Ramkumar Ramamoorthy, former Chairman and Managing Director of Cognizant (India), will join the leadership team of Krea University in January 2021 as its first Pro Vice-Chancellor for Professional Learning.
Ramamoorthy will help drive the mission and long-term strategy of all professional programs—spanning Masters in Business Administration, executive education, as well as modularized and laddered advanced programs and micro-credentials that will add significant value to individuals, businesses, nations and society.
In addition to this role, as a part of the core leadership team, Ramkumar will help strengthen Krea's vision to be a teaching and research university that defines global benchmarks through interwoven-ness and experiential learning, while staying true to its core values of excellence, ethics, inclusivity and accountability.
Dr Sunder Ramaswamy, Vice Chancellor of Krea University said "Ramkumar brings to Krea a rare combination of three decades of industry, professional and academic experience. His deep appreciation of structural shifts across industries and newer models of learning and skilling will be a great asset to Krea and particularly to the Graduate School of Business, in our journey to enable high potential individuals to learn and create a positive, catalytic impact, ethically."
Ramamoorthy stated "I am truly excited to be part of the Krea team that strongly believes in the larger purpose of helping humanity prepare for an unpredictable world," said Ramkumar. "In a fast-paced world that is increasingly shaped by the interplay of humans, machines and the environment, learning throughout one's professional or entrepreneurial career is key to staying relevant while driving excellence and innovation. I am confident that the rich heritage of the Graduate Business School, Krea's pioneering interwoven learning model and strong legacy of core values will enable the alumni of the university to confidently embrace the future."
