Dear Colleagues and friends, The Directorate of International Relations (DIR) at MJP Rohilkhand University in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, India, is pleased to share our commitment to promoting international education and understanding. MJPRU has always been an incredible example of successful and inclusive collaborations in the pursuit of common goals, and I am excited to continue this tradition. The world has undergone a significant transformation at all levels and has become a global laboratory. For these reasons, MJPRU needs to develop its international relations so we can respond to and navigate these changes effectively. The Directorate of International Relations enables MJPRU to promote its disciplines and serve society globally now and in the future. It strengthens MJPRU's position as a global center of excellence, helps shape the global policy agenda, and connects us with people across the world to inspire curiosity and understanding. As the head of the Directorate of International Relations, I aim to continue building on MJPRU's rich legacy of international collaborations and partnerships, with a focus on expanding our global reach and impact. We will work to foster an environment of intellectual curiosity, innovation, and excellence that promotes cross-cultural learning, research collaborations, and knowledge exchange. I look forward to working with you all toward strengthening our global connections and collaborations.
