Comprehensive Indian University Curriculum Dataset

I need a single, well-structured dataset that maps every recognised Indian university to its complete catalogue of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. For every programme the file must drill down to the individual semester-wise courses and, beneath each course, list the officially prescribed textbooks together with their authors.

The scope is nationwide, so private, public, deemed-to-be and open universities from all states and union territories must be represented without omissions. Accuracy is essential: titles, edition numbers and author names should match the latest syllabi published by each university’s academic council or statutory body.

Preferred format is a clean spreadsheet or relational database that lets me filter by university, level, discipline and course code. If you have a better technical approach, outline it in your proposal—I’m open to API-ready outputs or scripted web-scraping pipelines, provided citation links accompany every entry so I can verify your sources swiftly.

Deliverables
• Master file covering every Indian university with separate fields for university type, location, programme level, discipline, course name/code, textbook title, author(s) and edition/year.
• Source list (URLs or PDF references) used to compile each university’s curriculum.
• Brief read-me explaining data structure and any automated collection scripts.

Please send a detailed project proposal that explains your methodology, sample structure and estimated timeline.
