| | APRIL 20244Today, collaboration is an important aspect of education. Given the sheer pace of the industry realm, sharing knowledge in real-time can improve education and make it more relevant to the industry, reducing the industry-academia gap. By collaborating across different fields, institutions can enhance their creativity, innovation, and problem-solving skills and better serve their students and communities. Indian Institute Of Management­Bangalore (IIM­Bangalore) has always been at the forefront of this approach. IIM Bangalore recently inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with FPSB India, the professional standards-setting body for financial planning in India, to jointly offer an Executive Education Program in Financial Planning. This new program is designed for working professionals and students to cater to the growing demand for advanced financial planning education. In the aftermath of the collaboration, both institutions will jointly organize events, including workshops, seminars and conferences, to foster knowledge exchange and networking opportunities for professionals and students alike.In truth, IIM Bangalore's novel education approach has always borne fruit. In the latest PGP-BA and PGP 2024 placements, IIM Bangalore saw 516 students accepting job offers from 163 firms. The average annual salary stood at Rs 32.5 lakh, according to the data disclosed by IIM Bangalore. The date also reveals that a record 29 students have been placed abroad with Infosys Consulting (7), Strategy& Middle East (6), Jindal Shadeed (5), TransformationX (3), EY Parthenon Singapore (2), JP Morgan Chase London (2), Health City Cayman Islands (2), Fast Retailing, Japan (1) and Landmark Group, Middle East (1).
