How JKLU's BBA Programme Builds the Foundation of a Thriving Career
NewsVoir
Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], June 4: With hundreds of undergraduate programmes to choose from, it is quite common for a Class 12 student to feel nervous about making the right choice -- because that one decision, about which programme to pursue, could shape their life for years to come. For students not inclined towards conventional paths like engineering or medicine, a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) offers a dynamic and future-ready alternative. But just as choosing the right programme is important, selecting the right institution is an equally significant decision. Jaipur's JK Lakshmipat University (JKLU) stands out with its future-focused BBA programmes that not only equip students with the skills and experiences necessary for success in the evolving global job market but also train and support them to embark on an entrepreneurial journey.
Future-Ready Curriculum Aligned with Industry Needs
In an era where artificial intelligence and automation are transforming industries, the demand for skilled business leaders remains robust. Recognising this, JKLU has meticulously crafted its BBA curriculum to integrate emerging technologies and multidisciplinary approaches, ensuring that students are well-prepared for the challenges and opportunities of Industry 5.0.
According to Dr. Ashwini Sharma, Acting Director of the Institute of Management at JKLU, "The curricula of our BBA programmes are highly distinctive and have been meticulously designed to meet the current as well as future industry needs. With Industry 5.0 resetting the norms of production and consumption, we take special care to prepare students to become active collaborators in achieving the shared goal of building a better and sustainable world."
Students at JKLU can specialise in areas such as Entrepreneurship; Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI); Financial Technologies (Fintech); Business Analytics; and Marketing. This flexibility allows them to tailor their education to their interests and the demands of the market.
Emphasis on Critical Thinking and Communication Skills
A significant concern in higher education today is to equip graduates with essential soft skills. As Deloitte's 2025 Human Capital Trends Report underlines, "As AI takes over more tasks, workers will be increasingly asked to invest in work that requires critical thinking, innovation, collaboration and meaningful human interaction." As per World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025, analytical thinking remains the most sought- after core skill, followed by resilience, flexibility and agility, along with leadership and social influence.
Taking cognisance of the need to equip graduates with 21st century skills, JKLU has integrated critical thinking and communication skills into its BBA programmes. Through case studies, group discussions, and presentations, students are encouraged to think analytically and express their ideas effectively. This approach not only enhances their academic performance but also prepares them for leadership roles in their careers.
Leveraging the Legacy of JK Group
With a legacy spanning over 140 years, the JK Group has established itself as a prominent industrial conglomerate in India. This rich heritage provides JKLU students with unparalleled industry connections and networking opportunities. The university's affiliation with the JK Group facilitates internships, mentorships, and exposure to real-world business scenarios, bridging the gap between academic learning and industry practices.
World-Class Faculty and Vibrant Campus Life
At JKLU, students benefit from a world-class faculty comprising experienced academicians and industry professionals who bring practical insights into the classroom. With the university's wide range of clubs, events, and cultural activities infusing dynamism into its campus life, each student can experience what it means to have opportunities for holistic development.
Internship Opportunities and Global Exposure
Experiential learning is a cornerstone of JKLU's educational philosophy. The university has established strong ties with leading organisations, providing students with opportunities for internships that offer hands-on experience in their chosen fields. Additionally, JKLU's global exposure initiatives, including opportunities to study for a semester at Hanyang University in South Korea and St. Cloud State University in the USA, equip students with a global perspective, enhancing their employability in an interconnected world.
Robust Placement Support
JKLU's commitment to student success extends beyond academics. The university's Office of Corporate Relations & Placements works proactively to connect students with potential employers, offering career counseling, resume building, and interview preparation services. The strong industry ties and the university's reputation ensure that graduates have access to a wide array of career opportunities.
With a future-ready curriculum, emphasis on 21st century skills, industry affiliations, and robust placement support systems, JKLU stands as a beacon for students aspiring to make a mark in the world.

The Award stands testimony to the strong dedication that AND Academy has shown to revolutionizing education and making highly sought-after design skills accessible and affordable for a wider set of learners across the country.

We've left no stone unturned to truly democratise upskilling in design, transforming the career trajectories of over 1000 learners already.

This award has only motivated us further to achieve our goal." Aside from coming from a strong design pedigree, a key distinguishing characteristic of courses at AND Academy is the importance the institute places on bridging the growing employment gap in the country by equipping learners with essential technical skills.

The stackability of these courses allows for seamless progression to advanced classes for those who wish to continue their learning journey. The duration of each course varies by discipline, typically ranging from 16 weeks to a year.

Pair-ie Tales Launches in India: A Purpose-Led Women's Footwear Brand Redefining Comfort, Style, and Sustainability
Gurgaon, Haryana, India (NewsVoir) India welcomes the launch of Pair-ie Tales, a new-age women's footwear brand built on the principles of comfort, character, and conscious design. Officially launched earlier this month, the brand marks its entry into the Indian lifestyle and fashion segment with a bold offering: fashion-forward footwear that delivers uncompromised comfort through its proprietary Cloud Comfort™ sole system- a triple-layered innovation engineered for real-life wearability. Born from the belief that footwear can be both expressive and supportive, Pair-ie Tales merges contemporary design with meaningful functionality. Every pair is crafted using premium faux leather, breathable linings, and ethically sourced components, reinforcing the brand's commitment to cruelty-free, sustainable fashion. The brand's packaging too reflects this ethos- 100% plastic-free, with each box designed as a storytelling-inspired keepsake, making the unboxing experience as personal as the pair itself. 'We started Pair-ie Tales with a very simple but strong conviction that women should not have to choose between how they look and how they feel,' said Gaurav Srivastava, Founder of Pair-ie Tales. 'Each design is rooted in the reality of women's lives- from busy commutes and long meetings to spontaneous plans and everything in between. Our shoes are meant to walk with you, not against you.' The brand name itself, Pair-ie Tales, is a thoughtful twist on the word 'fairy tales,' representing a larger mission- shifting the narrative from stories traditionally told about women to ones led and authored by them. Through this lens, each collection is designed to reflect a chapter in modern womanhood, celebrating resilience, individuality, and everyday expression. Pair-ie Tales offers an initial product range including flat sandals, everyday slip-ons, versatile heels, and bold statement pieces- all unified by their design aesthetic and all-day wearability. The brand operates as a digital-first business via and is headquartered in Gurgaon, India. 'This isn't just about shoes- it's about how women walk through the world. Our goal is to create footwear that adapts to life, reflects personality, and never asks you to compromise,' added Gaurav. As it enters the Indian fashion landscape, Pair-ie Tales positions itself as a label of belonging, empowerment, and bold comfort- an invitation to women everywhere to walk freely, feel fully, and step confidently into every chapter of their story.
