We are a network of India Study Centres in Europe that collaborates with universities all over India and do research focusing on contemporary Indian issues.
The India Study Centres cover a wide range of academic disciplines.
The EAISC network has a rotating presidency and is active in a range of collaborative projects.
Currently the presidency is held by the University of Leiden (October 1, 2014 – September 30, 2015).
The objectives of the EAISC
The enhancement and promotion of Indo-European Academic Relations
The establishment of a European academic network serving that purpose
The achievement of synergy effects in research, teaching, administration, exchange of personnel, curricular planning and funding
The representation of common interests vis-à-vis the European Union
Specifically the cooperation with Indian Institutions of Higher Education focussing on European Studies.
