शिक्षा के अंतर्राष्ट्रीयकरण में भारत के पास एक समृद्ध विरासत है। इस संदर्भ में शिक्षा के अंतर्राष्ट्रीयकरण पर हाल ही में दिया जा रहा बल समाज को कैसे प्रभावित करेगा और सांस्कृतिक आदान-प्रदान को कैसे बढ़ावा देगा? / India has a rich heritage in the internationalization of education. In this context how will the recent push for the 'internationalization of education' impact society and foster cultural exchange?

This was formalized via:

(i) Taxila: on ancient silk route; Buddhist literature: 'all subjects are taught at Taxila'; students such as Charaka, Chandragupta Maurya, etc.

(ii) Nalanda, Vikramshila, etc.: formal university networks, 60+ subjects, Chinese, Tibetan scholars such as I't Sing

Recent internationalization push:

1. Indian universities abroad

2. foreign universities in India (eg. IIT Madras)

Cultural impact, and impact on society:

1. More research and innovation culture

1. culture of greater collaboration (ie) industry ↔ academia ↔ youth

3. greater participation of universities in local and social problems → Hub and spoke model. (eg) Uttar Bharat Abhiyan. (eg) MSME - university linkages, as in USA

4. Spread of Indian culture. (eg) Yoga, etc.

5. multidisciplinary education → (eg) science and engineering + entrepreneurship + arts.

6. more well rounded and skilled youth

7. adoption of best practices from abroad.
