Australia's Victoria University has received formal approval from the University Grants Commission to establish a campus in Gurugram, Delhi-NCR. The campus is scheduled to open for the academic session beginning in August 2026.

The approval marks a significant step for the university's expansion into India. Victoria University will offer a range of programs at the new campus, though specific courses have not yet been detailed.

The Gurugram campus will be the university's first offshore campus in India. The move aligns with India's push to attract foreign universities under the National Education Policy 2020.

Victoria University is based in Melbourne, Australia, and has a strong focus on vocational and higher education. The new campus is expected to provide Indian students with access to Australian qualifications without leaving the country.
