Universal AI University’s History
Under the Universal AI institution, Karjat Act, 2022, the Universal AI University—previously the Universal Business School—evolved into a full-fledged institution with a focus on artificial intelligence in 2023. The initiative was prompted by the growing demand for AI professionals in the Indian and global labor markets, along with the growing integration of AI into various sectors, including manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and government. Universal AI University, Karjat Act, passed by the state government of Maharashtra in 2022, accorded the institute official university status. The autonomy and framework needed to establish AI-focused research projects, industry collaborations, and courses became available with this legislative provision.
