  With the recent advancements in the field of robotics and the increased focus
on having general-purpose robots widely available to the general public, it has
become increasingly necessary to pursue research into Human-robot interaction
(HRI). While there have been a lot of works discussing frameworks for teaching
HRI in educational institutions with a few institutions already offering
courses to students, a consensus on the course content still eludes the field.
In this work, we highlight a few challenges and opportunities while designing
an HRI course from an Indian perspective. These topics warrant further
deliberations as they have a direct impact on the design of HRI courses and
wider implications for the entire field.
