Our Academic Work is an International Enterprise

“We’re moving towards a future where globally networked university ‘systems’ will be needed to meet rapidly increasing demand in research and education.”

Collaborating with other universities and sharing knowledge and resources with universities and academic communities throughout the world is an important part of Chandigarh University’s international mission. Office of International relations is responsible for developing a coherent corporate strategy to promote Chandigarh University’s international relations, global profile and international competitiveness. International Centre at Chandigarh University defines a strategic partnership as an alliance which covers several areas such as:

“More and more we’re finding that students expect an international aspect to their degree and industry are demanding that graduates can operate in the global environment from day one.”

Our view is that collaborations work best bottom-up, driven by the shared interests of academics and in the service of great teaching and research. Office of International Relations is a nodal point to contact for any query regarding admissions for Study abroad programmes.

Admissions are based on academic performance in the Class XII or equivalent examination and satisfying the guidelines of the respective councils governing the engineering, Medicine, allied health sciences, and architecture education. This may expand your career opportunities in an increasingly globalised world. You may think you can ignore international relations - but international relations won't ignore you!
