The Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur has partnered with Masai to launch two degree programmes: a BS in Management and Technology and an MBA in Technology.

The collaboration brings together a public technical institution and a private education platform to co-offer interdisciplinary programmes. The BS in Management and Technology spans eight semesters and 141 credits, combining technology, management and societal studies. It is open to students from all academic streams through a qualifying test and includes exit options after one, two or three years in line with the National Education Policy.

The MBA in Technology is designed for working professionals and comprises 66 credits, including a work-integrated project. The curriculum covers areas such as strategic management, digital enterprise, artificial intelligence and emerging technologies.

Both programmes include campus immersion components and provide access to IIT Jodhpur’s academic ecosystem. Graduates will receive alumni status upon completion.

Anuj Pal Kapoor, Associate Dean of Executive Education at IIT Jodhpur, said the programmes aim to equip learners with the ability to navigate complex and interdisciplinary challenges. Prateek Shukla, Co-Founder and CEO of Masai, said the initiative seeks to create pathways for students from diverse backgrounds to build careers in technology and management.

“An uneducated Indian is not a free Indian. India’s education system remains trapped in regulations that reward compliance over learning and scarcity over opportunity. The solution to exam leaks, coaching factories and unemployability is not more licensing, but more supply. We need more schools, more colleges, more competition and more education entrepreneurs. A 21st-century education must not only impart knowledge but encourage questioning. India does not need fewer cooks in the kitchen; it needs more cooks, more recipes and fewer bureaucrats guarding empty plates.”

- Manish Sabharwal, The Indian Express, (2/6)

India’s examination system rests on a foundational assumption that the process is fair, even when outcomes disappoint, and once that trust erodes, the system loses its legitimacy. This is not merely a technical controversy but a credibility crisis, because digitising evaluation is not the same as reforming it. Technology can assist evaluation, but it cannot replace the intellectual responsibility that fair assessment demands. The controversy has shown that technology has not removed subjectivity or error, it has merely shifted them into a different format. Educational institutions cannot run experiments on students whose futures depend on these results, and the obligation is to anticipate failure before implementation, not offer explanations after the damage is done.
