Being a second-year MBA student in LMTSM I must say the college has outdone my expectations. LMTSM has the best infrastructure and the most skilled international faculty.

Dear Manvi
MBAs are great for a career change and thriving business opportunities. Though both the colleges are good in academics but being an alumni let me share the details of LPU. Mittal School of Business exhibits a rich diversity as the academic staff and students come from across the globe. We believe that excellence flourishes in an environment that embraces the broadest range of people, helps them to achieve their full potential, nurture free expression of diverse perspective through respectful discourses and high standards are maintained for students and staff. Thank You!
