UNIQUENESS OF OUR PROGRAMME:
 
The Institute through its executive training programmes provides a platform for practicing managers, academics and professionals to meet, interact and exchange concepts, ideas, and experiences in different fields of management. PGDM Students benefit by interacting with these participants and experts. Very few business schools in the country provide this opportunity. The alliance with the Kirloskar Group companies enables students to have hands-on experience as well as link theory to practice.
 
The thrust of the programme is to prepare true global managers – with capabilities to manage successfully in the fast changing global economy. Courses such as International Business Management, International Finance, and International Trade provide a platform for the students to strengthen their understanding of managing in the global context.
