Campus

[edit]

The university campus is located in Rancharda, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, and is spread across 20 acres (8.1 ha) of land far from the clamor of the city, with separate hostel facilities for men and women, including international students. Indus also provides limited accommodation for faculty members. The campus has a football ground, volleyball court, and basketball court.[3]

Partnership

[edit]

Indus University had a sign-up memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Dassault Systemes for a Collaborative Learning and Innovation Centre (CLIC) at the Indus campus. CLIC will allow students of Indus University to use Dassault Systemes V6 Technologies, along with LEGO Mindstorms and an Arduino micro-controller, to build cyber-physical projects that will answer problems through an interdisciplinary engineering and management approach.[4]

Indus University is in partnership with the Indo-China Economic Council (ICEC) and will sign an MoU with Sias International University, the first American university in China. Indus is planning to establish a Centre of Excellence for Innovation at Sias University.[5]
