Welcome to IIM Ahmedabad!
PGP students are provided with a number of opportunities at the Institute for developing a holistic vision. One such opportunity is through the Institute's Student Exchange Programme. A strong and self-sustaining exchange programme has been designed to help the institute serve its purpose better and enhance academic standards. Student Exchange Programmes have been established with leading schools in Europe, North America, and the Asia-Pacific region.
Each year the Institute selects around a quarter of the second year students to spend one academic term at premier management institutes around the world with which the Institute has forged partnerships. Similarly, students from the corresponding institutions spend an academic term at IIMA. IIMA has been able to increase the number of participating institutions from 4 to 39 since 1999. The number of outgoing students benefiting from the programme has risen from 6 to 110 and incoming students from 16 to 44. The enthusiasm shown by institutions across the world has been tremendous and speaks volumes for the quality of programmes offered at the Institute.
The exchange programme has academic partners across continents and corporate partners across the globe that have made it possible for students to participate in these programmes without any financial impediments. Apart from the scholarships instituted by IIMA, several students have received scholarships from some participating schools, the French embassy, DAAD from Germany and some corporate partners.
We at the Exchange Council, IIM Ahmedabad help the incoming students from other institutes settle in here. Also, we put the necessary systems in place for the allocation process in case of outgoing students students.
