The program aims to prepare students for both current and future industry needs in animation, visual effects, and gaming, according to university administrators. Students will also have a chance to get worldwide experience through international immersion and academic exchange programs. Graduates will receive a B.Design (Hons.) degree from GLS University as well as a professional certification from SAE Institute, giving them an advantage in the worldwide creative media sector.

Students can access GLS University's network for internships and projects, and also the worldwide SAE community, that provides guidance, networking, and collaboration options. During the launch, GLS University and Navitas manager stated that the program aims to connect Indian creative media education with worldwide standards while developing skilled individuals.
