The summer of 2025 witnessed the launch of the Deccani Studies Program. It showed what’s possible when undergraduates learn about India’s heritage directly in the field — with expert mentors, hands-on conservation work, and time at extraordinary sites across the Deccan. Now we’re ready to welcome the next cohort of students. Many of the most deserving candidates, especially from public universities and under-resourced backgrounds, can only attend with financial support.
