IIT Kharagpur’s Outreach Network inaugurates the Texas AI Learning Centre in Houston, focused on advancing artificial intelligence education, skills development, and industry collaboration. The centre begins operations with a short programme and is positioned as an ongoing training and engagement hub for relevant stakeholders in the region.
The Free Press Journal reports that the inauguration takes place at the Tagore Centre and coincides with India’s 80th Independence Day and IIT Kharagpur’s 75th anniversary. It says officials and representatives from India–US institutions and local leadership participate, including India’s Consul General in Houston and IIT Kharagpur’s director. It also describes groundwork for scaling the facility into a broader overseas IIT Outreach Centre and links the effort to partnerships with organizations such as Texas A&M University. NDTV presents a briefer account, emphasizing the centre’s goals of promoting AI education, professional training, and industry collaboration. Both sources agree on the centre’s purpose, location, and launch by IIT Kharagpur’s Outreach Network.
