New Business School Launched

Filed under:

Joint venture of VMRF and Centennial College, Canada

CHENNAI: A business school, a joint venture of the Vinayaka Missions Research Foundation (VMRF) and the Centennial College, Canada, was launched here on Saturday.

Inaugurating the school, Canadian High Commissioner Lucie Edwards said that in the recent past there had been many mutually beneficial exchange programmes between institutions of both the countries. Many institutions in Canada were coming to India for collaboration, including engineering and science colleges, and vice-versa.

The collaboration between the VMRF and the Centennial College, she said, would benefit students of both the countries and go a long way in providing quality education to students here. The opportunity that these two colleges would give to students would make them professional in true sense.

Lucy Fromowitz, vice-president, Student Services, Centennial College, said the institution prepared students to work globally as it had tied up with GM Motors, Air Canada and other multi-national companies for hands-on training.

Vicki Bismilla, vice-president, Academic and Chief Learning Officer, Centennial College, said Canadian businesses were in need of skilled manpower conversant with the changes in a global economy.

Anna University Vice-Chancellor D. Viswanathan said there was a shortage of faculty, especially in management education. A majority of the postgraduate students in business administration studied through correspondence, and lacked quality. He hoped the school would improve the quality of business administration.

VMRF pro-Chancellor A.S. Ganesan said the school would offer flexible options to students, enabling them to start their course in Chennai and complete it in Canada. On completion of the course, they would be eligible for a two-year work permit in Canada and one year in Toronto
