PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMS

Transcription

1 PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMS Academic partnership programs are established for the purpose of developing cooperative efforts to improve the academic quality of Indian higher secondary schools and junior colleges with the objective of improving the preparation of students for entry into foreign universities. Academic partnerships are aimed at: Transforming the relationships between educational institutions to directly benefit students; Improving curriculum in subject areas required for admission to foreign universities; Strengthening teachers' capacities to enable all students to learn the curriculum; Enhancing the ability of students to benefit from these changes; and Improving foreign universities understanding of Indian students' unique needs. The Foundation will arrange partnerships between English-medium Indian institutions and the foreign universities, so that Indian students who complete 12th standard may be admitted as freshmen in undergraduate programs of the foreign universities. Partnership programs with foreign universities are important mechanisms that enhance access of Indian students to graduate programs of the foreign universities. These programs support educational mobility and facilitate seamless acceptance of academic credit of Indian students. These programs enable Indian students to transition smoothly to foreign educational systems and help in students course selection, eliminate curriculum redundancies, and streamline the application review process. Indian students will not have to go through the cumbersome process of credential evaluation by foreign agencies. 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 for institutes of technology, medical colleges, etc., with the knowledge that their admission in foreign universities is assured. Further, students will have the option to change their field of study when they enter foreign universities. This option for changing the field of study is not available in India. TOEFL / IELTS and SAT will be required for admission to the foreign universities. Through partnership programs, the foreign universities will be able to establish long-term visibility and presence in India apart from attracting a continuing stream of Indian student.
