Australia’s IRU to build “consortium campus” in India

Australia's Innovative Research Universities (IRU) is set to establish a consortium campus in India, as reported by The PIE News. This marks a significant step in strengthening the educational ties between the two nations. The consortium, comprising six Australian universities – Flinders University, Griffith University, James Cook University, La Trobe University, University of Canberra, and Western Sydney University – will 1 collaborate to deliver Australian degrees in India. This innovative approach will enable students in India to access world-class education without leaving the country.

Many Indian students looking for high-quality higher education are anticipated to be drawn to the campus, which will be built in accordance with the University Grants Commission Regulations 2023. This action is in line with India's rising desire for international education, which has increased recently. The IRU consortium campus is positioned to establish academic interchange, research collaboration, and cultural understanding between the two nations, making it a landmark in Indo-Australian educational cooperation.
