Study, internships and research in India
A semester, internship or research stay in India, and the scholarships for it.
The easiest route to India is through your own programme: many Dutch universities and universities of applied sciences have exchange agreements with Indian institutions such as the IITs and IIMs. Your institution's international office knows which places and grants exist and arranges credit recognition.
The Indian government offers scholarships to foreign students through the ICCR, including for Indian music, dance, yoga and languages. Study, internships and research each require their own type of visa; a tourist visa does not allow you to study or do an internship. Dutch grants are listed in Nuffic's scholarship finder.
Researchers collaborate in joint programmes of the Dutch and Indian science funders, in fields such as water, health and agriculture.
