INDUSTRY-INSTITUTE LINKAGES
SVKM's NMIMS University views itself as a part of the community in its various locations, and reflects this by being an active participant and corporate citizen. Activities range from cooperative events targeted at youth with local councils and corporates. NMIMS has been able to identify future graduates early and build up a relationship with them. It is undoubtedly a great place to get education, but it also wants corporations to discover the University in a new light. NMIMS is a first class Business partner and Business opportunity. In today’s global economy, Institutions of higher learning play a dominant role in the growth and success of organizations. Management and Industry have several areas of interdependence and mutual interests. It is imperative that they work together and move towards long term and sustainable linkages especially in the wake of competition. Several companies partner with us for cutting edge research and solutions.

Academic Courses – for Working Executives
It has become imperative to constantly update one’s knowledge and skills in the wake of competition. Thus for working executives who desire to acquire Management Qualifications, the Part-time/Distance Learning Degree and Diploma courses are most suitable. So far a number of executives have benefited from these courses. Our Part-time courses that are organized in the evening hours / weekends are practical, contemporary and well recognized by the industry. For people in off-campus locations in India and elsewhere the Distance Learning Programmes and Programmes via VSAT are offered as a facility to learners.

NMIMS has always been innovative in conceptualizing, designing and conducting courses in new areas to meet the requirements of the industry. Every programme leads to a transformational experience that fosters professional, intellectual, and personal development and challenges executives to think and manage more effectively in a changing business world. Courses in the emerging field such as insurance, management of technology and research that have recently been offered are well accepted and many more are on the anvil.
