Casting the pillars of the future

A rewarding relationshipÉcole Central Paris (now CentraleSupélec) strongly believes that Higher Education and Research are the keys for ensuring a future that is sustainable.

École’s pedagogy, knowledge, and experience earned over 180 plus years will enable us to shape the innovation ecosystem of the next century. École Central Paris (now CentraleSupélec) is very proud to be associated with Mahindra for this impactful initiative.

Hervé BiausserPresident, CentraleSupélecVice Chairman, Mahindra École Centrale

Leaders’ Speak

The common challenge has been talent management, quality of talent, and a need for an engineering student who is willing to change, transform, adapt and become a global manager. We at Mahindra, have continuously sought answers to this challenge and set up a world class institute in India. Our main objective is to look at globalization, realizing the needs of the industry, and bring you the best faculty and the best academia.

CP GurnaniMember, Executive Committee (MEI) &Managing Director and CEO, Tech Mahindra

Knowledge without boundaries

We have looked at various ways of improving the quality of education; through greater emphasis on basic sciences and much greater interaction in the application of those sciences to actual life. We have secured a collaboration with one of the finest engineering schools in France. We are not satisfied in getting only a top class engineer, what we want is a business leader, for which we train students in Humanities, Economics, History, Philosophy; so that they get a holistic education and learn to relate the technical sciences to the environment of business in which they are going to be functioning.

Vineet NayyarChairman, Mahindra Educational InstitutionsChairman, Executive Committee, Mahindra École Centrale

It gives me immense pleasure to introduce you to the pilot batch (2014-2018) of Mahindra École Centrale (MEC).

This batch represents an enthusiastic and committed group of young Engineers - Leaders, Entrepreneurs, and

Innovators, ready to deploy their learning and make a difference to both industry and society.

The class of 2014-18, the inaugural batch, is a vibrant group of students from different areas of specialization with

a keen aptitude. They have been rigorously imbibing the best of what MEC has to offer. They are industry-ready

and future-ready engineers who have been raised in an environment of multi-cultural immersion. Each student

has learnt the basics of the French language and many have a high level of proficiency in the same.

The ethos of MEC being that of creating Leaders who Accept No Limits, Entrepreneurs who Drive Positive Rise

Change and Innovators who adopt Alternative Thinking; the students have been led through each paradigm to

imbibe and reflect similar qualities. I am fully confident that this batch of students is geared to add exceptional

value to any organization across the world.
