The new model combines academic success with international student migration and reduced education costs which establish new pathways for students to study abroad.
What is the Chitkara University International Transfer Program?
The International Transfer Program Chitkara University offers is built on a globally accepted 2+2 academic model. Students complete the first two years of their undergraduate degree at Chitkara University’s Punjab or Himachal Pradesh campus and then seamlessly transfer to a partner university in the USA, Canada, or Australia for the final two years. Students who transfer their credits with 100% approval will begin their third year of study abroad without any interruption to their academic schedule. Students will receive their degree from the international partner university after finishing their program which will grant them a worldwide accepted academic credential.
The university provides students with a solid academic base in India through its structured program which leads them to international universities with their challenging academic standards and different cultural settings.
Key Benefits of the International Transfer Program
The Chitkara University International Transfer Program offers students their most significant benefit through reduced educational expenses. Students pay Indian tuition fees for the first two years, which are approximately one-third of international tuition costs. The program enables students to study abroad at reduced costs because it combines educational expenses with accommodation and living expenses which results in lower total expenses for international education.
The program offers students two essential advantages through its international mentorship program and academic collaboration between different institutions. During the first two years, students are guided by Chitkara University faculty along with visiting professors and virtual masterclasses conducted by partner universities. The program provides students with knowledge about teaching methods and assessment techniques and educational standards which they can use during their international teaching experience.
Additionally, graduates of these programs are often eligible for post-study work opportunities. Students who want to study abroad must obtain work permits which vary between countries so they can work in the USA under STEM OPT for three years or in Canada under Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP).
