Testimonial

“Work taught me how to solve problems. IIM Kashipur taught me to step back and ask whether I was solving the right one.”

After several years of working in product and technology, I decided to go back to the classroom with a simple goal: to broaden my perspective and understand business beyond the role I was working in.

The EMBA (Analytics) at IIM Kashipur gave me the opportunity to do exactly that. What I enjoyed most was being able to connect what we learnt in the classroom with situations I was actually facing at work. Concepts around analytics, strategy, finance and decision-making felt much more meaningful when I could immediately see their relevance in the real world.

The people were an equally important part of the experience. Coming from different industries and professional backgrounds, my batchmates brought perspectives that challenged the way I thought about problems. Some of my most memorable learning happened during conversations and discussions outside the classroom.

Balancing a full-time career with an MBA was not always easy, but that was also what made the experience so rewarding. It pushed me to manage my time better, stay curious and make space for learning even when work was demanding.

Looking back, the programme has given me more than an additional qualification. It has helped me become a more well-rounded professional and given me greater confidence to navigate problems at the intersection of business, technology, analytics and product.

I’m grateful for the people, the experiences and, most importantly, the perspective that I’m taking with me into the next chapter of my career.
