Curriculum

Built to Make AI Your Advantage

Every subject, every semester: AI is how you learn, not something you study separately.

Learning

Hands-On from Day 1

From Semester 1, you're using AI to run campaigns and analyse real data. Not reading about how others do it.

Faculty

Industry Practitioners as Faculty

The people teaching you here don't lecture about AI. They use it: to run teams, close deals, and build businesses.

The Team behind Stride

Piyush Nangru

Founder

IMT Ghaziabad | Co-Founder, Vedam | 20,000+ Students

After building and scaling a higher education company to 20,000+ students, Piyush started Stride because the curriculum most business schools teach was built for a world that no longer exists.

Anmol Jain

Founding Director

DTU (Formerly DCE) | Ex-Head of Product & AI | 20,000+ Students

After embedding AI into how real business teams worked and watching it transform their output, Anmol built Stride to bring that same fluency to undergraduates before they enter the workforce.
