IIT Kanpur is one of the very first institutions in the country to sense the currents and set sail. The MBA program offers analytics as specialisation and the graduates of this program learn to employ tools to support different functional areas of organisations belonging to various industry domains. Business Analytics are used in industries like financial services, retail, healthcare, manufacturing, energy, oil & gas, telecom, sports, etc. Having more information on hand is a panacea in the uncertain business world, and training students through real-life case studies instil a more logical thought process.
Analytics Case study competition and symposium(ACCS) is the flagship event of the annual Management fest of IIT Kanpur. It aims to familiarise B-school students in India with data analytics problem statements and challenges. Having a healthy competition is one of the best ways for peer-learning, and it is a widely acclaimed event of its kind in India.
