Speaking about the program's approach, Dr. Lakshmi Mohan, Pro Vice Chancellor, ITM Skills University & Director, ITM Business School said, “For a student to be industry-ready, academic knowledge is no longer enough. Through extended internships, professional certifications and continuous industry exposure, our BBA students develop smart, workplace skillsets that really make them stand out from other graduates. They have already spent 6 months working and earning. It reflects in the way they think about a workplace or a job role, their approach towards accountable tasks or even managing their expenses through their earnings. They are set to enter a workplace with a different mindset and confidence.”
