IIT Kharagpur and REDOC SPI, a French network of doctoral schools, have come together to strengthen institutional collaboration in doctoral education and research.

"They may also share and carry out joint research in technology for distance and computer-based learning," he said.

Prof Hubert Romat, Director International Relations, will be the coordinator of REDOC SPI.

REDOC SPI is the only Network of French Doctoral Schools in the fields of mechanical and electrical engineering among others.

"We are really happy to have this association with IIT Kharagpur and we look forward to a long and productive partnership with the talented faculty members of this iconic Institute of India," Romat was quoted to have said in the statement.
