I am honored to welcome Illinois Tech to Mumbai, India. The New Education Policy introduced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi has opened doors for highly reputable foreign higher educational institutions to offer degree programs in India—an important step toward retaining talent and supporting the country’s rapidly growing economic development. Illinois Tech will become the first American institution to establish a campus in India, and I am proud that they have chosen Mumbai as their location. This milestone not only reflects Illinois Tech’s pioneering spirit but also underscores Mumbai’s role as India’s financial and innovation capital, fostering strong industry partnerships and creating transformative opportunities for students and employers alike.
