The Story in Brief
Chitkara University and Paramotor Digital Technology have signed an MoU to set up the Sonia Asher Centre of Excellence in Future Technologies and Innovation in Chandigarh. The centre will train students in digital payments, fintech platforms, AI, data science, and technology-enabled financial services.
Students from engineering, business, design, and mass communication will get exposure through mentorship, workshops, hackathons, and industry projects, bridging academic learning and real-world applications. The initiative also covers faculty development and innovation programmes, with internships subject to selection criteria.
The Indian Opinion
This MoU is the latest in a growing list of university-industry tie-ups that often promise much but deliver little unless backed by sustained effort. The claim of 'interdisciplinary learning' and 'emerging technologies' sounds impressive, but the real test will be how many students actually land jobs or launch startups through this centre. Will Paramotor commit measurable resources or just lend its name? Numbers on placements and patents in two years will tell.
