How the Program
Is Structured

How the Program
Is Structured

You’ll spend your first two years at Shiv Nadar University in Delhi NCR, building a strong foundation in business analytics, statistics, finance, and decision-making.

Then, you’ll continue at Arizona State University in the U.S., where you’ll go deeper into applied learning — from big data to the role of AI in business.

By the end of four years, you graduate with the skills to step into real-world roles — and the experience to be considered by some of Arizona State University’s top recruiters, including Amazon, Apple, Goldman Sachs, American Express, JPMorgan Chase, Barclays, Deloitte, Microsoft, and PepsiCo.

Years 1 & 2: Begin at Shiv Nadar University

Right after Class 12, you start with two focused years at Shiv Nadar University in Delhi NCR, where you build a foundation in business analytics through hands-on learning and individual guidance.


The curriculum covers business statistics, finance, AI in business, and big data — designed to help you understand how real decisions are made inside companies.


This foundation prepares you for the next phase at Arizona State University in the U.S., where you deepen your skills, gain real-world exposure, and train for roles in today’s data-driven business world.

Be One of Just 25 Students Selected from India

With a cohort limited to 25 students, the program is built for focus — not scale.

You learn in a close-knit environment, where every student has access to one-on-one support, individual mentorship, and deeper engagement with the material.

Small batch size isn’t just about attention. It’s about depth — more time with faculty, more room to grow, and more clarity as you move through each phase of your training.

Go from Foundation to Mastery — With a Curriculum That Trains for the Real World

Most degrees teach theory. Few show you how to use it.

This program is built differently — starting with the basics, and moving toward the tools, techniques, and thinking required in real-world roles.

You don’t just graduate knowing what the concepts mean. You leave knowing how to apply them — with the clarity and skill to move forward in a fast-changing business world.

Years 3 & 4: Train at Arizona State University in the U.S.

In your final two years, you transfer to Arizona State University — ranked #2 for employability among U.S. public universities (2025).

Here, you move into advanced coursework: corporate finance, enterprise analytics, business-focused machine learning, and more.

You work with experienced faculty, access industry-grade tools, and apply what you learn in real time — not just in theory.

These two years are designed to sharpen your thinking, expand your skill set, and prepare you for roles where clarity, data, and decision-making matter.

Upon Graduation: Begin Building Your Career in the U.S.

After completing the program, you become eligible for Optional Practical Training (OPT) — allowing you to work in the U.S. and apply your training directly in a professional setting.
