Indore Management Institute Introduces Academia Industry Interface

June 12, 2010 - PRLog -- Competition is growing and in order to mark its presence in global market India needs to produce more and more professionals with absolute global business IQ. But, current day academic scenario doesn’t entirely fulfil this requirement of practical exposure in students and they need to spend considerable time gaining experience in practical world, even after completion of their degrees, to be able to manage the industries skilfully. This gape can be filled well if management institutes and industries can work together with each other to train the aspiring professionals in real business atmosphere during their education. This will make them fully confident and strong enough to produce competitive result while them complete their qualification.

With similar views and betterment of its students’ future prospects, Indore Management Institutes (IMI) has introduced Academia Industry Interface in its syllabus of business management courses like MBA, BBA, PGDM and others.

IMI, formerly Indore Management Institute, is Central India’s first & only institute which is offering Academia Industry Interface to strengthen the prospects of its Management Students by improving employability of its students in industries.

“Indore Management institute & research centre again proved its excellence in providing quality education & better job opportunities by introducing this industrial interface in its syllabus” says Mr. Pradeep, the Administrator at IMI, “the basic motto of this interface is to update the present MBA syllabus as per industry demand.” He adds.

The gap between what they are taught in the management institutes and what the industry actually demands is broadening every year and this is evident by the problems and low growth scale which these students have to face in real working environment. “Indore Management Institute identified this gap and directly approached the industry to ask them what they want from the candidates to fulfill the gap and develop the students accordingly.” Informs Pradeep.

When Mr. Jayant, one of the directors of Indore Management Institute was asked about this Academia Industry Interface program, said “It has proved to be more productive than it we had expected it to be. The suggestions, guidelines, opinions and output we receive from the top Managers, CEOs and heads of various organizations are outstanding and gave us a great insight into the present working scenario”.  when asked if the interface has showed any sign of improvement in its students, the Director informed that “We are experiencing very promising results of this research”

The correspondent also talked to some students of Indore Management Institute and found that this Academia Industry Interface has proved a boon to the student’s development and is being highly appreciated by them. The major industrial participants in this efforts are HDFC, AVIVA, IDBI, LIC, ICICI, TATA, PRATIBHA SYANTEX, STNADARD CHARTERED and some other reputed industries.
