University of Southampton, Delhi has announced International Tech Park, Gurgaon, as the location of its Indian campus.

The campus building is set to be completed by April 2025 with the first intake of students starting in August 2025. “The new campus will bring world-class education, research and enterprise opportunities to India through the excellent facilities offered at International Tech Park,” an official statement reads.

“We chose Gurgaon and the International Tech Park for our new campus because of the city’s position as a thriving hub for business, technology, and innovation in India. The International Tech Park offers an ideal location, surrounded by cutting-edge industries and dynamic career opportunities, ensuring our students are immersed in a forward-thinking environment. The campus’s futuristic design will foster creativity and collaboration, with facilities that promote both academic excellence and student wellbeing. This environment will empower students to not only receive world-class education but also gain the practical skills and industry connections needed to excel in their careers,” said Professor Andrew Atherton, Vice-President of International and Engagement at the University of Southampton.

The campus will offer a student hub, social and collaboration areas, a large library, private study spaces, IT labs and training suites. Moreover, it will feature a dedicated research space that is aimed at promoting academic and student collaboration.

 

The International Tech Park provides students with access to fitness centres, food halls, table tennis zones, and sports facilities including basketball and tennis courts, with a cricket pitch under development. Nearby amenities include golf courses, football grounds, and equestrian centres, further enhancing the overall student experience. Oxford International will act as an operational partner, supplying the expertise needed to uphold the same exceptional standards of learning and employability that students experience in the UK.

Set within the 60 acres of International Tech Park, the new campus will be IGBC LEED Platinum pre-certified. The campus is being designed by internationally acclaimed architect Morphogenesis and will be in an exclusive new building that will be accessible to all.

University of Southampton is the first UK university to open its campus in India. The varsity will start by offering undergraduate programmes in Computer Science, Business Management, Economics, Accounts and Finance, as well as postgraduate programmes in International Management and Finance. The University will expand its portfolio every year by adding new and emerging programmes. Students will graduate with the same degree at University of Southampton Delhi as they will do when studying the same degree in the UK.  More details on student accommodation will be unveiled soon.
The first application round commenced in the beginning of November and concluded on November 29. By mid-January 2025, students can expect to find out if they have got admission or not. Two further admissions rounds are then expected to take place for August 2025 entry. The application fee of Rs 5,000 is waived for the first application round. Details on scholarships and accommodation options will be announced soon.
