International Study Tour
Consistent with the practice of world's top B-Schools the Aurora's Business School has been organizing International Study Tour (IST) annually for its PGDM students to give them a feel of global business. The IST's primary objective is to expose students to an international environment and to boost their creativity through exposure to diverse cultures, industries and best management practices in their respective fields of specializations. The tour equips them to understand the fast changing and increasingly competitive business environment of today. The ISTs are thoughtfully designed to serve academic, professional and aesthetic purposes in a balanced way. They are executed through reputed travel agents. This International tour gave students an excellent spin off in terms of first ever global exposure, enhanced business vision and a dash of strategic thinking.
The first IST was organised in the 1st week of April, 2017 covering visits to two of the leading economies of South-East Asia namely Malaysia and Singapore.
The second IST was organized to Dubai and Abu Dhabi in February, 2018 covering visits to several industries and a university in the leading gulf economies.
The Third IST is scaled for January/February, 2019. Details will be worked out soon. The most likely destination is Europe or China.
