In the 3years of my life that I spent in IMT as an FPM scholar in marketing, I have found that IMT Ghaziabad is extremely focused on research. It is rigorous with a wide variety of research courses taught by highly established faculty, which gives an overview as well as a deep understanding of the various domains that the area covers and also helps in finding research problems that can be taken up for thesis. Along with that, the institute has given me good support in terms of library, hostel and internet facilities. Altogether, this programme will serve as a launchpad in my academic career.

I am freshman, recently exposed to the Fellow Program in Management in the Institute of Management Technology. My domain of interest is Operations Management. In my very short tenure, my experience was astounding. The structure in IMT is highly organized in research, academic and all the other forms. The rigour on research is quite high and there is an abundance of resources. The course structure for this course is quite comprehensive and it is delivered by a group of highly experienced faculties, who not help us in academia but also help us in figuring out other aspects of life. A blend of discipline based courses along with general management courses provides with an overview of this entire subject as well as strongholds our area of interest. The main attraction is the literature-rich library with all sorts of journals, books and magazines. Direct access to statistical databases has also been provided for additional benefits. The hostel and mess facilities are at par. To sum it up, I have embarked into an interesting journey so far.
