If the human race had not dared to think beyond the status quo,
we would still be living in caves.
Unfortunately, most educational institutions are content
maintaining the status quo. However, as Zuckerberg eloquently
pointed out, such an approach endangers the future prospects
of their students.
Woxsen is different. We recognize that the world is changing
every day, every hour economically, politically, socially We
recognize that understanding the past and present is key to
dealing with the future. But, it is the future that we have to deal
with. And win.
The faculty and students at Woxsen go beyond the obvious, in
every way, on every day. We train ourselves to see things as they
could be, not as they are. To really think outside the limiting
lines.
And that is why we are so successful.
