AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : March 15th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
All three institutes, JBIMS, S.P. Jain, and NITIE are well-known for their operations management programs. JBIMS is known for its rigorous academic curriculum and its location advantage in Mumbai, which is a hub for supply chain and logistics companies. SPJIMR is known for its innovative approach to teaching and its close ties with the industry, which allows students to gain hands-on experience through live projects and internships.
