This campus aims to equip postgraduate students with the skills and knowledge in technology and business which are needed to excel in the rapidly advancing digital economy, not just in India but across the globe. With this in mind, Deakin University will be offering two Postgraduate Courses to students at the Deakin University International Branch Campus at GIFT City which are – Masters in Cybersecurity (professional) and Masters in Business Analytics with 60 students in each course.

Keeping up with the promised schedule and the commitment to bringing international standards of education to Indian students right here in India, work is underway at top-speed and much progress has already been made, said an official.

Spread across 25,000 sq. feet, the Deakin IBC will have ample of space for integrating academic and business pursuits which would go into developing a holistic learning-working model. While the ground floor would have dedicated spaces for industry partners, start-ups and entrepreneurs, the top floor would be the dedicated university campus with learning spaces.

The course fee is set to be fixed at reduced costs with provision of 50% bursaries for facilitating deserving students in achieving their goals. It will enable students to learn and gain critical skills and employability to participate in India’s journey for success as a digital economy.
