The Ahmedabad University TeachOut - 2021 is an invitation to enter our classrooms for one day.
TeachOut is envisaged as an event where students can gain a first-hand experience of Ahmedabad University, while engaging with eminent faculty. Each session offers an opportunity to take away new learnings, discover powerful ideas and connect with distinguished faculty, many of whom have come to Ahmedabad from prestigious universities across the world.
This year, TeachOut is themed around a liberal education that emphasizes specialized, deep knowledge of your chosen field and perspectives across a wide range of disciplines.
In the sessions of the day, you explore interdisciplinary learning, get to know about new-age domains and skills, and discover how you can make your University experience more deep and fulfilling. Whether you are interested in Business, Humanities, Social Sciences, Physical Sciences or Engineering, liberal studies could be for you. At Ahmedabad University, while you work towards your degree, all Schools and Centres of the institution are open to you, enabling you to be true to your own interests.
Join curated sessions with our Vice Chancellor, Deans and distinguished faculty and experience learning with a difference.
