Talking about the curriculum, as most industry experts say that now, Businesses are five years ahead of their time in terms of technology. This applies to the Academic Institutes as well. IIM Nagpur adopts that same tech-driven approach to deliver a seamless learning experience. The Faculty is trying their best to get the most out of us and making sure that there is minimal difference between the campus and virtual classes. All those group activities (especially for MPPO-HR lectures) that are supposed to be carried out in a physical classroom setup are done in virtual and imparted the same values to us which are required. The guest lectures from the industry’s prominent experts ensure that we are aware of the Corporate world and fill those demand-supply gaps for the corporates.
Looking back at those five months, I learned different management concepts and their application in the industry. Working in groups with diverse people and sharing a bond with them, the virtual world has not stopped it. But the major takeaway is different. Someone said that ‘MBA teaches you life, I would say it teaches you OPTIMIZATION. You have your limited 24 hours at your disposal and how you make the best possible use of it. From being sleep deprived all the time, now I am happily sleeping 4-5 hours a day and learning to optimize the remaining. There will be challenges coming in the future that may be bigger than covid, but these past months have taught me to prepare for any challenge in the world. It is an experience that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
