Apart from the nation’s largest pool of full-time<br />

faculty, the institute also boasts of a large number of<br />

visiting faculty members, which include<br />

experienced and reputed members of the industry<br />

and academia. The academic community brings<br />

extensive research, training and industry experienc<br />

and offers a comprehensive outlook and better<br />

education. Hardly does a day go by, without a guest<br />

lecture taking place in <strong>MDI</strong>.<br />

Being taught by such a diverse set of faculty<br />

sensitizes the students to the inner workings of the<br />

industry and prepares them to face the increasingly<br />

dynamic and competitive work environment. It<br />

gives them an edge, allowing them to emerge as the<br />

change masters and thought leaders of tomorrow.<br />

Faculty<br />

<strong>MDI</strong> maintains high levels of academic excellence in management. It has around 80 full-time faculty who<br />

have several years of experience either as academicians or having worked at senior positions in the industry.<br />

The faculty is thus able to deliver a healthy mix of practical insights and academic rigour in the class room.<br />

<strong>MDI</strong> has strong links with leading International Business Schools, which aid in delivering a globalized<br />

management curriculum. As part of the global initiatives, student and faculty exchange goes on regularly, and<br />

joint research projects are also undertaken and encouraged.
