IMIS Bhubaneswar to have PG course in retail management
December 20th, 2007
Following is an excerpt from a report in Business Standard. (Thanks to Deba Nayak for the pointer.)
The Retailers Association of India (RAI) has selected NSHM Knowledge Campus Kolkata and Durgapur and IMIS in Bhubaneswar in eastern region to offer the 18-month post graduate programme in retail management (PGPRM).
NSHM’s campuses in Kolkata and Durgapur, and IMIS, Bhubaneswar are three of the 15 B-schools chosen by RAI for the PGPRM programme.
RAI has also introduced the Common Admission Retail Test (CART) to screen candidates interested to pursue the PGPRM course.
According to Gibson G Vedamani, CEO of RAI, “The objective of the PGPRM programme is to provide students with a high level of knowledge and understanding of the concepts and processes involved in retailing. The course will also equip them with the operational and analytical skills necessary for a [professional career in the retail sector. CART will ensure that we get the best of talents.”
The CART exam will be conducted at over 25 centres in India on January 27.
IIM-Indore has joined hands with RAI to develop the course content and teaching methodology. The 18-month PGPRM course costs close to Rs 4 lakhs.
