Borderless online education has already opened many doors for students and SAGE University has been one of the very few universities to work rigorously to provide the best in class educational support. It has created a modern educational system and is promoting innovations to cater to both academic and industry needs.

The University has been actively creating new tie-ups and MOUs to provide global exposure to students, focusing on skill-based and project-based learning. Introduced after a gap of 34 years, NEP’20 has the potential to change the future of education in India. The reforms in higher education include changes in the undergraduate degree that will be of either three or four years duration, with multiple exit options within this period. The students will be provided with appropriate certifications. PG programs will be for one or two years and they will be integrated into 5-year Bachelor’s/Master's.
