University of California Irvine (US), IE University (Spain), Temple University (US), Kings Education (US), James Cook University (Singapore), Laureate Design Universities (US, Italy and New Zealand), Polimoda International Institute Fashion Design and Marketing (Italy) will be part of the connect. The tour will help students to understand and find the right school/course through counselling given directly by the university, making information exchange much easier and trustworthy.

The various undergraduate courses offered by these universities vary from liberal arts to steadfast subjects like engineering, finance, marketing, filmmaking, game design, visual arts, luxury brand management, fashion design, journalism, media studies, psychology, political science, and economics.

Commenting on bringing some of the best Universities to International Baccalaureate Schools in India, Campus Connect’s spokesperson said, “With the large number of Indian students going abroad to study, universities are keen to reach out to them here in India and counsel them on career options they have abroad. Our initiative caters to international universities’ goal of establishing a sustainable long-term footprint in India thus boosting their internationalisation efforts.”
