During his visit, Minister Pradhan emphasized the importance of educational partnerships in enhancing bilateral relations and fostering academic excellence. He expressed optimism about the future of India-UAE educational collaborations and the role of institutions like SIU Dubai in this endeavor.

They argue that such initiatives contribute to the diversification of higher education options, promote cross-cultural exchanges, and enhance the global competitiveness of educational systems. Furthermore, these collaborations can lead to shared research opportunities and innovations in teaching methodologies.
