India-Ki-Khoj is an immersive module focusing upon the understanding and appreciation of India through diverse lectures, workshops, and field visits. This programme brings a small cohort of Caltech, US and IITGN students together for ten days.

Through a combination of academic lectures and field-visits, the module will take the students through India of the past, present and future making them relate India’s ancient traditions of philosophy, science and technology to a present-day India.

This happens in broader Ahmedabad – a UNESCO world heritage city that is also responding rapidly to modernity and globalization. Chosen by Mahatma Gandhi as the centre of India's freedom movement, Ahmedabad also has a long-standing tradition of business and entrepreneurship as well as spectacular architecture. It provides to participants an unhurried view of a city that has something of the old as it embraces the new; a simultaneous view of the ‘regional’ and the ‘national’.
