Galgotias University from its inception has a strong
focus to internationalise the University
through not only admitting foreign students, but also build up strong academic
partnerships between GU and institutions abroad for developing need based and
innovative programs and research to meet the global challenges.
These activities
have resulted in strategic international partnerships with reputed higher
education institutions in other countries
that not only assist in creating
a distinctive international educational experience for our students, but also
allow the University to maintain an active presence in the international
academic community.
During the months of April and May a few more such strategic partnerships have
