Sunstone Launches ALTA School of Technology - AI-First Computer Science Program
In a bold move to redefine engineering education in India, Sunstone today announced the launch of ALTA School of Technology , an AI-First Computer Science program built to bridge the massive gap between traditional engineering education and real industry requirements. ALTA is the evolution of Sunstone Select , which was originally launched in 2023 as an experential engineering initiative by Sunstone. Over the past three years , Sunstone Select has successfully enrolled 600+ students across partner campuses, validating the need for a new-age, industry-aligned engineering model. Building on this proven foundation, the program now takes a sharper, future-ready identity as ALTA School of Technology . www.altaschool.tech Every year, over 1.5 million engineers graduate in India , yet less than 10% possess the hands-on skills required for AI-driven and product-based roles. ALTA is built to change that. “Sunstone Select showed us that students thrive when education is aligned with real industry practices. ALTA is the next evolution - AI-first, project-first, and future-first,” said Ashish Munjal , Founder of ALTA and Co-Founder & CEO of Sunstone. What Makes ALTA Different? ALTA is not a conventional UG Computer Science program. It is an AI-First, build-from-day-one Computer Science journey delivered in partnership with UGC/AICTE-approved institutes across India. From Coder to Hired - Built Into the Curriculum Unlike traditional colleges where placements are an afterthought, ALTA integrates career readiness into everyday learning through: Competitive coding culture (LeetCode, ICPC, GSoC) Mock interviews with MAANG mentors Portfolio-driven hiring approach 1000+ recruiting partners across product companies, startups, and unicorns Students at ALTA: Get free access to GPT, Claude, Gemini and 15+ AI tools Learn directly from MAANG engineers and industry practitioners Build and deploy 20+ real projects with live users Graduate with a GitHub portfolio stronger than a resume Complete a 6-month internship before graduation Unbox a MacBook on Day One Built on a Proven Foundation Since its launch in 2023 , Sunstone Select has enrolled 600+ students and demonstrated how experiential learning, industry mentorship, and project-based outcomes can dramatically improve engineering readiness. ALTA carries forward this legacy with a more focused identity dedicated entirely to AI-driven Computer Science education. “Our vision is simple, match the right students with the right learning, tools, and mentorship so they graduate industry ready from Day One,” said Harshit Agarwal , alum of IIT BHU, ISB - Director - Program at ALTA. Scholarships & Nationwide Rollout Admissions are now open for the 2026 batch across partner campuses. Students can apply through the ALTA Scholastic Aptitude Test (A-SAT) and are eligible for scholarships up to 100% tuition support based on merit and performance.
