Emerging Technologies
A Booming Job Market:
India’s tech industry is undergoing a major transformation, and the demand for skilled talent in emerging technologies is skyrocketing.
The Indian IT sector, already employing over 5.4 million professionals, is projected to cross $300 billion in revenues by FY26. After a brief slowdown in 2024, hiring is expected to rebound in 2025, with AI, cybersecurity, cloud computing, DevOps, and data science leading the charge.
According to industry reports:
Fresher hiring is set to reach 74%, with companies actively seeking candidates who are trained in next-gen tech.
A 20% increase in tech job roles is expected in 2025, driven by the rapid adoption of automation, AI, and digital platforms.
Non-metro cities like Coimbatore, Jaipur, Madurai, and Visakhapatnam are emerging as new tech hiring hubs, spreading opportunities beyond traditional IT cities.
What This Means for You:
This will give students a Hands-on experience in technologies like AI, machine learning, full stack development, and cybersecurity will give you a competitive edge. Certifications, real-world projects, and internships are more valuable than ever.
The Path Ahead:
With companies ramping up skilling budgets and tech roles diversifying rapidly, this is the ideal time to build future-ready talent. Whether you’re a student planning your next step, a parent looking to guide your child, or a faculty member designing a curriculum—the future belongs to those who learn emerging technologies today.
India remains one of the youngest nations in the world, presenting a powerful opportunity to transform our demographic advantage into economic growth through future-ready skill development.
The Numbers That Matter:
- With a median age of just 29.5 years (2023), India is far younger than countries like China (~39.8) and Japan (~49.5).
- Over 50% of India’s population is below the age of 25, and nearly 65% fall within the working-age group (15–64 years).
- This youthful energy gives India a decade-long window to become the world’s talent powerhouse—if the right skills are nurtured.
Why This Is Important:
- As other global economies age, India’s young workforce is in high demand. However, only around 4–5% of Indian youth currently receive formal vocational training, highlighting a major gap in employability.
- This is where institutions play a vital role.

Why there is a need to learn new Technologies?
Though frequent changes are happening in the curriculum and Universities are trying hard to keep up the pace with an industry updated curriculum, technology advancements are so rapid that it is impossible to stay abreast given the existing University structure. By the time a student completes his or her graduation, the technology changes would be in such a manner that there will be no correlation of what they have learned and what the industry wants.
In order to ensure that any student or candidate end up securing a good career and life, they have to learn new and emerging technologies on top of their existing curriculum. This will ensure they are able to reap the benefits of better opportunities for highly skilled people. It will also ensure the student will hold a general degree as well as a specialization while graduating from the Institution.
