India’s High Commissioner to Australia, Nagesh Singh, has met with UNSW Pro Vice-Chancellor International Professor Lisa Zamberlan and her team in Sydney to discuss the university’s new Bengaluru campus and opportunities for closer cooperation between India and Australia.
The meeting focused on the recently opened campus in Bengaluru and its potential to strengthen links between the two countries in education, research and innovation.
UNSW’s presence in India provides a new platform for academic and research engagement, with the campus expected to support collaboration between Australian and Indian institutions and communities.
Singh and Zamberlan discussed the opportunities the Bengaluru campus could create as both countries continue to expand their education relationship.
The meeting comes amid broader efforts to deepen India-Australia cooperation in higher education, research and innovation, areas that have become an important part of the bilateral relationship.
For UNSW, establishing a campus in Bengaluru gives the university a direct presence in one of India’s major education, technology and innovation centres. It also creates scope for closer engagement with Indian universities, researchers, industry and students.
The discussions in Sydney highlighted the potential for the new campus to contribute to academic connections between the two countries while supporting future collaboration in research and innovation.

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.
