Tetr has curated a globally immersive learning experience for students to live, and learn across 7 different countries including UAE, India, Singapore, Ghana, U.S, Brazil, and Italy over 4 years. As part of the program, students will get to study at the world's leading educational institutions INSEAD, France (FT rank 2), SDA Bocconi, Italy (FT rank 3); as well as NUS, Singapore (#1 in Asia), and IIT among others. Courses at Tetr will be taught by Global business and technology luminaries such as Daniel Garret Van Der Vliet (Executive Director, Cornell University), Manoj Kohli (Ex-CEO, Bharti Airtel & Softbank), Alexis Montesinos (Professor, MIT), Thorsten Truijens (Professor, Kellogg School of Management) and Nitin Gaur (Advisory Board Member, Stanford University).

The B-school has established a 1.6 million USD venture fund 'Tetr Launchpad' for aspiring entrepreneurs, complemented by mentorship from an extensive network of venture capitalists, founders, and industry leaders. The academic council of Tetr is led by Ivy League Professors and former global CXOs, such as the likes of Viney Sawhney (Professor, Harvard University), Edward Rogers (Former Chief Knowledge Officer, NASA), Faverie Stephane (Executive Group President, Estee Lauder) and Saud Swar (CBO, American Express, MENA), as part of the founding council.

"For prospective students from the Latin American region, growing interest in truly immersive learning experiences perfectly aligns with the nation's growing intention of cementing itself on the world's stage,"  shares Dr. Viney Sawhney, Professor of Finance, Harvard University. "I have never seen such a program in my academic experience, even at prestigious institutions like Harvard. This clearly indicates that traditional business education is due for an overhaul. Tetr's unique program addresses this gap with a curriculum that allows students to travel the world and learn business by doing business in a new country, each semester. I am excited to be working alongside a team that is pioneering a change in the world of business education globally."

As a part of its curriculum, Tetr will offer students a holistic understanding of how to build brands, investment portfolios, and make data driven decisions rooted in local cultural context, as they travel and study across the globe. Students will get an opportunity to build an eCommerce 'dropshipping' business in Dubai, leverage the Silicon Valley's ecosystem to launch a tech startup in the US and start a community driven project to design and sell a hardware product in Singapore. They will also get to learn content creation, community building and brand partnerships in Milan, launch green initiatives in the realm of EVs, wildlife conservation and renewable energy in Rio De Janeiro as well as build a consumer business catering to suburban audiences in India.

Set to commence the batch from September 2024, Tetr is offering full scholarships to 60 brightest undergraduates from across the world who will join the first batch. Out of this, 10 students will be from Latin American countries. Tetr will empower these individuals to develop the leadership required to pursue their chosen fields.  Backed by Tetr's entrepreneurial network, they'll have the resources to turn their visions into reality. The B school will also welcome top SAT scorers (top 1 percentile) and those who have turned down offers from prestigious universities.
