We have discussed on various topics with MU delegation. After having wide consultations with related faculty members at LPU, we will definitely work together on different programs. I also want to share that we already have 200+ international tie-ups with universities from USA, Canada, UK, China, Australia and more. We anticipate that with this visit from MU, the new collaboration would also work wonderfully in various research and allied endeavours."
