Students to gain sought-after industry skills in technology
Kuwait’s Gulf University for Science and Technology (GUST) has become the newest member of SAP University Alliances, thereby expanding its curricular to include hands-on technology training that will greatly enhance students’ career prospects after graduation.
With more than 3,000 members globally, the SAP University Alliances program provides universities with access to advanced technology solutions, training materials and support. Membership enables academia to educate the next generation to work in an experience economy and to prepare them for the SAP ecosystem. The programme also creates opportunities for the students to engage and build industry partnerships at SAP events.
“As part of our mission to prepare our students for success, we are always looking to create opportunities for them to expand their knowledge in real-world settings, and our membership enables them to participate in high-impact collaborations with like-minded students and SAP’s ecosystem partners,” commented Professor Bassam Alameddine, President, Gulf University for Science and Technology.
“SAP is focused on supporting Kuwait’s ambitious digitalization, sustainability and skills-development agenda, while also helping companies to leverage the enormous potential of cloud computing and Business AI. The SAP University Alliances program supports these objectives, serving as a perfect example of how academia and the public and private sectors can work together to develop a highly skilled sustainable workforce,” explained Sundus Bushahri, Managing Director, SAP Kuwait.
