US University Post-Graduate Student Fair In Bengaluru On Feb 12

The US Department of Commerce, International Trade Administration, US Commercial Service in India, and US Consulate General Chennai will host a series of free US higher education fairs in Bengaluru, Manipal, Mangaluru, Kochi, and Coimbatore from February 12-20.

US Consul General Chennai Christopher Hodges highlighted that the United States remains the top host of international students globally, a reflection of the quality, diversity, and innovation of American higher education institutions. He also spoke about how the US-India initiative on critical and emerging technologies, known as iCET, will drive new advances and investment in next generation fields like commercial space, artificial intelligence, quantum, and green hydrogen and the role U.S. and Indian universities and businesses can play in that effort.

He said, "The US Consulate General in Chennai is connecting American universities to South Indian business and research partners to harness the immense talent in both our countries to drive growth and foster the innovation that will take our relationship to the next level. In these cities, we see the top-quality Indian students and dynamic institutions that will help to get us there. And we're proud to help bring US university partners to south India that showcase the strength and dynamism of US higher education."
