ABOUT THE
BACHELOR ACCELERATOR
PROGRAM
Studying abroad is a dream for many students and their parents but due to the high cost of
education, it has been tough for many students to pursue the same during their undergraduate
studies. upGrad in collaboration with its Australian partner BSchool, has built a unique online
study accelerator – the Bachelor Accelerator Program. This program results in significant cost
savings for students, equivalent degrees and similar post study work visa opportunities
accessed by graduates of a standard Australian 3-year Bachelor degree.

In the Bachelor Accelerator Program, students will pursue cutting-edge curriculum online on
upGrad’s leading learning platform which supports even low bandwidth consumption of
content. In addition to recorded content and reading material, students will daily attend live
lectures, small group coaching classes and doubt resolution sessions. Successful completion of
this program provides students with opportunities to complete the remainder of their
undergraduate degree in top ranking universities including, Deakin University (QS World
University Rankings 2021 rank 275), Swinburne University of Technology (QS World University
Rankings 2021 rank 372) and University of Canberra (QS World University Rankings 2021 rank
456). upGrad will support students in their end-to-end journey to study in Australia, through
tutoring, doubt resolution and mentoring to ensure successful completion of the accelerator
program, application to Australian universities, IELTS tutoring, GTE preparation and Visa
application. Students will receive a Diploma of Leadership and Management on successful
completion of the Bachelor Accelerator Program. This diploma will be used by participating
universities to confirm credit and provide offer letters to students.

much needed disruption that will have a far-reaching impact. At upGrad, we are working
towards transforming this online education wave into a tsunami! We are taking a full-stack
approach of leveraging content, technology, marketing and services to offer quality education
at scale in partnership with universities abroad and academics to offer a rigorous and industry
relevant program.

Through our partnerships with universities abroad, we are building a portfolio of unique study
abroad programs which will help parents and students in leveraging online learning to study
flexibly at an affordable cost for part of the program in India and then transfer to a foreign
university campus to complete their degree abroad. These programs not only reduce costs for
students and parents but also provide potential opportunities for graduates to work in
destination countries through post study work visas.

Our aim is simple:
We strive to create
high-impact, hands on
experiences that
future-proof workforces, by
delivering impact at scale.

ABOUT
BSCHOOL

BSchool is a Global Online Business School that creates Accelerator and Qualifying Programs,
Short Courses and Experiences that accelerate the transformation of individuals and companies
to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world. In the next two-decades, we will encounter
the greatest transitions any generation has ever had to face. Technological disruption is reshap-
ing every industry and every business model we’ve ever known. Many are now questioning if
the rigidness of current institutional education is meeting the ever-changing needs of organisa-
tions. The world urgently needs a new mindset and tools to overcome the challenges of this
disruption. We need to empower emerging leaders to solve future business challenges by
helping them develop their key mindsets and skills. There’s no silver bullet or magic wand for
big organisational transformation to meet these challenges. But there is a path. BSchool has
broken down large-scale change into a series of discrete but interconnected programs leading
to new individual behaviours and transformative shifts of an organisation by shaping capability
development. Through immersion in our uniquely designed accelerator and qualifying
programs, future leaders will find our education is scientific, contextual and based on the latest
global research. Our online programs are truly transformational and have been built to address
the challenges of what many are calling the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Our goal in every program is to:
DRIVE DYNAMIC THINKING.
INSPIRE CREATIVE DOING.

BSchool has partnered with upGrad to bring the Bachelor Accelerator Program to India.
