At Home in the World
In this era of globalization, LSR has taken the lead in developing international linkages and global networks in education. LSR initiated the development of innovative international collaborations in the 1990s, and these have increased exponentially in recent times. These benefit students in multiple ways. They help to increase student mobility, lead to international team-building, ensure a global citizenry, help address critical global issues and lead to new skills and habits to help students think and act differently. The advancement and application of knowledge is now crucial and is at the core of all aspects of development. We need to learn from the best practices across the globe. Besides workplaces today are increasingly becoming multicultural and diverse – this exposure at the college level is important to enable students to break out of stereotypes and generalizations and learn to work as a team with people across cultures. Ultimately, LSR believes that international exposure leads to experiential and transformative learning.
In the increasingly globalized world LSR has understood the importance of engaging students in intercultural dialogue, addressing the issues of citizenship, tolerance, acceptance of others and other global issues. Given the benefits of collaboration, LSR has tried to be creative and innovative in its collaborations and have ventured beyond conventional semester exchanges. There have been short term collaborations, collaborations using technology like Skype, tele-conferencing and video-conferencing. The College has had a vibrant exchange programme with a range of institutions across the world- Barnard College, New York; Bryn Mawr College, Pennsylvania; and Georgetown University, Washington D.C. LSR began with an academic exchange with Kinnaird College, Lahore. The institutions with whom we now have ongoing exchange programmes are La Trobe University, Australia, NUS, Singapore, Middlebury College, U.S.A., Fukuoka University, Japan, Sciences Po, Paris, Macquarie University, Australia, the Ontario in India Programme, Canada among others.
The Office of International Programmes in LSR has met with delegations from leading International Universities. These visits provided students an opportunity to explore options for post graduate studies across the world, but often led to innovative collaborations between LSR and these institutions. These have included the development of short-term courses for international students and Skype-enabled discussions between students of LSR and institutions like Bryn Mawr College and Ohio Wesleyan University in the U.S. LSR has also organized interdisciplinary faculty seminars for visiting delegations from Universities abroad. In addition, several universities across the globe and distinguished faculty from diverse international institutions were invited for academic talks and discussions. These talks were of avid interest to the students clamouring for newer opportunities.
The Office of International Programmes at Lady Shri Ram College is committed to extending horizons, creating new metaphors that will highlight all that is special and of value in India, nurture multiculturalism even as we resist homogenization. We seek to spread our wings and soar high even as we strengthen and value our roots. LSR-IQAC proudly hosted the Asian Undergraduate Summit (AUS) 2021 on 2nd June 2021 as Overseas Host University (OHU) in collaboration with National University of Singapore (NUS). In view of Covid-19 this year’s AUS was held online and LSR took the opportunity to organize the first online International Undergraduate Students Conference.The Office of International Programmes will continue to help the LSR student engage with a global community and share their skills and knowledge. The journey has just begun and there is a long, exciting path ahead albeit an online one, in the face of the Covid 19 pandemic.

OIP Report 2020-2021
From March 2020 till June 2020, due to the pandemic, the campus was totally shut for faculty and students. All teaching shifted online as did all meetings and most administrative work. The students who had come on Exchange fortunately returned to their home Universities just before the lockdown was announced. They too continued their classes and assignments in an online mode and completed the credit requirements.
Just before the lockdown from January to March, we had held interviews and selected candidates for the SUSI (Study of the US Institute for Student Leaders) Summer Programme and our Exchange Programmes. The students selected for the SUSI programme were Astha Bamba and Aanya Wig. The students chosen for Exchanges included Chahak Agrawal and Aarti for the Fukuoka Programme, Tayyaba Rizwan for La Trobe and Riya Mohan and Akanksha for the Macquarie Exchange. Anusha had been selected for the Masters Programme at Macquarie. The Australian Universities cancelled all the programmes with the understanding that if the situation improved by the end of the year, the Exchange students could join the programme for the January semester. However, later in the year this too was cancelled. The Summer Programme in the US too was cancelled.
Fukuoka University conducted the programme online and sent the girls their visa letters in March 2021 with the hope that the last three months of the programme could be conducted in Japan from May to August 2021. This particular programme continued through the year although much of it was online.
OIP remained in touch with our partner Universities throughout 2020 to work out possibilities for online cooperation. Sciences Po offered an online Winter School which was open to all students of LSR. Students were encouraged to join the course as the timings were such that the course would not clash with their class timing.
As the NUS-LSR Exchange Programme agreement was due for renewal, a new agreement was signed with NUS (National University of Singapore) in September 2020. This would enable LSR to send students either for a year-long exchange or a one semester exchange in lieu of the earlier arrangement of sending LSR students for a summer course at NUS.
LSR student, Simran Keshwani, who had joined Macquarie University for her post-graduate studies, was awarded the Macquarie University Student Excellence Award for Leadership and the Post Graduate Excellence Award by the Global Leadership Programme of Macquarie University.
Students of LSR were once again given the opportunity to apply for the Cargill Global Scholars Programme, a 2 year Leadership development programme which was open to only 10 select Colleges and Universities across India.
In February 2021, OIP opened applications for the NUS, Sciences Po, Fukuoka Exchanges and the Macquarie Masters Programme. There was an overwhelming response from LSR students.
2018-2019 has been a fulfilling year for the collaborative ventures of LSR with several new initiatives begun during this period.The Office of International Programmes, LSR, conducted its annual orientation for 2018-19 to inform students about the different opportunities, in terms of exchange programmes, summer schools and master’s programmes that OIP has to offer. They were informed about the collaborations with different universities, namely, Sciences Po, Middlebury University, Macquarie University, NUS, La Trobe and several others. They were also informed about the specifications of each exchange programme and the scholarships available for the same.
A group of students from the Faculty of Arts at Macquarie University, Australia along with Professor Andrew Alter visited Lady Shri Ram College for a short-term course which was conceptualized and transacted by LSR faculty members.

The Sciences Po representatives engaged with the students on application processes, deadlines and post graduation prospects at Sciences Po, and cleared doubts regarding the same.
Lady Shri Ram College for Women hosted an eight day long Winter School, organized by the University of Bath in December 2018. Titled ‘Global Responsibilities from the Market to the Individual’ the course was open to all undergraduate students and was inter-disciplinary in nature. Taught by faculty from the University of Bath, it included specialists from the disciplines of Economics, Philosophy, History and Political Science. The students carried out different group projects, wherein they learnt about the practical application of what they studied theoretically through lectures and seminars. Dr. Peter Postle, HOD of Economics at the University of Bath was the Guest of Honour at the closing ceremony and students were felicitated for their project work.
