Universities have always learned from and adapted to the external factors that have transformed the education sector. It is the primary reason why the sector thrived during every downturn, including the pandemic. But today as the impact of Industry 4.0 is more acutely felt, and aspirants are themselves more aware of what they are looking for from the programmes they pursue, the need to adapt is greater than ever before.

Author Paul Woodgates writes, The ways in which universities take risks and pioneer should be brought to the forefront, emphasizing the things that make them different.” At Dev Bhoomi Uttarakhand University our goal has always been to offer industry-relevant education to students and help them build future-proof careers. Dev Bhoomi Uttarakhand University's current industry trends and insights into account while planning for the future. This strategic adaption is the key to staying relevant in industry and academia while fulfilling the role of the launchpad for successful careers.

  • The new digital revolution is already here and universities need to keep pace or be left behind. At DBUU we have not only adapted to new teaching-learning platforms but also introduced courses in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Analytics, Cybersecurity and other emerging fields. Students from non-technology domains too can benefit from the insights by choosing relevant courses.
  • Now more than ever, universities need to remain engaged with various stakeholders, especially the industry. While harnessing our recruiters’ network, we have also focused on industry-integrated programmes like B.Tech. Data Science and B.C.A. Data Science to keep students abreast with the latest in the field. Industry-led Value Added Programmes are another key to adapting and innovating in keeping with changing times.
  • Another important stakeholder in higher education that cannot be overlooked is the alumni network of the institution. Over 17500 DBUU alumni are making their presence felt around the world. They bring their valuable industry insights, firsthand professional experiences, strong networks and critical tips that our students can learn from. We welcome their ideas and inputs on board as we constantly endeavour to adapt to change.
  • The future of practically every industry sector will depend on innovation, which is at the forefront of the learning experience at DBUU. From the moment students step onto the campus, they are encouraged to nurture their curiosity through research and are supported by their faculty members throughout their journeys. They can hone their skills on our regularly updated facilities and bring their ideas to life.
  • It’s important to acknowledge that the future of higher education is global. Students today can make their mark on the international platform. We do our best to empower our students through our 25+ international collaborations. They result in student and faculty exchange programmes, research collaborations, knowledge sharing, and sessions with international academics and practitioners to give our students a global advantage.
