IIM Raipur partners with IIM Bangalore
The FPM students of IIM Raipur will be attending advanced courses in research at IIM Bangalore, a senior research institute which has been known for its academic rigor, highest quality research and excellence over decades. The endeavor has provided a unique opportunity to the young and budding scholars at IIM Raipur to engage in contemporary research in merging areas and to benefit from the rich resources and collaborative environment at IIM Bangalore. Another unique feature of this initiative is the kind of leverage it has given to the research scholars from the institute in terms of learning which comes from sharing each other’s ideas apart from the theories learnt in within the walls of classrooms.
