60 to 70 percent of
engineering graduates churned out are not
employable, speaks about the quality of higher
education in India. None of Indian universities are in the list of top ranked universities in the world. All
this needs to change.
The Indus Foundation offers an efficient and cost-
effective means of interaction between Indian
institutions and foreign universities through the
specially designed Indo-American Education
Summit. Activities during the Summit include panel
discussions and one-on-one interactions between
Indian institutions and foreign universities for
academic collaborations, apart from student recruitment. The Summit is designed to be a fast-
paced program, providing Indian institutions with
valuable exposure to a large number of reputable
foreign universities from around the world. The
Summit will help Indian institutions achieve
excellent results in terms of academic collaborations
and student recruitment.
Benefits of Summit 2016
Through academic collaboration with reputable
foreign universities, Indian institutions will be able to
enrich the quality of their programs by tapping the
outstanding teaching expertise and latest curricular
developments. Further, the Indian institutions will be
able to provide their students with first-hand
knowledge of the latest developments, trends, and
techniques available at the foreign universities. As a
consequence, Indian institutions will have a
marketing edge for attracting a wider pool of good
quality students from India and abroad. Some of the
benefits are:
ACADEMIC COLLABORATIONS
1. Establishment of Research Collaboration
programs with foreign universities.
2. Collaborations with foreign universities
for offering Joint / Dual Degree programs
in India.
3. Development of Twinning and Transfer
programs with foreign universities.
5
4. Collaborations with foreign universities
for offering career-oriented programs in
India in a wide range of fields.
5. Collaborations with foreign universities
for offering distance education &
vocational education programs.
6. Setting-up of partnership programs with
foreign universities for assured admission
of Indian students, after completion of
their studies.
7. Faculty Exchange programs between
foreign universities and Indian
Institutions for gaining international
exposure.
8. Student Exchange programs with foreign
universities for enhancing the educational
experience of students.
9. Attracting students of foreign universities
for study in Indian Institutions.
10. Opportunity to apply for the prestigious
education awards.
RECRUITMENT OF STUDENTS
1. Opportunity to recruit undergraduate and
graduate students.
2. Generation of income and saving of money on
recruiting activities.
3. Enlargement of the marketplace for enrolling
better-qualified students.
4. Substantial reduction of time and costs for
recruiting students.
Who should attend? Indo-American Education Summit 2016 is a must for anyone involved in international academic collaborations as
well as those interested in student enrollment. The Summit attracts high-level decision makers who are shaping the
education field. Senior professionals from education, business and government sectors from around the world come

Academic Collaborations Academic collaborations are possible between
foreign universities and Indian institutions in several
fields. Major fields covered would be Engineering &
Applied Sciences, Information Technology, Business
& Management, Clinical & Health Sciences, Life
Sciences & Biomedicine, Agricultural Sciences,
Physical Sciences, Environment & Natural
Resources, Education & Teacher Training, Arts &
Humanities, and Social Sciences.
Research Collaborations
International research collaboration has always
helped scientists to keep abreast of international
science and to share expertise and resources. Today,
one-fifth of the world's scientific papers are co-
authored internationally — a result of increasingly
easy communication and cross-border travel.
Research collaboration supports research, training
and knowledge transfer in everything from
architecture to zoology, apart from supporting world-class research facilities.
The Council of Scientific & Industrial Research
(CSIR) is the premier industrial research and
development organization in India. CSIR, for
example, can play an important role in promoting
international research collaboration. In a similar
manner, there are a good number of universities,
colleges and centres in India that have research
programs. These facts indicate opportunities for
capacity building for research in India. Research
collaboration between Indian institutions and foreign universities will be a ―win, win‖ for all.
Joint / Dual Degree Programs
The on-campus programs to be offered in India by
foreign universities in collaboration with Indian
institutions would be Graduate and Post-Graduate
degree programs. The duration of Graduate degree
programs would be three to four years while Post-
Graduate degree programs would be two years.
