EMC Student Ambassador Program

The EMC Academic Alliance (EAA) program, collaboration with colleges and universities worldwide, was created to address the skills gap resulting from the growing volume and complexity of data. This sharp increase in data creation and the heightened importance of storing, protecting, and managing it, has elevated information storage as a central function of the IT infrastructure. There is no cost to the institute to join the EMC Academic Alliance (EAA) program. EMC has a history of corporate giving, in-kind contributions, and volunteerism. As part of the program, EMC offers the unique open Information Storage and Management (ISM) curriculum to the education institutes. This curriculum focuses on concepts and principles of information storage technologies, rather than on specific products.
