Sisodia, who is also Delhi’s education minister, said that the admission process of the university will be such that DSEU (officials) will go to schools to enroll all those children who want to take up skill learning.

DSEU will focus on conducting a 360-degree assessment. While most universities continue with the old practice of admitting students based on grade lists, DSEU will be the first university in India that will focus on the overall interest, talent, and mindset for entrepreneurship. Such practice is new in India but not unpopular abroad, Mr. Sisodia said.

DSEU will provide the provision of internships and apprenticeships in different industries 50 percent of the time. If a child studies tourism, they can be attached to a tourism company. DSEU will provide a sense of security, confidence, and dignity, Mr. Sisodia added.
