For Higher Education

The faculty room is where the next decade gets decided.

We work with universities, institutes, and research labs to build internal AI capability — not as a one-off workshop, but as a culture change that outlasts a vice-chancellor's term.

Engagement models

Three ways we walk into your campus.

Every engagement starts with a campus visit and a frank conversation with your department heads.

Most chosen
🧑‍🏫
Faculty fellowship · 01 / 03

20–40 faculty, six months, lasting culture change

Applied AI research lab · 02 / 03

A real lab, jointly branded, on your campus

We help you stand up an applied AI research lab — student researchers, faculty advisors, real industry briefs from our network.

🎓

AI literacy and applied AI as transcript credit

We co-design a credit-bearing track with your registrar and department heads. NASCA × WSF certificate alongside your transcript.

📊

Public outcomes

We publish what worked, with consent, every year. Helps your accreditation and ours.

In year one our faculty stopped being afraid of AI. In year two they started teaching with it. In year three they started publishing research with it. NASCA stayed the whole way.

Questions we get a lot.

Are you accredited?+

Yes — NASCA is accredited by the World STEM Federation. Our college engagements ladder toward a WSF accreditation pathway for your campus.

Can we run this for one department first?+

Yes. Most flagship engagements begin with a single department-level pilot before a campus-wide rollout in year two.

How is this priced?+

By cohort size and engagement model. Faculty fellowships start in the low six figures (₹/USD); flagship campus engagements are priced annually.

What about open-source / public university budgets?+

We have a dedicated public-institution rate card and grant-application support. Many of our public-system partners came in this way.

Your faculty room. Our six-month playbook.

The first conversation is always with a senior member of the team. No sales engineer, no funnel.
