Case Study: CHRIST University improves graduate employability with Qlik Academic Program

Qlik Academic Program improves university students’ employability

Christ University Bengaluru runs a two‑year MBA Business Analytics program led by Dr. Lakshmi Shankar Iyer that aims to make graduates industry‑ready. Faced with students from diverse academic backgrounds and the need to deliver relevant, job‑aligned technical skills, the university sought a learning platform that would support hands‑on analytics training and improve student employability.

Christ University deployed the Qlik Academic Program across its post‑graduate courses, giving students and faculty free access to Qlik software, training and certification. The user‑friendly, low‑code platform was easy to integrate into teaching, quickly built students’ data skills, and led to higher placement prospects—illustrated by alumni success stories, stronger recruiter interest, and improved program recognition.
