Pathak in the 1960s in response to a competition organized by Prof. Ravi J. Matthai, which translates to "it is the application of knowledge that leads to one's overall development."[25]

Placements

[edit]

The placement process at IIM Ahmedabad is a student-driven process that institutionalizes placements for the entire batch. The Placement Committee elected by the student liaisons between the Institute administration, students, and recruiters.

Placements for the PGP and PGP-FABM courses are characterized by two phases – summer placements for the first-year batch and final placements for the graduating batch. The summers process is conducted in Nov/Dec for the first year. The second-year placement committee handles the process for them. The placement process for graduating is conducted in two stages. The first is the laterals process in January where firms interview students with prior work experience and offer them mid-level managerial positions. The second stage is the final placement process in around February. This process is handled by the newly elected committee among the PGP1s to avoid any conflict of interest and ensure a fair process. Companies from multiple sectors across different geographies hire candidates for a wide range of functions[56]

Placements for the One Year MBA (PGPX) course happen in two phases for the graduating batch. Given the senior roles that MBA-PGPX (One Year MBA) students take up after graduation, the placement process is conducted as a wave process in November and followed on a rolling basis from December onwards.
