Chennai-based Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science (HITS) has strengthened its international ties by signing a renewed and extended MoU with the Global Cyber University (GCU) of South Korea. The new three-year agreement encompasses broader cultural exchanges and the establishment of a global brain education centre in India.

The agreement, signed by GCU President Gong Byeong-yeong and HITS Chancellor Dr. Anand Jacob Verghese, builds upon a successful partnership initiated in December 2020, marking a significant milestone in Indo-Korean educational collaboration.

Emphasizing the significance of this enhanced partnership, Dr. Anand Jacob Verghese, Chancellor of HITS, said,” Our journey with Global Cyber University since 2020 has been remarkable, demonstrating how international collaboration can create meaningful impact in education and humanitarian efforts. The establishment of a global brain education center in India represents our commitment to bringing cutting-edge educational approaches to our students.”

President Gong Byeong-yeong of Global Cyber University expressed optimism about future collaborations, and said, “I hope that the two universities can actively engage in more advanced exchange activities such as joint seminars on the direction of higher education in Korea and India in the AI era, sustainable Earth and the future of humanity, in addition to the credit exchanges.”

This enhanced partnership comes at a crucial time when K-culture’s popularity is surging in India. The HITS delegation also visited the K-pop promotion center ‘POP-KON’ and the historic Ilchi Art Hall, famous for hosting BTS’ debut showcase, highlighting the cultural dimension of this partnership.
