New Delhi -04/02/2026– India produces more than 1.5 million engineering graduates every year — yet fewer than 10% are considered job-ready for AI-driven and product-based roles. Addressing this growing gap, Sunstone has announced the launch of ALTA School of Technology, an AI-First Computer Science program designed to align engineering education with real-world industry needs.
ALTA is the next evolution of Sunstone Select, Sunstone’s experiential engineering initiative launched in 2023. Over the last three years, Sunstone Select enrolled more than 600 students across partner campuses, validating demand for a more practical, industry-aligned learning model. Building on this foundation, ALTA now emerges as a focused, future-ready Computer Science program with AI at its core.

From Traditional Degrees to AI-First Learning
Unlike conventional undergraduate programs, ALTA follows a build-from-day-one approach. The curriculum is delivered in partnership with UGC/AICTE-approved institutes across India and emphasizes hands-on development, real projects, and career readiness right from the start.
According to Ashish Munjal, Founder of ALTA and Co-Founder & CEO of Sunstone:
“Sunstone Select showed us that students thrive when education mirrors real industry practices. ALTA is the next evolution — AI-first, project-first, and future-first.”
What Makes ALTA Different?
ALTA integrates career preparation directly into daily learning, rather than treating placements as a final-year activity.
Students benefit from:
- Competitive coding exposure (LeetCode, ICPC, GSoC)
- Mock interviews with MAANG mentors
- Portfolio-driven hiring instead of resume-only screening
- Access to 1000+ recruiting partners including startups, product firms, and unicorns
In addition, ALTA students receive:
- Free access to GPT, Claude, Gemini, and 15+ AI tools
- Mentorship from MAANG engineers and industry practitioners
- Opportunities to build and deploy 20+ real-world projects
- A strong GitHub portfolio by graduation
- A mandatory 6-month internship before completing the program
- A MacBook provided on Day One
The goal is simple: graduates who are job-ready from the moment they step out of college.
Built on a Proven Model
Since 2023, Sunstone Select demonstrated how experiential learning, industry mentorship, and project-based outcomes can significantly improve engineering preparedness. ALTA carries this legacy forward with a sharper focus on AI-driven Computer Science education.
Harshit Agarwal, Director – Program at ALTA, shared:
“Our vision is to match the right students with the right learning, tools, and mentorship so they graduate industry-ready from Day One.”
Admissions Open for 2026 Batch
Admissions for the 2026 intake are now open across partner campuses nationwide. Students can apply through the ALTA Scholastic Aptitude Test (A-SAT) and may qualify for scholarships offering up to 100% tuition support based on merit and performance.
