Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], Mar 30 (/PRNewswire): As multiple dimensions open up in the world of technology, the need for strong and exclusive academic programs is felt more than before which will create the right class of leaders.
NMIMS Mukesh Patel School of Technology Management & Engineering (MPSTME) understands this requirement better than anyone else as it's all set to launch four unique global programs in association with Virginia Tech (VT), a pedigreed American University.
These specialized courses will give the students pure insights into the evolving frontiers of technology.
Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS) was established in 1981 by Shri Vile Parle Kelav Mandal (SVKM) to meet the growing demand for management education.
In 2003, NMIMS was declared a 'Deemed to be University' under Section 3 of the UGC Act 1956. With a dream of fulfilling the requirement of both Engineering and Management, Mukesh Patel School of Technology Management & Engineering (MPSTME) was established in 2006 as a constituent school of SVKM's NMIMS University.
Virginia Tech is a U.S. based public research University and offers 280 undergraduate and graduate degree programs to over 34,000 students and is ranked fourth best management sciences and quantitative methods colleges in the US by College Factual, 2018.
It equips students to build skills in communications, critical and design thinking, teamwork and analysis. The collaboration will give an unparalleled opportunity to assimilate the best of both schools in terms of pedagogy, vision and thoughtful infrastructure.
With this initiative, MPSTME will further venture into the space of providing highly specialized programs that create successful careers for its students.
