Unless Indian Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) make Curriculum Internationalisation (CI) their priority, 97%+ of Indian students, who cannot benefit from international mobility schemes, will be continuously failed by the system–they will not be ready to work & live in our increasingly globalised world.To create institution-wide thriving cultures of Internationalisation-FOR-ALL & help every student become a global professional and citizen, RISHII Partners will work on(1) Strategic Planning for CI &(2) Continuous Professional Development (CPD) for CI.RISHII will create and support Indian Partners in adopting procedures, tools, human recourse, training materials and procedures necessary to reach the Internationalisation-FOR-ALL goals.14 Indian and 5 EU Partners will jointly achieve the following:1. develop Continuous CI Plans for each Indian Partner2. offer face-to-face CPD activities focused on CI through introducing competence-based student-centred approach to a high number of academic and non-academic staff in each Indian Partner3. ensure a learning-by-doing training for Institutional Internationalisation Teams, who will become CI Champions capable of running CI CPD activities after the project lifetime4. empower Indian project participants to create Online Resources that will benefit all Indian academics, as well as Global Higher Education Community5. hold National Dissemination Events to reach Indian HEIs beyond the consortium.Summary of expected results:* 14 Strategic CI Plans developed,* 90 persons formed as CI Champions capable of running CI CPD activities,* 536 CI Workshops run by Indian project participants,* 10,000+ Indian academic & non-academic staff upskilled thanks to RISHII CI Workshops* 14 Online Resources on Curriculum Internationalisation and Stronger Collaboration among Faculty and International Relation Offices launched* 8 National Dissemination Events on CI held throughout India* Over 2 million Indian Students benefited

Expansion, excellence and equity is what Indian higher education strives for; every university student should have a high quality educational experience, while every person dreaming of higher education should have a right to enter a university. To make sure all the students who enrol in Higher Education institutions across the country benefit from high-quality educational experience, Indian Higher Education needs to develop comparable and compatible degree programmes, and build the capacity of university teachers improving the quality of education and teaching. The project is based on the results of a Feasibility Study launched by the EC in cooperation with the Indian Government to find to what extent a Tuning project can contribute to, and be appropriate within, the strategic objectives of the reform of Higher Education in India. Recommendations formulated as a result of the interviews with members of Indian national authorities, associations key to Indian Higher Education and academics from universities across the country (South, East, Centre, North and West), as well as the desktop research, were validated in a final seminar by members of the Indian universities, regional and national governmental organisations in Delhi in October 2014. The Indian universities in the consortium participated in the Feasibility Study, or were recommended by those who did, as key actors of the Indian Higher education. The EU partners participated in different Tuning initiatives in different regions of the world.Hence, the Tuning India brought together 15 Indian universities along with 5 EU partners. Academics, students, graduates, employers and other relevant stakeholders from the five sub-regions of the country have been involved in the process of (re)designing degrees to make them learner-centred, comparable and compatible, as well as relevant for the society and the labour market. The project started with the four selected subject areas – Law, ICT, Medicine and Teacher Education, but thanks to the Tuning Community for India and the Tuning Centres is going well beyond these areas, and well beyond the 15 universities directly involved in project activities. Already during the project lifetime, the 3 National Dissemination Seminars, over 60 Local Workshops and 2 International Policy Forums permitted to make the Tuning India project a truly nation-wide and international initiative. Apart from brining curricular innovation and capacity-building opportunities, the Tuning India project also collected and shared wide empirical data on importance and the current level of achievement of key generic and subject specific competences, and on the students’ workload. Thus, the outcomes of the project are of high relevance for all higher education institutions in India.
