Pune KPIT Cummins Infosystems Ltd conducted an interactive session for students from developing countries where access to Information Technology is still at a nascent stage. Over a 100 students from countries including Bhutan, Fiji, Iraq, Bangladesh, Nepal, Ghana, Russia and Mongolia were introduced to the significance of the IT industry in the nation’s economy.

The event — held at the KPIT Cummins’ Hinjewadi campus for World Organisation of Student and Youth (WOSY) — offered valuable insights into the IT industry in India and career opportunities in it. At present, these students are pursuing various courses — Computer Science, IT, Management, Science and Commerce — in Pune University.
