Quantum University<br />
A BEACON OF EDUCATION<br />
Beginning its journey in the year 2008 as Quantum School of Technology, the<br />
institution was recently elevated to the status of a University because of its<br />
exceptional educational vision, and its quick emergence as the hub of excellence<br />
in higher education<br />
Pursuing excellence<br />
with sustained<br />
efforts, commitment<br />
and dedication,<br />
Quantum University has<br />
invariably endeavoured to<br />
develop a healthy pedagogy<br />
of sculpting conscientious<br />
citizens and skilled<br />
professionals. Envisioning to<br />
establish itself as a center<br />
of innovation supported by a<br />
vibrant culture of academic<br />
research, Quantum University<br />
is dedicated to achieve the holy<br />
grail of knowledge creation,<br />
while discovering a holistic<br />
educational philosophy in the<br />
process.<br />
futuristic EDUCATION<br />
Utilizing its rich experience and<br />
expertise in the educational<br />
domain, Quantum University<br />
was able to quickly identify<br />
the skill gap that seriously<br />
limits the employability and<br />
prospects of Indian students,<br />
and then endeavouring to<br />
bridge this gap, it has been<br />
committedly contributing<br />
towards the Fourth Industrial<br />
Revolution, based on new age<br />
technologies such as Artificial<br />
Intelligence and Internet of<br />
Things. Well realizing that<br />
such modern technologies are<br />
going to radically transform<br />
systems of production,<br />
management, governance<br />
and in turn our society, it has<br />
focused on developing the<br />
varied human abilities, which<br />
would help all of us reach<br />
the next level of societal<br />
evolution with an eclectic mix<br />
of interdisciplinary skills in<br />
contrast to the current linear<br />
thinking embedded in our<br />
established education system.<br />
structured approach<br />
Realizing that interdisciplinary<br />
education, though established<br />
in the West, is yet to make<br />
serious inroads in India, and<br />
that every student is different<br />
with a unique learning curve,<br />
it has been maximizing the<br />
learning goals of its students by<br />
employing relevant methods<br />
of instruction which are in<br />
tune with the student needs.<br />
Through its credit system, it<br />
allows students to choose<br />
their own pace and program<br />
of learning, offering them<br />
professional expertise in their<br />
chosen area of knowledge.<br />
Extending<br />
the<br />
interdisciplinary rainbow<br />
further, it has instituted<br />
Special Passion Programs<br />
(PROPS), which encourage<br />
interests & passions to be<br />
pursued in a structured way,<br />
offering students to explore<br />
their passions in music,<br />
theatre, dance, photography,<br />
design, community service,<br />
etc.<br />
