We express our gratitude to the corporate sector for the continued faith and confidence entrusted upon us. IIFT is committed to not only meeting but exceeding the expectations of the stakeholders.
IIFT's curriculum is a blend of inputs derived from the vast reservoir of knowledge and the technical expertise that exists within the Institute and the learnings that it generates through the collaborative endeavours with the trade and industry. The Institute's highly competent faculty, comprising of both in-house and visiting experts, work relentlessly to produce industry-ready professionals.
The activities of students are confined not only to the rigor of academics but are augmented by actively engaging industry leaders for guest lectures, organizing events at the Campus, working on live projects, attempting case studies and participating in intercollege and corporate competitions. The long list of such activities undertaken, and the laurels won by the students bears a testimony to the fact that they excel in a highly competitive environment. It always has and shall continue to give us immense pleasure to welcome you aboard for our campus engagement process.
