NAFSA 2025 Annual Conference

Marking another step in its commitment to global academic collaboration, Chitkara University participated in the prestigious NAFSA 2025 Annual Conference and Expo held in San Diego, United States. The university was represented by Dr. Vineet Tuli, Pro Vice Chancellor, Global Strategies and Partnerships, and Dr. Hazel Siromoni, Pro Vice Chancellor, International, who actively engaged in strategic discussions with international academic leaders and institutional representatives from across continents.

NAFSA, the world’s largest association dedicated to international education and exchange, attracted delegates from over 100 countries this year. Chitkara University’s participation in this global event underlined its vision to be at the forefront of internationalisation in higher education. Dr. Tuli and Dr. Siromoni explored diverse opportunities to expand student and faculty mobility, initiate collaborative research projects, and develop dual degree and joint academic programmes that bridge cultural and educational boundaries.

The conference served as an effective platform for Chitkara University to reinforce longstanding academic relationships and establish new alliances with institutions that share a common commitment to excellence, innovation, and inclusive education. By aligning with global partners, the university continues to shape a dynamic ecosystem that fosters intercultural understanding, global exposure, and enriched learning experiences for students and faculty alike.

Throughout the conference, discussions revolved around creating sustainable models of international cooperation, incorporating digital innovation in cross-border learning, and addressing global challenges through academic research. Chitkara University’s participation demonstrated not only its responsiveness to global trends but also its proactive approach to integrating global best practices into its curriculum and research framework.

As Chitkara University continues to expand its global footprint, it remains dedicated to empowering its students with the skills, perspectives, and opportunities needed to thrive in a globally connected world. Engagements at forums such as NAFSA play a crucial role in advancing the university’s mission to deliver a world-class education rooted in collaboration, inclusivity, and international excellence.
