Re: [Assam] Assam Institute of Management
Shantikam-da,I would suggest that in an era when even students of top MBA programs in US etc are lining up to do summer inetrnship at Bangalore Tech companies etc - it would be a useful experience for your atudents as well.Further, tying up (affiliation/academic linkages with some good foreign US/UK etc ) based MBA programs would keep the program up to date - though I am sure you are making all efforts to ensure that even now.Regards and Congratulations of the achievements of AIM.UmeshShantikam Hazarika [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Another year has passed and we shall have our 11th Convocation on 21st April.
