Abstract
Historically, foreign participation has had an unimpressive record and has faced numerous functional and ideological barriers. However, subtle changes are emerging in the government’s views on the subject. The ability of the foreign universities to take advantage of these changes will depend to a great extent on their intentions, vis-à-vis the scale and duration of their involvement. Ultimately, institutions that envision a symbiotic relationship with the Indian educational system are most likely to succeed in entering and thriving in the domestic market.
