IPMX Pedagogy
IPMX has an exciting academic schedule spread over four
terms. The programme provides a firm grounding in
concepts of general management and offers opportunities
to students to specialise in their areas of interest.
Initial part of the IPMX calendar focuses on building the
foundation by making the participants comfortable with
the fundamentals of economics, operations management,
management accounting, decision making techniques,
marketing, strategic management and international
business communication. This is achieved through
classroom discussions, case studies and role playing
exercises. Later part of the programme allows the students
to choose subjects based on their long-term career plan
and develop a deeper understanding. At this stage the
teaching pedagogy focuses more on applying academic
framework to real life problems and extensive industry
interactions.
Throughout the programme, students work on joint
projects and assignments with their assigned peers. During
the academic year, students go through as many as 50 team
projects and assignments. A continuous flow of information
on the latest industry best practices is maintained by
workshops and speeches delivered by senior management
from the corporate world and industry experts. These
workshops go a long way in helping the students stay
connected with the industry and gain valuable insights.

International Module
Global competition has forced businesses to revolutionise their management strategies in
order to function across multiple geographies. The increasing rates of change, technological
advances, shorter product life cycles, and high-speed communications have all contributed
to this paradigm shift. In such a dynamic environment, there is an augmented need of
managers who can work seamlessly to bridge geographical, social and cultural gaps to realise
every prospect. International immersion helps tomorrow's leaders make and manage a
winning global team by effectively leveraging sound understanding of international team
dynamics to overcome these geographical, social and cultural distances. In the past IPMX
students have undertaken their international modules with reputed institutions like ESCP
Paris, McGill University, Canada and Kelley school of Business, Indianapolis.
The IPMX class of 2013 would undergo the international immersion in collaboration with
Kelley School of Business, Indianapolis, USA. Founded in 1920 as the Indiana University
School of Commerce and Finance, the Kelley School of Business has grown into one of the
most prestigious business schools in the world. The programmes at Kelley School of
Business are consistently ranked among the best in the world and resident faculty members
are internationally recognised for knowledge, vast experience and thought leadership.

The academic schedule is complemented by multiple visits and interactions with the local
industry which will facilitate students in gaining valuable experience from firms with
international repute and outlook. The international immersion also provides students with
critical insights on business dimensions of international firms, cross border mergers, global
workforce management, challenges of multi-domestic operations, and the solutions
thereof. The rich and diverse experience gained from international module brings a new
perspective to students' thought process and helps the students in exploring innovative
means to collaborate and grow in multinational environment.

minute presentation followed by 15-20 minute Q&A session is most
effective for PPT.
We advise recruiters to negotiate on remuneration and other terms of
employment in strict confidence with candidate. However, recruiters
need to keep the placement committee informed at the following stages
so that placement committee can ensure effective compliance of policies:
When making preliminary offer
