In doing so, the program caters directly to this increasing demand for practical skills. To that end, Tetr has announced the world’s largest single-intake scholarship fund of USD 12 Million to award 60 scholarships for its fall 2024 intake.

Tetr has curated a globally immersive learning experience for students to live, and learn across 7 different countries including UAE, India, Singapore, Ghana, U.S, Brazil, and Italy over 4 years. As part of the program, students will get to study at the world’s leading educational institutions INSEAD, France (FT rank 2), SDA Bocconi, Italy (FT rank 3); as well as NUS, Singapore (#1 in Asia), and IIT among others. Courses at Tetr will be taught by Global business and technology luminaries such as Daniel Garret Van Der Vliet (Executive Director, Cornell University), Manoj Kohli (Ex-CEO, Bharti Airtel & Softbank), Alexis Montesinos (Professor, MIT), Thorsten Truijens (Professor, Kellogg School of Management) and Nitin Gaur (Advisory Board Member, Stanford University).

This clearly indicates that traditional business education is due for an overhaul. Tetr’s unique program addresses this gap with a curriculum that allows students to travel the world and learn business by doing business in a new country, each semester. I am excited to be working alongside a team that is pioneering a change in the world of business education globally.”

As a part of its curriculum, Tetr will offer students a holistic understanding of how to build brands, investment portfolios, and make data driven decisions rooted in local cultural context, as they travel and study across the globe.
