Next month, York University will begin building the first “full-fledged” Canadian campus on Indian soil. York’s Schulich School of Business will be establishing residences and facilities for more than 320 Indian and International students. York plans on opening the facilities in the fall of 2013.

York University is not the only Canadian school trying to attract Indian students. The University of Regina recently announced that it will be offering a joint degree in kinesiology with India’s Karunya University. 30 Indian students will be eligible each year and will study two years in each country.

Simon Fraser University and the University of Winnipeg also sent representatives to India earlier this year and Carleton University will be holding a pair of Canada-India conferences later this month to discuss education and innovation with representatives from Indian universities.

Carleton University will soon be opening a Canada-India Centre for Excellence in Science, Technology, Trade and Policy.
