IPMX has an exciting academic schedule spread over four terms. The programme provides a firm grounding in concepts of general management and offers opportunities to students to specialise in their areas of interest.

Initial part of the IPMX calendar focuses on building the foundation by making the participants comfortable with the fundamentals of economics, operations management, management accounting, decision making techniques, marketing, strategic management and international business communication. This is achieved through classroom discussions, case studies and role playing exercises. Later part of the programme allows the students to choose subjects based on their long-term career plan and develop a deeper understanding. At this stage the teaching pedagogy focuses more on applying academic framework to real life problems and extensive industry interactions.

Throughout the programme, students work on joint projects and assignments with their assigned peers. During the academic year, students go through as many as 50 team projects and assignments. A continuous flow of information on the latest industry best practices is maintained by workshops and speeches delivered by senior management from the corporate world and industry experts. These workshops go a long way in helping the students stay connected with the industry and gain valuable insights.

Global competition has forced businesses to revolutionise their management strategies in order to function across multiple geographies. The increasing rates of change, technological advances, shorter product life cycles, and high-speed communications have all contributed to this paradigm shift. In such a dynamic environment, there is an augmented need of managers who can work seamlessly to bridge geographical, social and cultural gaps to realise every prospect. International immersion helps tomorrow's leaders make and manage a winning global team by effectively leveraging sound understanding of international team dynamics to overcome these geographical, social and cultural distances. In the past IPMX students have undertaken their international modules with reputed institutions like ESCP Paris, McGill University, Canada and Kelley school of Business, Indianapolis.

The IPMX class of 2013 would undergo the international immersion in collaboration with Kelley School of Business, Indianapolis, USA. Founded in 1920 as the Indiana University School of Commerce and Finance, the Kelley School of Business has grown into one of the most prestigious business schools in the world. The programmes at Kelley School of Business are consistently ranked among the best in the world and resident faculty members are internationally recognised for knowledge, vast experience and thought leadership.
