NIIT University (NU), announced a strategic collaboration with the University of Indianapolis (UINDY), aimed at expanding global educational and research opportunities for its students. NU graduate students can undertake a semester-long internship or research project at UINDY, with options for up to one year. UINDY’s robust and cutting-edge programmes and research will offer NU students a global exposure.
Additionally, all BTech and BBA students at NU can pursue a 6-month to 1-year research practice internship at UINDY, after which they can seamlessly transition into the on-site Corporate MBA programme, provided they meet their academic requirements. NU undergraduate students from various disciplines can also transition smoothly to the Corporate MBA programme at UINDY. Faculty from both institutions can collaborate on research initiatives and joint conferences, with specialized courses offered by UINDY and NU faculty either on-site or online for terms lasting up to one year. To further enrich the experience, UINDY students can participate in an India immersion residential programme organized by NU, while NU students can engage in a U.S. immersion residential programme at UINDY.
Prof. Prakash Gopalan, President, NIIT University, emphasized the collaboration with UINDY marks a significant milestone in NU’s journey to provide students with a global perspective. “As we prepare for our 14th Convocation (0n Oct 19), we celebrate not only the achievements of our graduates but also the new opportunities this partnership will create, enriching their educational experiences and future career paths.”
Ranked #1 in Rajasthan and #16 in India as per the IIRF (Indian Institutional Ranking Framework) ranking 2023, NU has consistently maintained a 100% placement record for all students who have applied.
