Telangana’s WE Hub launches ‘campus-to-career’ programme to bridge education and employability gap

Women Entrepreneurs’ Hub or WE Hub in Hyderabad, the State-led nodal organisation for women entrepreneurs, has signed MoUs with over 20 academic institutions in Telangana to roll out its ‘campus-to-career’ initiative to bridge the gap between education and employability.

With youth workforce development as the aim, this flagship student-focused intervention will be implemented to strengthen industry readiness, employability, and career pathways for women students in the State, its CEO Sita Pallacholla said.

According to the CEO, the campus-to-career initiative aligns with the government’s budgetary emphasis on strengthening higher education outcomes, skilling youth for future industries, and building a resilient, future-ready workforce.

Through structured academic partnerships, WE Hub will enable colleges to integrate industry exposure, mentorship, and skill-based learning directly into campus ecosystems, and see that students graduate not just with degrees, but with direction.

“The recent Union Budget underscores a strong commitment to youth empowerment, education, and workforce readiness. WE Enable sits precisely at this intersection—where policy intent meets on-ground impact. Through campus-to-career, we are ensuring that young women are not only educated, but empowered with the skills, exposure, and confidence to lead Telangana’s future workforce,” she said.

The MoU s were signed with the following colleges: Methodist College of Engineering and Technology; RBVRR Women’s College of Pharmacy; Veeranari Chakali Illamma Women’s University; Vidya Jyothi Institute of Technology; Muffakham Jah College of Engineering and Technology; St. Joseph’s Degree & PG College for Women, Toli Chowki; Koneru Lakshmaiah Education Foundation; R.B.V.R.R Women’s College; St. Francis College for Women; St. Francis Institute of Management Studies; Malla Reddy College of Engineering; Sultan ul Uloom College of Pharmacy; Stanley College of Engineering and Technology for Women; Sultan ul Uloom College of Law; Woxsen University – School of Arts & Design; Ghulam Ahmed College of Education; G. Narayanamma Institute of Technology and Sciences; Amjad Ali Khan College of Business Administration; Government Degree College for Women, Begumpet; Sreenidhi University; and St. Joseph’s Degree & PG College, King Koti.

The collaboration is also significant as it expands the WE Hub’s urban student vertical, bringing together universities, engineering colleges, professional institutions, and women’s colleges from Hyderabad and Rangareddy districts.
