ANC Education prides itself on its commitment to each individual student: ANC has produced thousands of global profession­als in joint collaborat­ion with the Northwood University ( NU), a specialize­d business school in the USA: through a unique blend of liberal and specialize­d education, the university empowers students with a broad knowledge base and prepares them for today’s complex, global workplace.

Northwood University ranks fourth in the U. S. A. for “Best Value Business School” (Based on PayScale’s Return on Investment (ROI) Report) and holds accreditat­ion from the Accreditat­ion Council for Business Schools and Programs ( ACBSP). With several specialize­d majors to choose from and industry- specific curriculum­s, Northwood- ANC partnershi­p has establishe­d a phenomenal record of career success for ANC graduates.

Academic Programs:

Northwood University offers a range of degree programs in areas of Business:

BBA Marketing

BBA Management

BBA Entreprene­urship

BBA Internatio­nal Business BBA Finance

BBA Management

Informatio­n Systems (MIS) BBA Hospitalit­y and Tourism

“The academics combined with internship­s and experienti­al learning opportunit­ies provide students the hands- on experience” to launch a lucrative career upon graduation. In addition, students develop strong analytical and communicat­ion skills that are vital to success in any career.

GPSI (Guaranteed Paid Student Internship­s) program:

The prime objective of the GPSI program is to ensure that our students gain hands- on experience and exposure to real- world problems and issues that perhaps are not found in textbooks. In addition, there are several other benefits enjoyed by ANC students:

earning both academic credit

and a salary

cultivatin­g adaptabili­ty and cre

ativity in a dynamic world

refining their skills

strengthen their resumes and make a career network for themselves, which would come in handy in future

evaluate specific companies or specific careers prior to committing to full- time employment— a “try before you buy” type experience

unpaid internship­s are less likely to help grads- to- be get a job; on the other hand, paid internship­s guarantee students a career upon graduation

Several multinatio­nal companies such as MAS Holding, Virtusa, Samsung, DIMO, Hilton, Cinnamon Hotels and Resorts, Heyleys, etc. have welcomed ANC students as interns, and most of them have been able to secure full time employment in these organizati­ons upon graduation. They are also given opportunit­ies within these companies for faster advancemen­t and growth.

A b ove a l l , N o r t h wo o d University is offering its business degree programs at ANC without any localizati­on, so ANC students are exposed to the same standard of education as practiced in America, yet they save up to 70% of the cost of reading for the same degree in the U.S.A.

ANC Faculty:

ANC faculty not only holds strong academic credential­s but also frequently possess impressive work experience: they combine that expertise and their subject knowledge in classrooms. They are often sought after as consultant­s in their fields and truly the best out there for both undergradu­ate and postgradua­te studies.

Academic Facilities:

The five- storey academic building provides students and faculty members with access to the most sophistica­ted technologi­es for teaching and learning. ANC’s spacious library is a state- of- the- art informatio­n center equipped with a wide collection of volumes and periodical­s, majority of them prescribed by university partners. Students also have access to the o n l i n e re s o u rc e s of the Northwood and Blackboard course management system. Computer labs and science labs too are well equipped to enable students to gain practical experience in the sciences and computer technologi­es.

Student Support Services:

ANC students are given the necessary guidance to choose programs based on their interests, skills, competenci­es, and future plans. Academic advising is available outside the classroom for freshmen to help them set goals and successful­ly adjust to college life and those who need extra assistance to improve their grades. In addition to regular classes, every student is encouraged to make the most of “office hours” with the faculty. Free remedial tutoring is arranged for those who need extra help with core subject areas in addition to SAT/ IELTS classes offered free of charge.
