InsideIIM had launched the Professor Of The Year Competition this year, where we recognize the efforts that various B-School professors throughout the country have put in to ensure that their students are not left behind and continue to meet their potential and achieve great things. We asked MBA students of the current batches in 2021 to nominate their favorite professors on campus for the title of 'Professor of The Year' as a small token of gratitude for professors.
To our delight, we have received an overwhelming response from the student community for the competition and we have been releasing the results for each B-School campus regularly.
