AHMEDABAD: IIT Gandhinagar (IIT-Gn) hosted a two-day conclave starting Friday to discuss overseas higher education with Non-Resident Indians (NRIs).
Prof Sudhir Jain, director, IIT-Gn, said that the large number of NRI professionals and PIOs are an incredibly valuable resource that Indian educational institutions can tap for their academic and institutional advancement.

Prof Nitish Thakor from US-based Johns Hopkins University said, “Science and Technology have become a global enterprise. No longer are there small pockets of excellence, example as USA used to be. So, now modern education (and research) should also be a global, and collaborative enterprise, complementing mutual strengths, talents and specialisations.”
IIT-Gn has recently got Navin Doshi Chair on water and sanitation and Dr Kiran C Patel Centre for Sustainable Development.
