🎉This summer, we celebrated our inaugural Motwani Jadeja India Fellowship cohort with food, drinks, and lively conversation in San Diego
At the closing symposium, the fellows reflected on their experiences in India and shared plans to carry what they learned into their careers
Our Center was honored to help host Ambassador Namgya C. Khampa, Deputy Chief of Mission, Embassy of India, and @drkjsrini, Consulate General of India in Los Angeles, during their visit to @UCSanDiego last month.
@CGILosAngeles @IndianEmbassyUS @GPS_UCSD
The delegation discussed opportunities for joint research, exchange programs, and stronger institutional collaboration between Indian institutions and @UCSanDiego
We look forward to building on this momentum and strengthening the partnership between UC San Diego and India.
🇮🇳🇺🇸 We were delighted to welcome the first cohort of Motwani Jadeja India Fellows to UC San Diego earlier this summer. During the symposium, fellows shared their experiences, networks built, and policy insights from their time in India.
