At SCMS Cochin, we understand the importance of aligning management education with the evolving needs of the corporate world. Our Industry–Institute Interaction (III) series is a vital part of our PGDM program, designed to bring industry insight into the classroom and encourage collaboration beyond it.

The Industry-Institute Interaction Series (III) is a dynamic initiative designed to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry expectations. With a core focus on enhancing the practical relevance of education, the series facilitates curriculum enrichment through exposure to real-time industry trends. It serves as a vibrant platform for fostering collaboration between academia and industry professionals, encouraging students to engage in meaningful learning experiences that extend beyond the classroom.

Through this initiative, we aim to promote joint research ventures, facilitate technology transfer, and nurture innovation partnerships. By supporting internships, placements, and hands-on training, the series empowers students with industry-ready skills. Furthermore, it encourages knowledge exchange and fosters a spirit of entrepreneurship and innovation among young minds, laying a strong foundation for their future careers and contributions to the industry.
