Vadodara’s Gati Shakti Vishwavidyalaya To Give 15,000 Jobs To Youth: Reports – News18

The Pradhan Mantri Gati Shakti Yojana is a national project of the Indian government in order to develop the infrastructure facilities in the country. Currently, the focus is on creating speed trains in the country and the work for that is going on at the major railway stations. Considering the developments, a new Gati Shakti Vishwavidyalaya (GSV) has been constructed in Vadodara, Gujarat, which will provide education to the students for the upcoming industries in the field of infrastructural development.

It has also been reported that GSV has signed an agreement with Airbus regarding the career development of the students. According to reports, GSV will be providing around 15,000 job opportunities to the youth.

The Gati Shakti Vishwavidyalaya and Airbus have signed an MoU to further strengthen the Indian aviation sector. Recently, Airbus and Tata announced a partnership to design, innovate, manufacture and develop the C-295 aircraft in India in Vadodara, Gujarat.

Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said, “GSV has been focusing on strong industry-academia partnerships. All the courses that are offered at the university are prepared with the cooperation of industry. Students studying at GSV will be industry-ready, and they will be in high demand for employment in the transportation and logistics sectors. This MoU with Airbus is an important step towards achieving this goal. This will generate job opportunities for students as per the requirements of the industry. It is believed that Airbus will provide job opportunities to 15,000 students in its Indian operations.”

GSV is one of the few universities that solely focuses on the transportation and logistics sectors. The main objective of the university is to resource professionals who are able to carry out national development plans in railways, shipping, ports, highways, roads, waterways, and aviation in different disciplines.

The recent MoU signed between Airbus and GSV will offer employment opportunities to the various graduates of the university.

Airbus is the largest manufacturer of commercial aircraft in the world and also manufactures helicopters, defence equipment, and space equipment. The company sees India as a world-class commercial aviation hub and a hub of talent and resources.
