Vision & Mission

Our ‘future-first' approach

We are committed to empowering students as future world leaders who are: dynamic, resourceful, responsible, and transformative.

Flexible learning pathways and maximum professional opportunities

Our mission is to revolutionize education. Move away from tradition. Keep the focus on students, not the existing system. We enable our students. We do not force them to choose careers and interests. We nurture them. Guide them. Have them explore multiple industries and ecosystems. We bring the real world to them and help them make the most of themselves in a professional ecosystem. We shape our students to be ‘World Visioneers.’ Individuals capable of transcending any challenge – global or personal.

Our Philosophy

Shaping Futures Through Innovative Pursuits and Strong Values

The old must give way to the new. New higher education systems should take over from the old. In a country where “80% of our graduates in India are considered unemployable” is an industry expectation, we believe changing the system is step one. Burdened by legacies of the industrial revolution, our students are expected to play ‘catch-up’ with the industry. Without having the pedagogical structure to support that transition. Our core ideology is to bring change to this.

Stay Inspired

We challenge the status quo by diving into the unconventional. We experiment, discover, succeed, and sometimes fail. Only to begin, again. Driven by innovation, we look beyond the apparent and delve into the unknown.

Learn Through Experience

Beyond benchmarks, classrooms, and SOPs, we lean on ‘our experience’ to show us the way. Constantly challenging our boundaries, we take initiative, lead, try, experiment, and learn. And thrive on evolving each day.

Be Curious

Learning to learn is at the cornerstone of everything we do. And we are constantly building our Curiosity Quotient. It all starts with asking questions (Lots of them). Allowing us to dig deeper and delight our minds with personal discoveries.

Collaborate

Sometimes, it takes more than two to tango. It takes people with different ideas, strengths, passions, and cultural backgrounds to achieve a mission. So, we celebrate collaborations. And rely upon the collective intelligence, vigor, and contributions of the Atria community to secure record milestones.

Founders Quote

Atria University is attempting to address the challenge of tomorrow by stitching together disparate learnings into a single holistic process. Distilled to its core, the underlying theme is “Learning to learn.” If that is the only skill that a child takes away I believe we would have provided a truly differentiated offering. But clearly the goal is much more. It is creating a citizen of tomorrow capable of navigating the fast-paced disruptions the future portends.