Students will receive degrees of the foreign
universities after successful completion of the
programs in India. Foreign universities and Indian institutions will administer the degree programs
jointly.
Joint / Dual Degree Programs: Collaborative
programs are also sometimes known as Joint Degree
programs or Dual Degree programs in India. In these
programs, Indian institutions will continue to offer
their regular Graduate and Post-Graduate programs
as per the Indian curricula and give Indian degrees
and diplomas after successful completion.
Simultaneously, Indian institutions will supplement their existing curricula with the additional curricula
of foreign universities. Students who successfully
16
complete the existing curricula and the additional
curricula will be given degrees by the foreign
universities.
AICTE: Collaborative degree programs which are
technical in nature, namely, Engineering,
Architecture, Computer Science, Business, Hotel
Management and Catering Technology, Pharmacy,
etc., require the approval of statutory bodies such as
the All India Council of Technical Education
(AICTE), New Delhi.
Certificate Programs
Certificate programs include corporate training
programs, executive development programs, and
management development programs. Graduate and
Post-Graduate certificate programs are sought in
virtually every discipline, including in business,
education, health sciences, information technology,
humanities, and the arts. Certificate programs are of
interest because of their short duration. Students
completing the certificate programs offered through
Indian institutions will be given certificates by foreign universities.
CORPORATE EDUCATION: Foreign universities
can develop custom educational programs which
would be primarily delivered by Indian instructors
who are experts in their fields. Foreign universities'
reputation as valuable collaborators and resources,
and the breadth of their programs could enable them
to facilitate the growth of leading corporations,
public agencies, and non-profit organizations in
India.
Twinning / Transfer Programs
Twinning / Transfer programs allow Indian
institutions to offer Graduate and Post-Graduate
programs which will have their regular curricula. The existing curricula may be supplemented by additional
curricula of the foreign universities if desired by
Indian institutions. Through Twinning / Transfer
programs, Indian students will be able to earn several
credits during the course of their normal study in
Indian institutions. Students will have the opportunity
either to complete their studies in India or to transfer
their credits to the foreign universities at any time
after completing at least one year of their studies in
Indian institutions. Students who opt for transfer can
then finish their Degree programs by completing the remainder of credits in-residence at the foreign
universities.
Twinning / Transfer programs are "win-win"
situations for all concerned parties. Indian institutions are strengthened by access to the latest in foreign
curricular developments. Foreign-bound Indian
students save substantial cost of studying abroad.
Students enrolling in the Graduate and Post-Graduate
programs of the foreign universities will be given
Degrees by the foreign universities after successful
completion of study. Students who do not plan to go
to the foreign universities and students who have
been unable to get foreign visas will complete their
program of study in India, and would be awarded Indian Degrees by the Indian institutions concerned.
Distance Education Programs
The phenomenal growth of distance education is
explained by the fact that over 90% of college students access the Internet, with 50% accessing the
Web daily. Also, Indian companies and organizations
are spending huge amounts on in-house training and
education programs through distance and blended
mode.
BLENDED LEARNING
Blended Learning is the process of incorporating
many different learning styles that can be
accomplished through the use of 'blended' virtual and
physical resources. Some of the benefits are:
Blended learning won’t interfere with student's
17
current job
Student will cut down on commuting time and
costs – save money on petrol and parking.
Student can meet and connect with classmates
online and in person
Student can enjoy learning in a hands-on environment
Taking classes at an Indian institution closest to
student's work or home means more convenience
and flexibility.
Indian institutions including companies and
organizations, in academic collaboration with foreign
universities, will be able to offer an array of degree,
diploma, and certificate programs at Bachelor’s,
Master’s, and Doctoral levels in a wide range of fields. Students will receive degrees, diplomas, and
certificates from the concerned foreign universities
after successful completion of the programs in India.
Vocational Education Programs
Vocational education in India aims to develop skilled
manpower through diversified courses to meet the
requirements of organized and unorganized sectors and to instill self-employment skills in people
through a large number of self employment oriented
courses. It is expected that there will be an acute
shortage of skilled manpower in the world by 2022.
