The two universities have collaborated for student exchange programmes and dual degree programmes and focus on areas such as psychology, social sciences, finance, and public health among others.

Pace University, New York and O.P. Jindal Global University (JGU) have collaborated to offer dual degree courses and other student and teacher exchange programmes. Initially, the two universities will start Dual Degree Masters courses in Law and Business from 2024 among other activities.

The Founding Vice Chancellor of O.P. Jindal Global University Prof. (Dr.) C. Raj Kumar said: Partnerships between institutions go beyond state-level diplomatic and strategic relationships and they shape the future of the relationship.”

Professor Marvin Krislov, President, Pace University said, “The U.S. colleges teach students to engage productively with a wider world, how to exist in the adult world. There is a key difference in the demography of India and the US as India has a very large section of the population in the 18-22-year group. There is also a greater desire for higher education and graduate degrees. Access to higher education leads to more economic benefits. We call our educational model the Pace Path — a powerful combination of academic instruction and hands-on experiential learning that sets our students up for success immediately upon graduation.”
