With offices and research centers in the United States and India, research centers at its campus in Gurgaon, and a centrally located office in Delhi, the American Institute of Indian Studies:

* provides research fellowship support for scholars, Ph.D candidates and artists
* offers training in Indian languages where they are spoken
* extends knowledge of Indian culture through its two research centers, the Center for Art & Archaeology and the Archives and Research Center for Ethnomusicology
* supports book publications and articles about India

More than 6,000 scholars and creative artists have received AIIS support, with their work spanning the humanities, social sciences, social policy and natural sciences. The Institute has been directly responsible for fostering several generations of new scholars, and its senior fellows have returned to classrooms where they have taught tens of thousands of American college students.

Recognized as an educational institution in India in its own right, AIIS can directly recommend issuance of student visas for language study and for programs that bring students to India.
