European Higher Education Fair In Delhi From 24 November

New Delhi (India), 14 November: For the first time ever, more than 100 recognized European Higher Education Institutions from more than 25 European Countries will gather in New Delhi for the European Higher Education Fair from 24 to 26 November.

The European Union has taken the initiative to provide an opportunity to the Indian students, to get a close and direct insight into the high quality and diversity of the European Higher Education and Research and to get to know Europe better.

Within the framework of the EU-Asia regional cooperation, the European Commission is organizing 7 European Higher Education Fairs (EHEF) and Asia-Link Symposia in Asia, namely in China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam.

In India, the EHEF will follow-up on the recently agreed India-EU Joint Action Plan (JAP) where Higher Education Cooperation and Academic Exchanges have been identified as a mutual interest priority. Under the leitmotiv Innovation and Culture, the EHEF will contribute to "bringing together peoples and cultures" through the promotion of the EU as a study and research destination as well as of the EU policies and programmes in higher education and research.

The Asia-Link Symposium will focus on the theme "Academic cooperation and student mobility between India and Europe", setting the platform for high level international dialogue between high ranking Indian and European officials and relevant stakeholders. The discussions will be on sharing experiences on the relevance of the Bologna Process to India, on strengthening the India-EU academic/institutional collaboration including Joint Study Programmes. The Symposium will further promote regional and multilateral networking between Higher Education Institutions in Europe and India.

The European Higher Education Fair will showcase more than 100 Universities under one roof and the entire gamut of high quality study opportunities in all European Union Member States including acceding States.

The EHEF and the Symposium will take place between 24 and 26 November 2006 at India Habitat Centre, Lodi Road, New Delhi.
