The course will help strengthen the technical knowledge of employees while giving them a career development opportunity.



As technology evolves, skill sets must evolve too, especially for a company like Samsung that is focused on the next level of innovations. This MoU is in line with our vision to develop futuristic skill-sets aligned to the requirements of the fast evolving mobile and consumer electronics sectors. With a deep understanding of the changing consumer behaviour and technological advancements, Samsung India is committed to support the Government’s ‘Make in India’ objective. Through these strategic partnerships, we aim to deliver the best training and skill development to our employees, and thereby accelerate our ‘Make for India’ initiative,” said

Every year a batch of 35 employees from SRI-Noida will be sponsored for this 2-year M.Tech. program. All classes will be conducted on the SRI-Noida campus.

We are very excited about this partnership both in terms of upskilling employees of SRI-Noida and to develop a globally competitive talent pool. BITS Pilani’s Work Integrated Learning Programs (WILP) are designed to integrate academic content with the requirements of the workplace, and are conducted with the same level of rigor as the program offered on campus,” said Prof. G Sundar, Director, Off Campus Programmes & Industry Engagement, BITS Pilani.

SRI-Noida has an existing MOU with Delhi Technological University (DTU) for M.Tech. and PhD since 2011.
