Testimony
When I started on my MBA in 1994, I was hoping that my degree would provide me with the credentials and business acumen to someday take on a role like this. I have to say that the MBA program at PIMR gave me a lot more than I expected. The greatest benefit of the program was much more than the “piece of paper” that I received at the end. It was the confidence it gave me to pursue, win, and accept these positions. Thanks to the faculty of the MBA program, I know that I have all of the tools to be a successful and ethical leader. I truly enjoyed my time in the Institute back then program and the investment I made there is changing my future for the better.

I would like to pen down my thoughts today, on Teacher’s day. I recall the great journey we had at PIMR which helped us shape our future. Our gurus who exposed us to the world of management, nurtured our thoughts and helped us being a better human. We owe our success to this incubation machine called PIMR. We wish our best to all who follow us in this academic journey.

It is extremely heartening to see PIMR as such a strong and large brand in management schools today. PIMR has been a great contributor towards my overall development as a professional. I fondly remember the place which provided extremely conducive atmosphere to develop independent thinking and right attitude in my formative years.I feel fortunate to have been part of an Institute like PIMR that enabled a science graduate like me to develop my interest in the field of finance.

I must place on records that a lot of credit goes to PIMR towards building my foundation for the professional world. I joined PIMR in the first batch as a full-time MBA student in the year 1994. The two years at PIMR taught me – (a) the nuances of managing a business by building a strong theoretical foundation and (b) initial challenges of setting up an academic institution. These learnings helped me in building myself for the real and professional life. I admire the vision of Shri. N.N. Jain in setting up of such an institution in Central India. I thank Professors and staff of PIMR, especially Dr. Yogeshwari Phatak for contributing in my learning process.
I wish PIMR all the best and assure of my support towards its growth.

- MBA FT Finance 1994-1996
We had the privilege of being the foundation stones of PIMR. Being the first batch of the institute, we fostered a start-up culture @ campus. In hindsight, I feel lucky that due to the culture prevailing in those days, I could inculcate a never-say-die attitude and an entrepreneurial thinking approach, which helped me in becoming a better professional. The multidimensional skills and industry exposure I got at PIMR were really helpful when facing real life challenges. Prestige has played a big role in my professional success, as I learnt a lot outside the classroom—from faculty, staff and industry experts and from my fellow students as well.
The most important attribute which PIMR helped me develop was an “Ability to see the Big Picture”, which has been really instrumental in my career.
My professors were extremely passionate about what they taught and they wanted to help us in our overall development. I owe my success to the faculty @ PIMR.
