Mahindra University has entered a strategic partnership with Airbus, a global aerospace leader, to enhance education, research, and innovation in aerospace and digital technologies. This collaboration aims to develop a future-ready talent pool, addressing the growing demands of the global aerospace industry.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Mahindra University and Airbus focuses on several key areas: curriculum development aligned with industry needs, industry training to build practical skills, faculty and student exchanges for knowledge sharing, and advanced research in areas such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), advanced analytics, and cybersecurity—critical fields for modern aerospace. A major outcome of this partnership is the creation of internship opportunities and placement support for Mahindra University students. Through exposure to real-world aerospace projects, students will gain hands-on experience that enhances their learning and prepares them for future challenges. The collaboration also includes workshops, symposiums, and joint events, allowing students and faculty to engage with industry experts.
For Mahindra University, this partnership aligns its academic programs with the practical needs of the aerospace and technology sectors. Dr. Yajulu Medury, Vice Chancellor of Mahindra University, highlighted that the collaboration with Airbus offers unparalleled exposure to cutting-edge technologies, equipping students with the skills needed to excel in the aerospace industry. This partnership is also vital for India’s growing aerospace ecosystem. Airbus sees this collaboration as a step towards building the human capital necessary for India’s aerospace ambitions. With India emerging as a key player in the global aerospace market, this collaboration will help nurture the next generation of engineers, researchers, and innovators, strengthening both the university’s position and the country’s aerospace sector.
