India is often referred to as a center of excellence for International Education.
The quality of teaching and education available here is outstanding. The Indian
economy is booming and the country is rapidly emerging as a crucial world market.
To cater to this growing need of international education, Continental Institute
for International Studies, (CIIS) is engaged in imparting quality education
in India. From its inception, CIIS has dedicated itself to the active promotion
of international education. Its mission is to develop the student's ability to think
creatively and critically, and communicate well, so the student can be prepared
for international leadership CIIS is truly international in character that believes
in constructive interaction of the North American teaching techniques where the
students are at an advantage.
CIIS, in India, is an extension campus of Georgian College & Thompson Rivers
University, Canada both these colleges are funded and managed by respective provincial
Government of Canada & are rated among the largest Co-op Institutes within Canada.CIIS
has also inked subsequent tie-ups with AYR College, Scotland, UK and the University
of Brighton, UK.
At CIIS, it is a strong belief that academic and professional exchange as a means
for transferring knowledge across borders is critical for preparing a new generation
of global citizens. Thus, realizing the need for an institute offering students
quality International education, where close attention to each student would inspire
and develop their self-confidence, the Continental Institute for International Studies
brings courses in India to award Canadian College diplomas and International University
degrees right here. What is more important is that these diplomas / degrees cost
a mere fraction of what a student would spend in the US or Canada and get exactly
the same education with the option of completing the whole course in India or taking
a transfer to the International campus after one or two years of study.
In order to give an international exposure to the students, the CIIS faculty and
staff are selected by International Partner Colleges/Universities to ensure highest
International teaching standards. Senior International Professors and Lecturers
come to Chandigarh on rotational basis for a time period of two to three semesters
for full time teaching. The Indian faculty are handpicked and sent on training to
parent Institutes prior to commencement of classes at CIIS.
In essence, students get the best possible faculty, facilities, learning environment
and opportunities for a head start in life. There are three essential elements present
in our entire faculty. They have top class educational background, good teaching
experience and a relevant industry exposure in order to relate the textbooks to
the real practical world. All this helps to provide high quality education to our
students. The faculty also ensures that the courses are upgraded continuously and
are in consonance with the latest industry requirements
