To the people of South Asia, Oxford and Cambridge are perhaps the most prestigious universities in the world. That is why, it is great to see that Oxford University is going to open a business research center in India. Times of India reported:
“Oxford University, the oldest varsity in the English speaking world, may be breaking new ground with plans to set up its first business research centre outside UK in India to study the sub-continent nation's rapidly expanding economy.
The university will invest 10 million pounds initially to set up its first business research centre, which will study a wide span of issues in the country starting from infrastructure and education to social entrepreneurship and business taxation, Oxford 'SAID Business School' Dean Prof Colin Mayer said.”
It shows that South Asia has become very important for Oxford University. Well, I wish that other leading universities of the world also set up similar research centers in India and other South Asian countries.
