The Premier of Victoria, Jacinta Allan recently opened the University of Melbourne’s first Melbourne Global Centre in Delhi, marking a significant expansion of its global presence. This milestone is part of a major delegation visiting India to enhance partnerships and engagement with local students, alumni, government officials, and educational partners.
The Melbourne Global Centre – Delhi is strategically located in the heart of India's central government district; close to businesses, international agencies, and the Australian High Commission. The Centre will facilitate collaboration and knowledge exchange across education, research, industry, and the community, serving as the University's central hub in India.
It will enable the University to showcase its extensive educational offerings, cutting-edge research, and community engagement programs. The Centre will feature cultural performances, art exhibitions, and lecture series, serving as a platform to connect research with Indian corporations, industry partners and academic institutions.
The establishment of the Melbourne Global Centre - Delhi enhances the University’s presence and engagement in India while supporting its broader global partnership model. As part of its strategy, the University of Melbourne is pursuing the development of a network of Global Centres in key partner countries throughout Asia and the Pacific, the world’s most dynamic region.
As a centralised hub for collaboration, the Centre will lay the foundations for future generations of scholars and researchers, forging new bilateral connections and facilitating meaningful educational and cultural exchanges well into the future.
