In a landmark move that marks a significant leap in India–UK educational ties, the prestigious University of Bristol has received a Letter of Intent (LoI) to open its first-ever international campus in Mumbai. This development comes under India’s push for internationalization of higher education under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
