Mumbai: CyberPowerPC India is expanding its focus within the education ecosystem, working with schools, colleges, universities and specialised institutes to help them build technology environments around the actual needs of their students and learning programmes. The company has already been working closely with institutions including Karnavati University, Gandhinagar, and Whistling Woods International, supporting their efforts to equip students with high-performance computing infrastructure for demanding creative and technology-led workflows.
The engagement marks a broader approach from CyberPowerPC India, which is looking to work with educational institutions from the technology planning stage rather than limiting its role to hardware procurement. The company first seeks to understand the learning modules being introduced, the applications students will use and the workloads they are expected to handle, and then recommends a technology setup aligned with those requirements.
For an institution introducing programmes around game development, animation, VFX, filmmaking, 3D design, AI or other computationally intensive disciplines, that could mean identifying where GPU-powered workstations are essential and where standard systems would be sufficient. In some environments, for instance, a lab could combine a high-performance GPU workstation with multiple standard PCs, creating a setup that is aligned to actual usage rather than applying the same configuration across every machine.
This approach is particularly relevant as schools and higher education institutions increasingly look beyond traditional computer labs. CyberPowerPC India is also engaging with K-12 institutions, organisations developing learning modules and Learning Management Systems (LMS), as well as companies providing broader learning solutions, with the aim of building technology ecosystems that bring hardware, software and learning requirements together.
“High-performance PCs have traditionally been associated with gaming, but the technology has a much broader role to play in education,” said Vishal Parekh, COO, CyberPowerPC India. “We are seeing institutions think more carefully about what they want their students to learn and the kind of environment they want to create. Our role is to understand those requirements and help them make informed decisions about the technology supporting them. If an institution wants to build a programme around game development, AI, VFX or 3D creation, the infrastructure needs to be designed around those ambitions. We want to be part of that conversation before the investment is made, not simply when it is time to purchase the hardware.”
Karnavati University, Gandhinagar, is expanding its academic offering around emerging technologies and creative skills, with a focus on preparing students for an increasingly technology-led world. Its programmes are designed to bring together creativity, technology and industry-oriented learning, reflecting the university’s ambition to develop talent capable of competing on a global stage and contributing to India’s growing creative and technology economy. As these disciplines become increasingly demanding from a computing perspective, the technology supporting the learning environment becomes an important part of that ambition.
Dr Kusum Agarwal, Dean Academics , Karnavati University, said, “At our University, we have always believed that delivering the best learning experience requires us to work with the best partners across every part of the ecosystem. Our focus is on giving students the environment and opportunities to excel, and that means being equally discerning about the technology that supports their learning. CyberPowerPC has established itself as a name synonymous with high-performance computing, and we trust their expertise to help us build the kind of technology infrastructure our students and programmes demand. We are confident that this partnership will give our students the performance, reliability and capabilities they need to turn their ideas into reality.”
