β€œIIM Nagpur has yet again distinguished itself by successfully securing 100 per cent placements for the Batch of 2019-21 – despite the uncertainty resulting from the pandemic. Not only does this testify to the excellence in management education that our students receive at IIM Nagpur, but also to the agility with which the Institute has responded to the crisis – moving classes online, leveraging the virtual environment to connect with more industry experts, and ensuring that our curriculum evolves with the needs of the industry. We are grateful to our valued recruiters for their continued engagement with us. As we gear up to move into our permanent campus at MIHAN in the heart of the industries, we are positive that it will strengthen our academic rigour, research, industry connectedness, and training capabilities further,” said Prof. Bhimaraya Metri, Director, IIM Nagpur.
