Deakin University is making history in India. The Australian institution has just opened its doors to the inaugural group of students at its new campus in Gujarat, signifying a significant milestone. Deakin is the first international university to establish a complete educational campus in India.
These trailblazing students are embarking on Master's programs in Cyber Security and Business Analytics, acquiring skills that are highly sought after in today's job market. Deakin's move into India marks a new chapter of cooperation and the exchange of knowledge between the two countries.
