INDIAN UNIVERSITY AND SWISS NUSEUM TIE UP


Nagaland University in India and Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology, Oxford University and Museum der Kulturen Basel, Switzerland have signed an MoU here in India, to work together in the fields of anthropology and museum.
The collaborative programs are related to education research, development and capacity building in the two areas.
The partner institutions will jointly develop and establish courses in social and cultural anthropology and museum ethnography based on a modular set up that will be offered as certificate diploma, masters, or MPhil or PhD courses.
The importance is greatly weighed by the fact that advanced knowledge can be exchanged and new research can gain new dimensions to this field.
