Testimonials
Dhiraj Rajaram, Founder, Mu Sigma
I am delighted to announce our partnership with RV University’s School of Computer Science and Engineering. RV University is a storied Institution that has contributed scholars and professionals to India and the world for over 8 decades. The School of Computer Science and Engineering at RV University will be a new avenue for the University to contribute to nation building. We are proud to partner with the University to launch the B.Sc (Hons) program in Decision Sciences. In a world that is becoming increasingly chaotic and uncertain, we need a science for decision making. Over the past 18 years, we, at Mu Sigma, have been developing the tools and capabilities to equip leaders to become better problem solvers and decision makers. With this partnership, we look forward to educating our promising young talent in the art and science of making effective decisions. Once again, I congratulate the team of RV University and School of Computer Science and Engineering for this much needed initiative.
