---sorry, duplicate post---

Hello:

Thank your for your appreciation for our faculty line up and campus. Let me address each of your queries/questions one by one :

1. MYRA School of Business has applied for the AICTE approval in December 2011. As you might know there is a calendar of events for Institutes/colleges applying for PGDM 2012 to AICTE. And as per the same, we expect the approval to happen in March 2012. We are confident of AICTE approval as we are offering much MORE that the prescribed. Let me highlight; As per AICTE an MBA/PGDIM has to have 2 acres of land and we have 10 acres; they prescribe 600 sq ft per class rooms and we have 1000 sq. ft; in every respect we have not only complied with AICTE requirements but gone much beyond. For foreign tie-ups there are prescribed norms, which we are following, so that will not be an issue at all.
2. 3.These partnerships with companies are not just for mentorships; it is for specific internships and placements. We also have extensive mentorship programme from the adjunct faculty from the industry, which is separate. Let me repeat, our partnership are specifically for internships and placements. In fact we will be having (intense pre summer internships) 2-week training programmes from specialized trainers to prepare our students for internships. For example, a 2-week programme on " Sales Training " for those going for " sales" division in companies ( as per our interactions with Kotak) , and the like.

We focus on Internships because we believe that they offer a very good opportunity to student to learn and also find appropriate placements.
3. 5.Placements for fresh graduates and people with work experience will definitely be different. Currently we are looking at a 80: 20 mix of students (80 % work ex 20% and fresh graduates) to add to diversity and also a happy blend of fresh perspectives and youthful exuberance as well as mature and tempered with experience minds. Our placement strategy for these will be different and appropriate to their nature and level of experience.
4. We are currently working with different industries/foundations for different scholarships. We assure you that there will be couple of scholarships by the end of students enrollment season.
5. The essay is an integral part of our application process. We have already indicated what we are looking for in the essay. We would like to understand the person behind the application. Let me reiterate once again here: The essay should focus on one's career goals and highlight the following aspects:
1.Evidence of leadership
2.Professional promise
3.Motivation and drive
4.Mistakes in your life
5.Overcoming adversity (including disabilities)
6.Personal qualities.

The essay has to be submitted along with the application.
I would also encourage you to attend the Information Session in any one of cities convenient to you.

We would be happy to address all of your queries and clear your doubts.
Please feel free to write to us.

Hi,

This is our first batch. MYRA is a new institute but its founders and the leaders and visionaries behind MYRA School of Business have solid experience in higher education. MYRA has ben established with a vision to bridge the quality gap in the B School scenario in India. It is with this vision we have brought in dean and faculty from the top b schools from W.P.Carey School of Business and others.

With the credibility and connections of the founders and academic leadership, with the likes of say Dr. Sunil Sharma, Director-International Monetary Fund (IMF) Regional Training Institute Singapore : Andrew Atzert, Chief Operating Officer, Wharton School and others on board and our dean Prof. Rajiv Sinha and many more, MYRA has very strong industry linkages. We are already in the process of formalizing our partnerships with many of the industries such as HDFC , Kotak, Tata Motors and others for internships and placements.

Please also note we are partnering with W.P.Carey School of Business, Arizona State University which is one of the top ranked B Schools in the world ( 21st), your degree from MYRA will be a valuable one. We already have student exchange programs with two schoolsASU and Catolica Lisbon, Portugal. All of these on your resume will work wonders.
