Pega Boosts Agentic AI Skills in India with New University Partnerships

Pega is expanding its university partnerships in India to enhance skills in agentic AI and automation. The company plans to add 30 to 40 new universities this year to its University Academic Program. VEMU Technical University is a new partner, joining 23 existing institutions. The University of Engineering & Management, Kolkata, and Woxsen University are also expanding their involvement.

They aim to embed in-demand agentic AI and intelligent automation skills directly into engineering education. What's interesting is this direct model helps build a pipeline of Pega-certified students fluent in agentic AI, Gen AI, and enterprise automation. The bottom line is this upskilling is seen as vital for India’s digital future and economic resilience.
