Why this session

Where GRC fits in a tech career

GRC is a field with real and growing demand in India. It increasingly touches every tech role as AI governance and data protection regulation, such as the DPDP Act, reshape the industry. This session gives students a realistic picture before they lock into a narrow view of what a CS career looks like.

What the session covers

  • The gap between what students expect a CS career to look like and what the field demands today
  • A plain language introduction to governance, risk and compliance, and where it sits relative to security, audit and engineering roles
  • A live look at the demand and supply gap in IT, AI and GRC hiring
  • A short interactive self assessment: see in real time which type of role you lean toward, and how that shifts by the end of the session

What you walk away with

  • A clearer, realistic picture of GRC as a career path
  • A personal snapshot of your current career role leaning
  • Access to further self paced learning resources if you want to go deeper
