Overview
TERI School Of Advanced Studies, (TERI SAS) New Delhi Overview
The TERI School of Advanced Studies (TERI SAS) was established as a Trust in 1998 with the aim of providing academic learning programs. Sponsored by TERI, TERI SAS developed educational programs that both supported and were supported by TERI's research on energy, environment, and sustainability. It was envisioned that the academic rigor of the faculty would enhance TERI's applied research quality, while TERI's cutting-edge research would continually refresh TERI SAS’s curriculum, increasing its societal relevance. This synergistic relationship was expected to strengthen both institutions and enhance their contributions to India and the world.
This relationship is formalized in a memorandum of understanding between TERI SAS and TERI, outlining their agreement to share research infrastructure, undertake collaborative research programs, conduct joint studies, and provide mutual support for seminars, symposia, and conferences. The vision for the University was further solidified in 1999 when it was granted "Deemed to be University" status
