Aspire India Scholars Programme

Welcome to the Jindal Global Summer School (JGSS) 2025! JGSS provides opportunity for high school students to experience a world-class residential university campus life for 7 days. First started in 2017 as Aspire India Scholars Programme, JGSS has successfully facilitated hundreds of high school students to manage their crucial transition from high school education to higher education.

Aspire India Scholars Programme (AISP) 2025
AISP provides immersive experience in an interdisciplinary social science and humanities based undergraduate college level curriculum for high school students. The programme includes thematic workshops, skill-based workshops, field visits, and hands on learning experience for the students. Students also get an opportunity to learn from peer mentors and Aspire India Ambassadors—young achievers from diverse careers share their experiences of transitioning from high school to higher education to specific career pathways. The final day of the programme also provides an opportunity for students to showcase their learning from the summer school before receiving their certificates of participation from OP Jindal University. Special certificates are also provided to students exhibiting exceptional traits such as leadership, teambuilding, creativity, critical thinking, and compassion.
