University of York Mumbai
Introducing our plans for a campus in India dedicated to research, teaching and the extension of the University’s mission for public good.
On 2 May 2025, the University announced its plans to open University of York Mumbai.
The University of York Mumbai will initially offer undergraduate and postgraduate courses in computer science with AI and cyber security, business, economics and creative industries.
A distinctive feature will be its strong emphasis on research from the outset. This commitment to research will underpin teaching and the student experience, but will also contribute significantly to India’s growing demand and drive for research development and innovation in areas such as food security, environmental change and future technologies.
The plans are to initially open its doors in an existing building in a business quarter of Mumbai, and then develop a full campus complex over the coming years. Students will study in India and follow the York curriculum taught at its UK base, graduating with a University of York degree.
We are planning to welcome undergraduate and postgraduate students for the 2026/27 academic year. The next step will be to receive the licence by the University Grants Commission in India to develop the campus, enabling plans to progress at pace.
As a University for public good, we’re taking our values-driven approach to education and research, working with a country that has an ambitious drive for global influence, skills development and economic growth.
