This year, FORE has decided to do away with

managerial qualities and latent business leadership talent.
This season for the batch that will pass out in

were Asian Paints, Hector Beverages, Genpact, KPMG, Cap Gemini, Hero MotoCorp,
L&T Finance among others.
“The trend is encouraging, 102 companies participated

too. Some of the PPI evaluations are still on and 50 % or more of the outgoing
2016 batch were placed by October end”, said Prof. Rajneesh Chauhan,
Chair-Placements at FORE.
“The continuous
research and efforts to keep the curriculum relevant to workplace, essentially
makes FORE a preferred destination for more than 130 companies across
verticals. With 85% of the faculty having vast corporate exposure creating
values for recruiters is a collective agenda for the members of faculty at
FORE. Even the selection committee at FORE, would comprise of one panelist from
the corporate sector,” earlier reported, Prof. Neeraj Kumar, Executive

An International
Immersion program familiarizes students with global policies, practices,
cultures. The admission policy framework of FORE also encourages diversity. The
present batch is highly diverse in terms of gender (34% female students),
academic background, and work experience. Unlike some IIMs, FORE does not

concession” amounting to 10% waiver in the tuition fee is also extended (over
and above any other scholarship being given) to the students who join the
programme and are domiciled in the state of Jammu & Kashmir and the 8
North-Eastern States (Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram,
