Teaming Up with Global Leaders in Education
Jio Institute offers students, faculty, and the community the benefit of collaborations with leading educational institutions across the world. This sharing of knowledge and ideas, bringing scholars and thought leaders, enables the Institute to enhance its experience and lead the global conversation. This is especially crucial
where students and faculty can forge new connections and learn from visiting experts. In this spirit, the Institute recently hosted three foreign university delegations – two from Australia and one from Germany – to explore synergies and collaborations in higher education.
