BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Jan. 11 (Korea Bizwire) — EdifyOnline, an education technology company, announced today that it has signed a multi-year contract with MIT-WPU (Dr. Vishwanath Karad MIT World Peace University, India), with the sole objective to collaborate and build a virtual center of scientific and educational research focused to meet the challenges of the present and the future, to deliver online education programs that are both sustainable and scalable.
“EdifyOnline is pleased to partner with MIT-WPU.

MIT-WPU prides itself on offering a holistic education catering to an individual’s educational, physical, as well as spiritual well-being.

This transforms the students into winning personalities, making them physically fit, mentally alert, intellectually sharp and spiritually elevated.
“This partnership represents a paradigm shift in online education and will be a critical component of what drives the success of our online programs moving forward,” said Shri Rahul Karad, Executive President of MIT-WPU and a visionary behind this agreement to raise the bar for online education around the world. ”With the help of EdifyOnline, I envision building collaborative relationships with U.S. universities to enable students on both sides to spend a semester on respective campuses, exposing them to international culture, knowledge, and understanding.”
“In the last six months of 2021, MIT-WPU faculty and international faculty provided by EdifyOnline worked diligently for the benefit of our students on more than 100 courses. We are excited to quadruple our collaboration in 2022,” said Dr. R.M. Chitnis, Vice Chancellor, MIT-WPU.
