MBA and Infrastructure at FORE School of Management

By Sangeeth Sabastian

A blend of academic excellence and business acumen is what FORE School of Management promises aspirants who cross its swanky portals. The institute owes its reputation, to a large extent, to its superior infrastructure.

Talking about the kind of work students take up, Jitendra K Dass, Director of the institute, says students are given opportunities to make projects for leading corporate houses, under the supervision of faculty members. Many members of the faculty are regulars at international seminars and conferences around the world - from the U.S to Malaysia.

“Our mission is to provide contextual learning and help in the holistic development of students and equip them to face challenges as corporate leaders”, Mr. Das says. With a student community of 750, the Institute offers 2-year full-time programs in Management and International business and a 3-year part-time MBA. These programs of repute attracted many successful companies like ICICI, SBI, Ernst & young, LG Electronics, Thomas Cook and Whirlpool during the last recruitment.

“The average annual pay package this year was Rs.6 lakhs and the highest touched Rs.8.5 lakhs,” the Director says. We are now in the final stages of discussion with two International Universities for a broad academic agreement encompassing students and faculty members,” he adds.

Following the global economy’s turn around after the global economic melt down, India has recovered with an optimistic projected annual GDP growth rate. Not surprisingly, India is seen as a favorable destination for investments, which means more opportunities for management students.
