Sai University

In today's ever-evolving educational landscape, liberal education through an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach provides students with the choice to learn what they love and build a career on it. This innovative teaching and learning model helps universities like Sai University (SaiU) offer a range of unique UG & PG programs that empower students with the knowledge and skills to connect and integrate knowledge from various learning disciplines. Liberal arts education is a learning approach that teaches students how to think independently and develop broad academic and intellectual abilities. It rests on a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach. Through liberal arts education, students get choices across streams, discover their true calling, and broaden their horizons. It provides a platform to learn how to connect and integrate knowledge and apply the learnings in real-world scenarios. While the traditional education model in India has stressed memorizing and reproducing information, liberal arts encourage creativity, critical thinking, good communication, and a love for learning. India’s National Education Policy (NEP), which had a revamp in 2020, has laid out a path for universities to adopt liberal art, discussion-based, and discovery-based mode of education. As a result, the NEP 2020 encourages a multidisciplinary education system that helps develop the creative and analytical sides of the brain simultaneously.
