Established with a vision to bring about innovation in higher education and learning in emerging areas of the knowledge society, the University of the Future, NIIT University (NU),  entered into a strategic collaboration with the University of Indianapolis (UINDY), aimed at expanding global educational and research opportunities for its students. UINDY’s robust and cutting-edge programmes and research will offer NU students a global exposure.

This partnership will enhance educational and research opportunities for both students and faculty. NU graduate students can undertake a semester-long internship or research project at UINDY, with options for up to one year. 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. 

Prof. Prakash Gopalan, President, NIIT University, emphasized the importance of the upcoming partnership, stating: “This collaboration with UINDY marks a significant milestone in NU’s journey to provide students with a global perspective, empowering them to excel in today’s interconnected world. As we prepare for our 14th Convocation, 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.”
