Dr. Akhil Damodaran, Faculty, and head of the department leading the MBA Metaverse programme stated, “Most universities and institutions currently work on Metaverse as a research area or have minor modules that primarily focus on theoretical knowledge.”

“UPES School of Business has already experimented with classroom teaching in the Metaverse. The program aims to teach students how to work in the Metaverse through branding, marketing, and analytics,” he added.

With the launch of this new MBA programme, UPES School of Business endeavors to prepare future business managers and leaders well-versed in Web 3.0, such as product managers and chief Metaverse officers.

UPES has been ranked as India’s third best private university by the QS Rankings 2023, and India’s 65th best university by the NIRF.