Indian manpower will be handy by then. Government
of India has already announced skill development for
500 million Indians by 2022.
In the USA and some other countries, community
colleges (technical colleges) are primarily two-year
institutions of higher education. After graduating
from a community college, some students transfer to
a university or liberal arts college for two years to complete a bachelor's degree, while others enter the
workforce. Community colleges serve the needs of
society through training skilled workers and also
provide opportunity to students continue their
education in professional colleges. Indian institutions
have a wide range of opportunities for collaborating
with foreign community colleges and technical
colleges for skills development.
Faculty Exchange Programs
Faculty exchange programs would provide participants with the opportunity to teach or conduct
research for one semester or an academic year at a
foreign university. Faculty members would benefit
from exposure to a culturally varied and diverse
faculty make-up, with an opportunity to exchange
ideas and observe a variety of styles. Faculty
exchange program is one way to take advantage of
the benefits of diverse faculty.
In order to create diverse faculty, foreign universities
and Indian institutions can develop plans for faculty
exchange programs. The benefit will be immediate,
and students will have the opportunity to learn
concepts and ideas presented in an entirely new and
different manner. The faculty exchange programs
present a unique opportunity for interaction between
foreign universities and Indian institutions.
Student Exchange Programs
In student exchange programs between Indian
institutions and foreign universities, students choose
to study abroad and vice versa in collaborating
institutions. An exchange student could live with a
host family or in a designated place including hostel,
affordable apartment / house or student lodge. The
cost for each program differs according to countries
and institutions. The participants could either receive
scholarship / loan, or be self-funded.
Programs vary depending upon program length,
country, content and other factors. Students going on
university exchange could pay tuition fees on home
campus. Students going on exchange program could choose either to live on campus or off campus.
18
Partnership Programs
Academic Partnership programs can be established
for the purpose of improving the academic quality of
Indian senior secondary schools, junior colleges, and
degree colleges. Partnership programs help to
improve the preparation of students for entry into
foreign universities.
Partnerships between Indian institutions and the foreign universities may be entered into, so that
Indian students who complete 12th standard could be
admitted as freshmen in Graduate programs of
foreign universities. Similar partnerships may be
entered into so that Indian Graduate students may be
admitted to Post-Graduate programs in foreign
universities directly.
Partnership programs provide a measure of certainty
to students in Indian institutions that they will be
accepted in good foreign universities. Students will
be spared the stress of having to prepare for the highly competitive entrance examinations in India
with the knowledge that their admission in foreign
universities is almost assured.
Study Abroad in India Programs
Study abroad in India programs will foster
intercultural development among students, who will
have the understanding and skills to effectively,
humanely, and positively navigate across different
cultures.
Studying abroad in India for a semester or year will
give students a fresh perspective on themselves, India, and the world. It will expose them to diverse
people and viewpoints, and they will get to
experience a different way of life apart from their
own in their country. They will be immersed in the
language, culture, and people of the host country and
will get to experience life as residents, not as mere
tourists. While studying in India, they will also earn
credit towards their current degree.
Students will pay the regular tuition and fees, room
and board expenses, to their parent institution.
Foreign universities will pay an agreed amount to Indian institutions for providing tuition, room and
board. International travel costs will be borne by the
students.
Student Recruitment
A large number of well qualified and financially able Indian students are interested in opportunities for higher
education in good Indian and foreign institutions. The Indus Foundation assists Indian and foreign institutions to
recruit students. Its staff is in a unique position to offer current and relevant advice to Indian students on the one
hand and to the Indian and foreign institutions on the other. Indian sponsors and exhibitors are invited to recruit
students attending the Summit.
Activities during the Summit include recruiting sessions and one-on-meetings with students and parents.
Summit will provide an excellent opportunity to recruit substantial number of qualified students.
Attendance of students at the Summit will be in several thousand because of intensive advertising and
promotional campaign prior to the Summit.
