ABU DHABI: On Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with the first batch of students from the IIT Delhi-Abu Dhabi Campus, heralding a new chapter in India-UAE relations. During his interaction with the students on the first day of his two-day visit to the UAE, Modi stated that this not only marks a new chapter in bilateral collaboration between India and the UAE, but also brings the youth of the two countries together.
The opening of a campus of the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi in the UAE was envisioned by the leadership of the two countries in February 2022.
The project, a joint collaboration between the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IITD) and Abu Dhabi Department of Education & Knowledge (ADEK), aims to provide quality higher education opportunities to students globally.
“It would also foster partnerships between the two countries in the fields of next-generation technology, research and innovation,” the Prime Minister’s Office said in a statement. The first academic programme- a Masters in Energy Transition and Sustainability commenced this January.
