The program is specially curated for working employees and the delivery mode is Hybrid.

The program focuses on digital payments through integration of technology, finance, BFSI, and information system and management studies.

The first batch took off on July 8th, 2022 with an inaugural session at Mumbai.

 

This being a hybrid program, employee students will take weekend classes and spend only one week on campus per semester.

One of the objectives of the program is to encourage the participants to publish research papers and articles.

Another advantage of the program is the opportunity to pursue super-specialization and further studies (Ph.D.) after the completion of the Master’s program.