The Foundation will follow-up with students who attend the Summit until they actually enroll.
One-on-one meetings with students will be provided for Indian sponsors. Students interested in studying
abroad or in India will participate in the one-on-one meetings with representatives of foreign universities
and Indian sponsors. Entry is free for Indian students.
NOTE: Indian institutions and organizations interested in recruitment of students are advised to register as sponsors
or take a table space.
19
Earlier Summits
The Indus Foundation has been privileged to
organize eight Education Summits since 2009 in
India. The objective of the events has been to bring
about academic collaborations between Indian
institutions and foreign universities, apart from
recruiting of students for study abroad or in India. By
all accounts, the Summits have been considered to be
highly successful. The events have been attended by
vice-chancellors, provosts, deans, faculty, and
recruitment officers of foreign and Indian
institutions. Students have attended the events in their
thousands.

A FEW COMMENTS OF PARTICIPANTS
Just a quick note to thank you and all your Indus
Foundation colleagues for your kind invitation and
gracious hospitality during last week’s Indo-Global
Education Summit 2012 in Hyderabad. My
congratulations on an excellent forum for discussions
and collaboration among Indian universities and
universities from throughout the rest of the world. It
was truly a global summit. I look forward to
strengthening the new relationships generated last
week and establishing possible new links. Well done!
Dr. Don Schramm, Program Director, Department
of Engineering Professional Development,

team who I found to be very, very helpful, supportive
and excellent hosts.
Dr. Jeff Hollett, Associate Vice President, Student
Experience, Mount Saint Vincent University,
Canada
Thank you for hosting such a successful event. It was
particularly interesting to engage with a multi-
national list of attendees as most other events I attend
are usually very UK focussed. We met some good
students at the expo and have 4 or 5 strong
collaboration leads with Indian and other institutions
that we are already progressing with them directly.
Mr. Neil Austin, International Partnership
Manager, Edinburgh Napier University, UK
I want to thank you for your warm hospitality and
taking such good care of us. It was very special to

tremendous work and organization! Everything went
so well and we have been exposed to the greatest
opportunities for research and collaboration.
Dr. Majida Bargach, Associate Director, Center for
International Studies, University of Virginia, USA
I am writing to thank you for organising the Indo-Global Education Summit and Expo 2012. It was very

for a successful event.
Dr. James P. Cross, Associate Provost and Senior
International Officer and Professor, Champlain
College, USA
This was an excellent summit in every respect and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. I made very good
contacts with the participants and in particular the
Indian institutions and am looking forward to the
exchanges which will doubtless occur. I would very
much like to participate in the next summit.
Dr. Randhir Rawatlal, Director of Undergrad
Studies, University of Cape Town, South Africa
I want to thank you for coordinating a valuable and
successful summit. This was our first time
participating, and we found it valuable on many levels. We now have a much better sense of how to
participate fully and gain value from the event, and I
am certain that we will participate in the future. I
want to commend you and your colleagues for
making possible the intersection of interests and
collaborations that will be so valuable for India's
educational future. We are honored to be a part of
the is bright future.

Congratulations on the event, which I believe was
quite successful. I met a few students, and am now in
talks with several other universities, so all the
objectives I had for this event were met.
Dr. Ricardo Rato, Co-Registrar, University of Saint
Joseph, Macau, China
I would like to thank you and all your staff for the
wonderful Indo-Global Education Summit 2011. It
was a real pleasure for me to participate in this
event, to meet many wonderful people, to establish
many new contacts and to learn a lot about your
great country. I do appreciate very much your time
spent on our conversations on India, on Poland and
on the World. Thank you very much also for the organization of the sightseeing. It was fantastic!
Prof. Dr Maciej Zukowski, Vice-Rector for
Research and International Relations, Poznan
University of Economics, Poland
First, I want to thank you for your hospitality and
another successful Summit. Attending the Summit for
the third year I am confident that we will establish
some collaborations with the Indian institutions.
