The Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University (DSEU) announced the commencement of a residential software programming programme on Tuesday in an effort to make skilling aspirational, accessible, and inclusive for women and trans women.
The university said in a statement that the fully-funded residential 20-month advanced diploma course in software programming will be held in conjunction with non-profit organisation NavGurukul.
Atishi, Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Education and MLA from Kalkaji seat, inaugurated the programme, which had 84 pupils in its inaugural batch.
“We are in the 21st century surrounded by technology where Google answers all our questions in mere seconds and yet we are to spend 14 years in the formal education system. Those 14 years tell us what one can and cannot study. With this programme in coding and programming, the effort is to challenge these notions by encouraging students with strong logic to pursue a career in the tech world,” Atishi said.
The six-month residential programme will provide girls and trans women with an opportunity to learn and flourish in the technical world, according to the statement.
