programme is gradually making it among the tops
With a heavy emphasis on bridging the gap between industry and academia, St. Kabir Institute of
Professional Studies has been approaching Management education in India, differently. The B
School, which carries the legacy of over three decades, has been raising the bar for PGDM by
involving industry experts in every phase of its course delivery. From designing the curriculum to
rigorous industry interfaces with PGDM students, St. Kabir Institute of Professional Studies’
AICTE approved two years full-time management program with dual specialization is drawing a
lot of attention in Gujarat- from academicians and industrialists alike.

setting for events of the Industry Interaction Forum, which aims to offer students the required
corporate exposure.
One of the objectives of the B Schools is to create industry ready professionals at the end of the
program. That’s why SKIPS’s courses in Marketing / Digital Marketing, Finance, Human
Resources, Operations, International Business and Information Technology are designed with
industry inputs. The faculty team, many of whom have vast industry experience, deliver the
courses using new age teaching pedagogy like case studies, group discussions, simulated

professionals.
