Sujalaam Skycity: Where knowledge soars!

How can a township that promises to herald in Bengal’s bright future be complete without a robust educational infrastructure?
Keeping in mind the fact that Sujalaam Skycity is aimed at becoming the perfect blend of life and work, it is but obvious that the aerotropolis will make sure its young residents are geared up for the bright and challenging future ahead.
Therefore, cutting-edge institutions in and around the Skycity will serve the dual purpose of both fuelling the industrial and commercial zones coming up within the township through a steady supply of bright and accomplished leaders and also set an example of first-rate education in the State.
Just to put things in perspective, it has to be mentioned that the township already has 17 engineering colleges, two deemed universities, 18 polytechnics and management institutes within its immediate and extended catchment area. These formidable institutions produce over 15,000 English-speaking graduates per annum, of whom around 80% are from technical streams.
A four-hour drive from the Skycity will take you to Kharagpur IIT, the world-famous seat of learning.  Visva-Bharati, one of the Nation’s largest Central Government-funded autonomous universities set up by none other than Rabindranath Tagore himself, neighbours the aerotropolis.
In Dhanbad, only 89 kilometers away, are the Indian School of Mines, Central Mining Research Institute and Central Fuel Research Institute.
Sujalaam’s Education Skycity, which will cater to about 15,000 students, will complement this array of mighty educational establishments.
Realising its potential as a thriving hub of life and work in the coming years, the Narayana Group of Educational Institutions is already coming up with a Boarding School at Sujalaam Skycity to further bolster the region’s education scenario.
Narayana Group, which is Asia’s largest educational conglomerate with more than 300,000 students in over 500 centres, is spread across 13 states. In the Skycity, the group has already begun constructing a Day Boarding School on 3.25 acres, a vast enterprise in its own right.

Clearly, the first chapter of a glorious history of skills and knowledge is already being written at Sujalaam Skycity.
