Commenting on the Fellowship, Sunder Raju, Founder, Atria University, said, “With this Fellowship Program, the university wants to usher a new learning revolution for young frontier thinkers looking to build a radically better future. Our goal is to create transformative and accountable citizens of tomorrow. And, prepare them to navigate through fast-paced disruptions the future portends. To do that we need to embrace diverse technology tools to bypass the classic classroom delivery. And, create flexible learning pathways that will allow the multitasking youth of today to learn both constantly and consistently. Thus, empowering them to independently identify problem statements and find resources to solve them.”
As per Shaheem Rahiman, CEO, Atria University, the essence of the Fellowship program is to reassure high school graduates of 2020 and help them gain confidence that they have the power and capability to transform the world. He further added, “The only way to grow is to break new grounds, look beyond roadblocks, and learn to learn better every day. We believe that education can be a real game-changer for students who are sincerely looking to impact the world. Building the right skills can help them remain agile. And, reconstruct their career paths in accordance to the evolving marketplace. We must extend flexible learning pathways for students to develop their ability to learn, critically evaluate, and apply diverse concepts that come their way. And, prepare them for careers and world-challenges that don’t yet exist.”
