India is sixth in the University Group’s network of global hubs after Brussels, Dubai, Africa, China and Singapore, says the university.
The statement adds that India is a key market for the group, which recruits thousands of Indian students every year to its campuses in Coventry and London.
“The India Hub represents the university’s long-term commitment to build strategic collaborations in India and throughout the region and will be an important addition to Coventry University Group’s international presence,” says John Latham, Vice-Chancellor, Coventry University.
“The India Hub will streamline communication and collaboration between the university and organisations in Indian education, business, and government,” he adds.

I applaud the University for its commitment and wish Coventry University every success with its ambitious goals in India,” says Richard McCallum, Group Chief Executive Officer, UK India Business Council.
