Mody University, a notable private women's university situated in Laxmangarh in the state of Rajasthan, India will pave the way for Indian American students starting this fall.
Mody University is gearing up to enroll students from South East Asia, the Middle East, Europe and the United States, among other parts of the world, Dr. Jagdish Luthra, the dean of Mody University's College of Arts, Science and Humanities, told The American Bazaar.
In the wake of India emerging as a promising alternative education destination for the students across the world, Mody University has cemented its position as a school that offers top-notch, quality education deeply-seated in Indian culture.
Dr. Luthra, who at one time served as a professor of physics at Dartmouth College and University of Alabama, divulged that the university intends to admit 50 students from the U.S. in the upcoming academic year, which starts this July.
The University offers an array of degrees including undergraduate, graduate as well as doctoral degrees in engineering, fashion-designing and law, architecture, science and arts.
Mody university has already started receiving applications for undergraduate as well as graduate programs for the 2016-17 academic year, according to the university's official website.
Established in 1998 by Mr. R.P. Mody, an acclaimed industrialist and philanthropist, the six colleges of the university include College of Business Management, Economics and Commerce, College of Law and Governance, College of Fashion Design and Merchandising, College of Engineering and Technology, College of Architecture and Design, College of Arts, Science and Humanities.
Mody University has already graduated over 10,000 students.
University officials are confident that a curriculum that encompass multi-discipline courses blended with inter-disciplinary options, first-rate amenities and a grand campus, will succeed in roping Indian Americans and students from other Indian diaspora communities across the globe.
Citing Mody University's favorable student facility ratio of 12:1, its awe-inspiring academic infrastructure and leading-edge laboratories, a safe surrounding, and focus on tradition and spirituality, Dr. Luthra is confident that US-based and students from other western countries would find Mody University the perfect place to go in for higher education.
But that's not all. The cost of degree is extremely low as compared to the U.S. universities. The annual fee along with the residential costs for a foreign student would come to about $10,000, Dr. Luthra added.
In addition to the regular degree programs, Mody University also offers a slew of short-term courses and internships, specifically created for the international students. In the beginning of 2015, the university began offering study-abroad programs and internships for international students.
The aforementioned internships are available to male students as well.
Although a residential university, Mody University allows its students to live outside the campus.
