New Delhi [India], January 22: The University of San Diego (USD), a global leader in academic excellence, is embarking on a mission to strengthen and expand its presence in India. With a focus on fostering global education opportunities, USD intends to offer Indian students transformative experiences that will enrich their academic and professional journeys.

Building on its previous successful initiatives, the University of San Diego is now focused on further strengthening its relationship with India. USD has already made significant strides by signing a landmark MoU with IIT Gandhinagar to offer dual degrees at both the undergraduate and master's levels, alongside double master's programs and executive education opportunities.

Dr. Chell Roberts, Dean of the Shiley-Marcos School of Engineering at USD remarked, "Our goal at the University of San Diego is to bridge academic excellence with global collaboration, and India represents a remarkable confluence of talent, innovation, and ambition. We are thrilled to come to India, a nation that not only fosters a deep-rooted culture of learning but also serves as a global leader in technology, science, and entrepreneurship. This visit is an opportunity to engage with brilliant minds and create pathways that empower Indian students to thrive on a global stage."

As part of its India strategy, a senior USD delegation, led by Dr. Chell Roberts, Dean of the Shiley-Marcos School of Engineering, is visiting Delhi on January 20th, and being hosted by GradRight, India's first Ed-FinTech, AI-powered SaaS platform. The delegation includes Dr. Robert Schapiro, Dean of USD School of Law, Dr. Kimberly White-Smith, Dean of the School of Leadership and Education Sciences, and Dr. Yen-Ting (Daniel) Lin, Associate Dean of Faculty Excellence at the Knauss School of Business. The visit, part of a broader tour to Ahmedabad, Mumbai and Bengaluru, aims to engage with students, institutions, and industry leaders to explore educational trends, joint-research programs, placement opportunities, and India's role in global innovation.

Through its focus on fostering academic collaborations, creating innovative curricula, and building long-term placement opportunities, the University of San Diego is setting the stage for a robust partnership with India. These concerted efforts reflect the university's commitment to nurturing India's next generation of leaders and innovators and thereby creating a lasting impact on students and institutions alike.
