Understanding the need for industry-led programs for future skills required in the modern workplace, Sushant University has partnered with ImaginXP to bring in new age programs in management and design. The MBA in disruptive entrepreneurship is a first of its kind program marking ImaginXP’s entry into the coveted management degree space after the successful launch of BBA-Fintech with Chitkara University this academic year which has seen a record admission of 2 times capacity in its first year of launch.

The success of the BBA – Fintech program proves that there is a demand both from students as well as the industry for a variety of digital skills. Tomorrow’s digital economy will require a workforce that is trained in the skills that will be required in the future today. “Outdated and generalistic, engineering, management and other traditional degrees have lost their relevance in the current market,” says Col. Prof. Shishir Kumar – Director-General, ImaginXP. Further, he says, “this new partnership, especially for the MBA-Disruptive Entrepreneurship program, puts Sushant University at the forefront of creating Indian entrepreneurs who can compete on the world stage”.

The report, ‘Digital India: Technology to transform a connected nation’, estimates that 65 million (6.5Cr) new digital jobs will be added to the economy by 2025. This will require not only reskilling a large part of the existing workforce but also getting the 37Mn students studying in higher education in India equipped to enter the modern workplace with the digital skills it requires.

ImaginXP offers a university embedded full-time degree program delivered @campus supported with an online learning platform for accredited skill specializations called ImaginXP MyCoach in partnership with universities and colleges.
