In its quest for achieving World Class University standards, Christ ( Deemed to be University) strives to identify, adapt and put into effect the best educational and administrative practices . With more than 45+ active MoUs with Foreign Universities for exchange of students and teachers, conduct joint research and publication, programmes, organize joint seminars and conferences etc, the University looks to provide quality based international standard based education making it accessible for all.
Regular exchange of students under various schemes like duel degrees, twinning arrangements are arranged with over 25 partner Universities in U.S.A, UK, Europe, Korea and Australia. Every year about 200+ students are exchanged for study periods extending from a few weeks to 2 semesters between Christ University and the partner Universities abroad. Christ University is the only University adopted by the 25 member Universities Study Abroad Consortium (USAC) of U.S.A for hosting short term U.S students in India. For this purpose Christ University maintains dedicated units with qualified staff to run these exchange programmes.
Besides hosting exchange students for short periods , the university admits around large folds of foreign students every year to its regular programmes. At present , more than 500+ foreign students from more than over 40 Asian , African, European and North American countries are on the regular rolls of the University
The International Office of the University has, over the years, evolved an elaborate system to make admissions easier. A student from abroad has the facility to apply online through the University website and selection interviews are conducted online and thereafter provisional admission letters and visa instructions are sent to the student without the hustle of travelling.
Concessional tuition fees are offered for the nationals of SAARC and African countries to encourage education with Christ ( Deemed to be University). A 3 month intensive English Language Course is organized every year in the months of March to May (before the commencement of regular courses) for students coming from non English Learning backgrounds to equip them with our teaching methodology. The International Office makes arrangements to receive and accommodate the new admitted foreign students and also assists with registration with the local Foreigners Regional Registration office .
Christ ( Deemed to be University) strives integrate the diverse international student community with the mainstream Christ University campus culture by organizing annual welcome get together and exclusive orientation programmes . Special medical attention is also provided through the medical staff . The International office acts as a mentor by monitoring the academic progress of the International students with the help of teachers and counselors. It also encourages and applauds merit students by giving awards and prizes for securing distinctions in semester examinations, part scholarships/fee concessions for higher studies,etc.
As a policy , foreign students are encouraged to opt for higher studies at our University and also remain in touch with International office even after completion of their studies. Graduates are encouraged to join the Alumni Association units in their respective countries. Informal Christ University Alumni Association units are being formed in countries like Thailand, Nepal, Maldives, and South Korea.
The office also manages multiple partnerships wherein students look to come from various countries to be a part of engagement and field works in areas of Social outreach and student volunteerism. Every year over 40+ students come to be with the University to study and understand social work concepts and how things are similar and different in their countries and India.
The office receives appreciation for the work undertaken by countries wherein, Government of Maldives sponsors a few of their official candidates for study at Christ University every year and also recognitions and awards from Governments of Thailand, Cambodia and others ensure a proven track record. Also, the United Board for Christian Higher Education in Asia has started placing their sponsored candidates at Christ University for higher studies from this year onwards.
