Nikhil Gandhi-led SKIL Infrastructure, which recently forayed into the education sector, will open 3 B-school campuses each at Greater Noida, Mumbai and Chennai.

The schools to be opened, in association with Scotland-based University of Strathclyde Business School, will offer undergraduate, postgraduate and MBA-level courses, the company today said.

The company would first come up with the Noida campus, that will be functional by September 2011. About 1,200 students are expected to join the campus, that would have about 40 internationally recognised staff from India and Glasgow.

The recruitment process for the staff would commence from next month.

SKIL, that runs the world's largest VSAT education network chain Everonn Education, feels that education is one of the critical social infrastructure gaps in India that needs to be brigaded to be able to realise the full potential of its demographic dividend.

"Our focus is to provide quality as well as quantity education. The establishment of Strathclyde will contribute to the enhancement of the skill-sets and knowledge levels of the Indian management students," SKIL's Group Chairman, Nikhil Gandhi, said in a statement here.
