14. Delivery in India
Support the growth of skills in our wider JLR team based in India.
Warwick University locally delivering
the same modules to the
same standard and examined and
accredited in the same way.
Strategy is for local University partners
delivering modules in collaboration
with our UK university partners.
We have ambitions to extend this to other global locations such as China.
