Discover India Programme is a transformative journey where innovation meets tradition. Witness the dawn of a new academic era, brimming with opportunities that promise to revolutionise our educational landscape.

The academic engagement was beautifully complemented by industry visits to Efftronics Systems Pvt Ltd and Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages Pvt Ltd, where practical insights and real-world applications bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge and industrial praxis.
Culminating the visit, our guests were immersed in the rich tapestry of Indian culture, exploring the serene Amaravati Buddha Statue, the sacred Amareswara Swami Temple, and the historic Durga Temple in Vijayawada. This cultural odyssey not only showcased the heritage of our region but also fostered a deeper mutual respect and understanding, enriching the fabric of our international collaboration.
