At the Indian Institute of Management Shillong, internationalization is at the forefront of our strategic vision, reflecting our commitment to fostering a globally interconnected academic environment. As we strive to establish ourselves as a premier institution in the global education landscape, we recognize that internationalization is not just an initiative but a crucial element in shaping well-rounded, globally aware leaders.
Our External Relations Cell plays a pivotal role in driving our internationalization initiatives. By forging and nurturing global partnerships, the ER Cell ensures that our students, faculty, and scholars have access to international opportunities that enrich their educational and professional journeys. From student exchange programs, student abroad programs, and faculty exchange programs to collaborative research and faculty exchanges, these partnerships offer invaluable experiences that broaden perspectives and cultivate a global mindset.
Internationalization is essential for several reasons. It equips our students and faculty with the skills and knowledge to navigate and thrive in an increasingly interconnected world. Exposure to diverse cultures, academic practices, and global perspectives fosters innovation, creativity, and critical thinking, which are indispensable in today’s dynamic global economy. Moreover, international partnerships enhance the institute’s reputation on the world stage, attracting top talent and contributing to the global exchange of ideas and best practices.
