Foreign Academic and Technical Collaborations
With increasing internationalization of education and more at the university level, there is a strong compulsion to promote interaction, especially with institutions of higher education in the industrial countries. Such interaction provides access to an ever changing scenario of a modern education delivery system and the most up to date innovative development in teaching and learning methodology. Recognizing this to be imperative, SIU has already initiated a number of collaborative programs with universities in the USA, Australia, Canada, and UK. The American corner, a joint venture of SIU and the American embassy, is a unique attraction of SIU. Membership is open to all. Members get the benefits of a rich library, computer, Internet access, materials for TOEFL, SAT, GRE, GMAT and guides for study with scholarship in USA.