There is enormous potential. I visited one specific college which I feel fits the mission of D'Youville
College and we are currently working on the
evaluation process. I strongly recommend the other
American delegates to be patient and persistent in
developing collaborations with the Indian
institutions.
Dr. Arup K. Sen, Vice President for Academic
Affairs, D'Youville College, USA
I think the idea behind the Indus Foundation's
concept of providing a venue in which to assist
Indian and American institutions to forge academic partnerships over the upcoming years, is brilliant
and far-sighted. The initiative appears to be working
already, at least from my institution's perspective, as
evidenced by the great deal of email interchange
between our institutions since the conference. We
hope to see some of these initial forays result in
substantive and programmatic joint efforts over time.
Dr. Carol Magai, Dean of Research, Long Island
University, USA
Participating in the Summit was one of the most enriching and productive experiences of my whole
professional life: through the Summit in Hyderabad
and the Universities tour to Chennai, Bangalore,
Mumbai and Delhi I was able to know better your
beautiful country, admire its people and culture and,
most of all, understand the university system. The
whole program was very well designed and very
efficiently conducted by Mr. Anumolu and his staff. I
did find my partners-to-be in India through the
Summit, and this is an excellent outcome.
Dr. Rosa Marina de Brito Meyer, Associate Vice-
President, Pontifical Catholic University, Brazil
Thank you for organizing this wonderful trip. Peggy
(vice-provost) and I both found it to be most
instructive. Exciting things are happening in India,
and it is imperative that we have opportunities such
as this, to get to know each other. Please don't
hesitate to contact me if I can be of service to you in
your efforts to bridge Indian and American higher
education.
Dr. Jamshed Bharucha, Provost & Senior Vice
President, Tufts University, USA
Thank you for the truly enlightening experience of the
recent Summit. It was an extremely enriching and
fruitful collaboration in terms of bringing us together
25
with our colleagues from across the world in the
Indian education sector. The attention to detail and
seamless transition during the summit and between
cities was a mark of a highly skilled planning team
and was indicative of the care and thought your
committee put into this summit and your efforts are genuinely appreciated.
Ms. Vanessa Vardon, Graduate, Research and Int’l
Programs Manager, Drexel University, USA
It was a great pleasure meeting you and attending the
summit. I would like to thank you for the excellent
arrangements and for providing the opportunity to
meet with personnel from Indian higher education
institutions. Dr. Tadisina and I will be following
through with some of the contacts we had established
at the summit.
Dr. Ramanarayanan Viswanathan, Interim Dean
and Professor, College of Engineering, Southern
Illinois University Carbondale , USA
Thank you for organizing the outstanding Indo-
American Summit. You and everyone else from the
Indus Foundation have much to be proud of. The
event was a phenomenal success, thanks to the
dedication and hard work of everyone involved
Dr. Bert Barry, Director of International Services,
Saint Louis University, USA
First of all, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to
you and your organization for the excellent job you
did with the Summit. Both my wife and I enjoyed our
participation immensely. I am now in the process of
going through the various proposals I have received
from institutions in India and will be trying to
evaluate these with the help of our staff here to see
which of these we may wish to pursue.
Dr. Stephen Durrant, Vice Provost, International
Affairs, University of Oregon, USA
To those of you responsible for the logistical matters,
please accept my heartfelt thanks for the very
smoothly managed event and the overall very fine
experience. I have so many vivid memories it is hard
to select the most meaningful; however, among the
top of my recollections - as of this moment - are the
highly accomplished chief guests, the sincerity of
everyone with whom I worked, and the opportunities
for future relationships with Indian professionals and
students alike. The participation by Indian delegates
and students was quite inspirational
Dr. Pamela S. Cutright, Special Assistant to the
Campus Provost, WVU Institute of Technology,
USA
We enjoyed our trip enormously and are grateful for
your hospitality. While the meetings were intense, we
were impressed by the level of enthusiasm of the
participants and the number of opportunities. Since
then we have established communications with a
number of institutions and are considering a number
of collaboration opportunities.
