Introduction
NMIMS Deemed-to-be-University has developed an extensive International Students Exchange Program in order to provide a cross-cultural exposure and a global perspective to the students apart from classroom teaching. This is managed by the Department of International Linkages of the University. The Exchange Program has become increasingly popular with the students and every year students get a chance to spend Semester/Trimesters at a partner Institute. With the dedicated efforts of the International Linkages department, efforts are ongoing to have a larger number of students to avail of this unique opportunity in every school. Students at NMIMS also benefit from interacting with overseas students who visit us as part of NMIMS Inbound exchange program and International Immersions.
Preamble
In a world that is increasingly interdependent, it is imperative for the NMIMS Deemed-to-be-University to have an internationalization agenda. This involves creation of a multi ethnic environment in our programs on our campus. This can happen only when students from different countries and communities join NMIMS programs.
This policy on internationalization seeks to clarify the philosophy behind the NMIMS Deemed-to-be-University’s Internationalization program and sets out the eligibility of students to apply for an international exchange program. It also sets out the selection criteria and guidelines for assessing applications and the expectations from the students going for the exchange program.
This policy also lays out the facilities for international students in our programs and also the expectations from them. We expect our foreign students to conduct themselves at par with other Indian students.
To aggressively pursue the internalization agenda, NMIMS has signed MOUs with leading Universities. MOUs applicable for NMIMS schools as given below:
