In a significant development, Union Minister for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship Jayant Chaudhary has suggested the establishment of a Centre of Excellence for Visual Effects (VFX), Gaming, and Audio-Visual sectors within the Young India Skill University in Telangana. The proposal was made during a meeting with Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy in Hyderabad last evening.
The proposed centre is aimed at enhancing the skills of students from Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) in the state, providing them with the necessary training and exposure to excel in these rapidly growing sectors. The Centre of Excellence will be part of the Young India Skill University, a prestigious institution focused on vocational and technical education based in Telangana.
The Chief Minister, A Revanth Reddy, has requested support from the Central Government for the proposed university, emphasizing its potential to contribute significantly to skill development in the state. The discussions between the Union Minister and the Chief Minister also covered other related issues, although further details have not been disclosed at this time.
This move is expected to create a conducive environment for fostering talent in the field of VFX, Gaming, and Audio-Visual sectors, which are increasingly important in India’s growing media and entertainment industry. The Centre of Excellence is likely to attract both domestic and international students, offering them an opportunity to gain expertise in these cutting-edge fields.
With the proposed centre, Telangana aims to establish itself as a hub for skill development and technological innovation in the realm of visual effects, gaming, and audio-visual sectors. The decision is also expected to boost the state’s economy by creating jobs and stimulating investment in these high-growth industries.
As the details of the proposed Centre of Excellence are finalized and construction begins, students and professionals in these fields can look forward to a world-class educational experience right here in Telangana. The centre is set to open its doors in the near future, providing a much-needed boost to skill development and innovation in India’s burgeoning media and entertainment industry.
