IITs may setup campus in Singapore & Quatar
In order to take elite Indian Engineering Education global, India is now pushing forward the proposal of setting up IIT in Singapore. The education ministers of both India and Singapore met each other to discuss the proposal.
The government is also evaluating proposal submitted by Quatar government to setup IIT campus there.
"Accordingly, the proposed International Institute of Technology in Singapore will provide BTech courses in sunrise sectors like energy, environment, communication & computing, design & manufacturing, international diplomacy and management, health science & technology, water resources and education. In the process it will also mark several firsts for the IIT system which still largely sticks to engineering. Marking a growth trajectory, IIT Singapore will also emphasize postgraduate education in a major way and posit itself as a pan-Asian institute." - #-Link-Snipped-#
Do you think its a good move?

silverscorpionI think it is definitely a good move.
It'll be good to have our own educational institutions catering to a wider global student base..
But as always, there will be a lot of hurdles before it can be implemented.
And then, care should be taken to ensure that it doesn't turn out to be a business minded organization.. -
