Professor Lowalekar is an Associate Professor at IIM Indore and teaches the subject Operations Management & Quantitative Techniques Area at the institute.
Dr. Lowalekar, a Mechanical Engineer, was a participant of the FPM program at IIM Ahmedabad, and later went on to become a Fulbright-Nehru Postdoctoral Fellow at the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University.
Professor Lowalekar began teaching at IIM Indore as a visiting professor in 2010, and has been associated with the institute for a decade. At IIM Indore, he has received the 'Best Teacher Award' in 2019, 2016, and 2012, so it doesn't come as a surprise that he has been voted by 1st and 2nd year MBA students at IIM Indore as the InsideIIM Professor of The Year in 2020! In fact, in 2019, Professor Lowalekar missed out on this accolade by a whisker to Professor Manoj Motiani. Professor Motiani has been the first runner-up this year, which clearly shows how much students at IIM Indore value these professors' vast base of knowledge, domain expertise, and method of teaching.
