At present, the college runs about 40 centres in India, out of which 26 are full-fledged campuses, with the rest being its offices. "Within one year, we plan to open centres in the tier II cities, as a part of our efforts to strengthen our infrastructure in India," said Trevor Ashton, head of international operations.
"We do not want to invest tax payer's money from UK in another country. Thus, the money received from the various centres are reinvested back on the campuses for their improvement," he added. This apart, the college is also in talks with the Bangladesh government to open campuses there by 2010.
"Since the Indian economy is strong, unlike the European economy, which only concentrates on service sector, the courses offered by the institute are tailored to meet the growing needs of a booming economy," he said.
