Alumni Speaks

IIT Kanpur MBA program was more of a lifeline than an academic qualification for most of my batch mates as we were the pioneer batch. The time we spent at IITK had an astonishing influence on my personality. IIT Kanpur MBA program is very unique and the way we have performed in the industry proves its uniqueness. The faculty were outstanding and they were more like mentors than teachers. Today, being a Manager with one of the Big 4 consulting companies, I can vouch that the credit of my growth goes to the faculty and the learning I had during my MBA

The time, which I spent in the environment of IITK, MBA classes, Hostel, Library and of course in extra curricular activities, is influencing my carrier and life in a big way. The same is true for everyone. The learnings, competency and confidence which is gathered over a period of two years by each MBA student with the help of able faculty and talented classmates is incomparable and is very unique to IIT Kanpur. I recall those moments with passion and wish more and more heights to all of you and IIT Kanpur. Tons of thanks to our alma mater!

As for me, I would put my time at IITK as the best phase of my life. It was the first, and till date the only, duration for which I was off home, but I never realized it was the case! Be it for my friends, my classmates, the faculty, the knowledge, the environment, the culture or something else, it was truly magnificent. My life changed during my stay at the campus, and I can feel the difference now that I am off it. Such is the power of association with IITK that I have already made 3 trips to the campus in the last 6 months since I completed my course. It's very difficult to stay out of touch from the place and people that changed you!

The IITK MBA program is for those who have a desire to augment their technical knowledge with the underpinnings of a formal business education. Looking back at those two wonderful years, IITK taught me the value of team work, out of the box thinking and allowed me to meet some extraordinary people. Choosing IITK is the best thing I have done for myself from a professional standpoint and I must say that it has opened many a door to new opportunities and has been a key element in my career
