The
International Office
Country Information
India
My name is Zoe Whittle and I am the country manager for India.
The University of Bath has been welcoming students from India for many years
and now has a vibrant community of over 100 Indian students from across the
country studying on our undergraduate and postgraduate Masters programmes
primarily in the areas of Engineering and Management. They often tell me that
they choose Bath for its ranking and reputation, emphasis on employability
and safe location.
Colleagues from the University visit India throughout the year, and the International
Office visits in February and June.
Strengthening our links with India
The University of Bath has a long tradition of engagement with India and colleagues
throughout the institution are actively engaged with the Indian educational
community on many different levels, both as individuals and through international
networks. In 2009 we have welcomed two exciting initiatives: becoming a partner
with Madurai Kamaraj University under the India/UK Leadership
Development Network Programme (LDNP) and in the development of Bath’s first
joint postgraduate programme, an MSc in Industrial Biotechnology Enterprise,
with St Xaviers College, Mumbai, funded through UKIERI. Through shared best-practice,
we hope to strengthen the skills of HE staff in both UK & India and build
a longer-term sustainable partnership between our two countries.
MSc in Industrial Biotechnology Enterprise
We are delighted to launch a new joint Masters programme, MSc
in Industrial Biotechnology Enterprise, with St Xaviers College, Mumbai
from June 2009 onwards, supported by the UK-India
Education & Research Initiative (UKIERI)- Collaborative Programme
Delivery 2009, organised by the British Council, India. This innovative and
collaborative MSc programme aims to fill the gap between biotechnology industry
expectations and skills provided by the HE sector. It will combine research,
entrepreneurial skills and an industrial placement experience in a biotechnology
company. It is designed for high-achieving students who would like to pursue
a career either in research or at the interface of biotechnology leadership
and business.Find out

My Future Career
