About
India's premier social-science research university, spread over a rocky, forested 1,000-acre campus in South Delhi. Its School of International Studies and School of Languages are the country's best, and its intensely political, debate-driven campus culture is legendary. Undergraduate entry is mainly through five-year integrated foreign-language programmes.
