CASI partners with for-profit and non-profit organizations working across India to provide summer internships on a range of development issues including health, rural development, environmental sustainability, education, gender, and social enterprise.

CASI also provides travel funds for Penn students conducting research—up to $3,000 to undergraduate winners and up to $3,500 to graduate student winners to use toward international round trip economy fare and India in-country travel related expenses.

Additionally, CASI offers an annual $12,500 award to one winner of the post-baccalaureate fellowship, the Sobti Family Fellowship Fund, for a nine-month India-based independent research project in connection with the winner's academic and professional interests.

The Nand & Jeet Khemka Distinguished Lecture Series is an endowed public program of the Center for the Advanced Study of India (CASI). Launched in the 2007-08 academic year, and made possible through the generous support of the Nand & Jeet Khemka Foundation, the series brings renowned India specialists to the Penn community and serves as a critical forum for analyzing and understanding the complex economic, political, social, and cultural changes that the world’s largest democracy is experiencing, as well as the challenges that lie ahead.
The Saluja Global Fellows Program has been made possible by the generous gift from Vishal Saluja ENG’89 W’89. CASI was excited to launch the program during the 2022–23 academic year, coinciding with the Center’s 30th Anniversary. This new program enables CASI to invite eminent leaders and rising experts on contemporary India preferably from the fields of media, culture, law, and contemporary history to be in residence for one to two weeks at CASI.
