Industry-Focused Curriculum and Certifications
As part of this collaboration with Ernst & Young (EY), students enrolled in the MBA and BBA flagship programs will have access to 10 EY-powered certifications in high-demand domains. These certifications are designed to match current market trends and industry needs.
The EY-endorsed certifications will help students build practical skills and develop competencies that are valued by employers across different industries, improving their overall career readiness.
Practical Learning and Industry Exposure
The partnership focuses on experiential learning rather than only classroom teaching. Students will work on case studies, business simulations, and real-world projects to understand how companies operate. With inputs from EY professionals, students will gain insights into real business challenges and decision-making processes. This approach will help them develop problem-solving skills, strategic thinking, and confidence required in the corporate world.
Career Readiness and Future Skills
Through this collaboration, Chandigarh University aims to create a future-ready workforce equipped with both knowledge and practical skills. The involvement of Ernst & Young ensures that students receive industry-relevant training and exposure. The launch of these EY-powered programs marks another step in the university’s efforts to connect education with industry needs.
