Enrich opens mgmt academy

Bangalore-based Enrich Education Trust has launched Enrich Management Academy (EMA), a business school that will offer a two-year post graduate programme in management. It is simultaneously launching operations in Bangalore, Pune and Mumbai.

The institute is mentored by NS Ramaswamy, founder director of Indian Institute of Management-Bangalore. EMA plans to start classes in August this year with an intake of 60 students in each location. Its campuses are taken on lease. In Bangalore, its campus is located at Koramangala. Students graduating from the institute will receive an autonomous PGPM certification as well as an MBA from Indira Gandhi National Open University in collaboration with Centum Learning.

Enrich is among the first few institutes from India to adopt Principles of Responsible Management Education, a UN initiative, and the first Indian institute to register for MBA Oath Project. The Oath project has roots in Harvard Business School. It is a voluntary pledge for MBA students to create value responsibly and ethically.

Admissions will begin in July this year. Scores from the Common Admission Test and Management Aptitude Test will be accepted. The fee is Rs 2 lakh a year.
