Anant University

Established in 2016 as India’s first design university, Anant National University aims to become one of the top universities in India by 2025, leading in the fields of design, built habitat, and sustainability, while being recognized for its Indian roots and global standing.


The proposed School of Future Technologies focuses on design elements in emerging technologies and plays a vital role in the university’s vision of providing students with opportunities to connect with communities, identify and solve problems, and grow as well-rounded designers who are effective communicators, critical thinkers, and inclusive leaders prepared for a rapidly changing world. The Bharti Airtel Foundation supports the development of this school’s infrastructure.
