UPES, a leading multidisciplinary university in India, has formed a strategic partnership with the University of Waterloo, Canada, by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This collaboration aims to leverage the expertise of both institutions to create transformative learning opportunities in online executive education by bringing WatSPEED, the University of Waterloo’s professional learning initiative, to India.

The MoU outlines several key areas of collaboration. Firstly, the institutions aim to work towards integrating WatSPEED’s high-quality, flexible course offerings with UPES’ expertise and student outreach, ensuring innovative and accessible learning solutions. This collaboration seeks to enhance opportunities for working professionals in India to upskill and reskill, aligning with the demands of the global economy.

Secondly, the partnership aims to facilitate the establishment of international credit transfer pathways, enabling UPES students to seamlessly transfer credits earned from their programs to applicable courses or degree programs at the University of Waterloo. This process will align with the academic standards of both institutions enabling a smooth transition for students pursuing advanced studies abroad.

Additionally, the institutions plan to work together to facilitate Master’s progression pathways, allowing UPES students to progress into specific on-campus programs at the University of Waterloo, subject to the latter’s admission requirements. This initiative aims to provide UPES students access to world-class education and research facilities, further enhancing their global competitiveness. Collectively, these collaborations reflect the intent of UPES and the University of Waterloo to deliver transformative learning experiences and empowering learners for success in an increasingly interconnected world.

The signing ceremony witnessed the presence of a high-level delegation from the University of Waterloo, including Dr. Vivek Goel, President; Dr. Mark Giesbrecht, Dean of Mathematics; Dr. Mary Wells, Dean of Engineering; Sanjeev Gill, Associate Vice-President of Innovation and Nenone Donaldson, Vice-President, Advancement. At the signing, Dr. Sunil Rai, President; Dr. Abhishek Sinha, Dean – School of Law and Head- International Affairs and Dr. Vijaysekhar Chellaboina, Dean – School of Computer Science, represented UPES.

Speaking at the ceremony, Dr. Sunil Rai, President, UPES, said, “ This partnership between UPES and the University of Waterloo highlights our commitment to delivering globally benchmarked education.”

 Dr. Vivek Goel, President of the University of Waterloo, added, “As technological advancements and global forces dramatically reshape industries, education will be essential for driving innovation and economic growth. Our collaboration with UPES to deliver professional and executive education will equip learners with the skills and adaptability required in the dynamic Indian economy. We look forward to working together to build transformative educational pathways that transcend borders and embody our commitment to shaping a better future for humanity and our planet.”
