“LTSU isn’t just producing skilled youth — we are raising ethically passionate leaders for India’s future,” says Anu Kaushal, Training Director & Communications at Lamrin Tech Skills University.

What makes Lamrin Tech Skills University stand out in today’s education landscape?

Lamrin Tech Skills University stands apart because of its founding principle — “A Class for Masses.” We exist to empower youth at scale, providing quality, skill-based education that actually leads to employability.

The biggest differentiator is that LTSU is shaped by industry minds and aligned with industry demands — a university where relevance is the curriculum. This is not symbolic; it is concrete.

Our global partners — IBM, L&T, ICA Edu Skills — are on campus, training students directly, building curriculum, mentoring, and shaping learning outcomes to meet international skill standards. Collaborations with NSDC and IIT Ropar strengthen this ecosystem, linking national skilling frameworks with research, innovation, and industry-ready training.

“LTSU doesn’t prepare students for the industry. The industry prepares students at LTSU.”

LTSU calls itself a skills-first university. How do you implement that philosophy on the ground?

We believe skills are not learned—they are practiced. At LTSU, students train in environments that mirror real industry floors:

  • IBM Innovation Lab
  • L&T-driven engineering and construction technologies
  • ICA Edu Skills-led business and finance training
  • NSDC-aligned certification pathways
  • Live projects under industry mentors
  • Collaboration-driven learning with IIT Ropar

Students don’t wait for internships to experience industry culture — they live it every semester. We ensure students develop not just technical skills, but also soft skills, communication abilities, and workplace behavior expected in high-demand global roles.

 

Leadership and character-building seem embedded in LTSU’s culture. How intentional is that?

Extremely intentional. Technical excellence alone cannot build strong professionals. We want our graduates to lead teams, manage people, and create workplaces rooted in dignity and respect.

I often say: “At LTSU, we are raising not just leaders — we are raising ethically passionate leaders.”

Skill gives you competence. Ethics give you character. The combination gives you long-term success. Our mission reflects this beautifully: to skill young leaders through the transformative power of scientific education, liberal arts, and our rich heritage. This balance — skill + values — is what makes our students unique in the global workforce.

“Ethical strength is a skill too. And at LTSU, it’s a non-negotiable one.”

LTSU is often called one of India’s fastest-emerging, industry-led universities. How do these collaborations benefit students?

Collaborations are our backbone. Partnerships with IBM, L&T, ICA Edu Skills, NSDC, and academic engagements with IIT Ropar give students:

  • Real-world exposure
  • Curriculum built by industry experts
  • Practical training from global mentors
  • Placement opportunities in emerging tech and engineering sectors
  • Certifications that hold international value

Instead of students running after employers, employers come looking for LTSU-trained youth. That’s the power of being an industry-rooted university — something very few institutions can claim honestly.

What personally drives you in your role as Training Director & Communications?

I’ve always believed that education can rewrite the story of a life. Every time I see a young student from a small town walk into a global-tech conversation with confidence, competence, and clarity — I feel the impact we’re creating.

What keeps me going is the fact that LTSU is not just building careers. We are building character, courage, and ethical leadership in our youth. When a student grows into a skilled, ethical, emotionally balanced professional, you realize this is not just education — this is transformation.

“When skills meet ethics, students don’t just succeed — they shine because skill makes you capable. Ethics make you credible.”

If you had to describe LTSU in one powerful line for our readers, what would it be?

“LTSU is shaping a future where India’s youth are skilled like the world’s best — and grounded like the nation’s finest.”

Your closing message for students, parents, and industry?

To students: Skill yourself so well that opportunity has no choice but to follow you.
To parents: Choose an environment that prepares your child for life, not just a degree.
To industry: Partner with us. The workforce you dream of is being trained here.
To young India: lead with skill, stand with ethics, rise with courage. 

Lamrin Tech Skills University stands beyond the idea of a university — it is architecting India’s skilled and ethical future.
