SRM University – AP enters into an MoU with the University of California, Davis for common interests and objectives in academic, scientific, and cultural affairs. Our university will select meritorious students with high academic standing and demonstrated skills for University-level study in English for the Global Study Programme. Prof Y Sivasankar from the Department of Electronics and Communications Engineering will act as the nodal faculty establishing channels of communication to facilitate intellectual interaction.

The Global Study Programme will enable students to enrol in courses at UC Davis for academic credit that will be applied towards the degree the student is earning at SRM University-AP. Students will be able to enrol in a broad range of courses in nearly all the colleges and departments in UC Davis. They will be provided with access to UC Davis facilities and privileges, including but not limited to: libraries, sports, and recreational facilities, the university transportation system, and the student health centre. Moreover, students will be assisted to obtain housing within a reasonable distance of the UC Davis campus.

The MoU provides a framework for students from SRM University-AP to study at UC Davis under the auspices of the Global Study Programme. The UC Davis Global Study Programme is an academic study programme that allows students from select foreign institutions to enrol in regular UC Davis courses on a full-time, non-degree basis. SRM University-AP initiates global partnership with reputed international universities to facilitate the academic and cultural enrichment of our students which in turn adds to their personal and professional growth.
