The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Lubar College of Business has signed an agreement with the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IITK) to bring early MBA students to the Milwaukee campus to complete their degrees.
Through the agreement, IITK students can transfer up to four courses to UWM and complete the remaining seven MBA courses required in the UWM program. These students would be awarded degrees from each institution upon graduation.
“We’re delighted to enter into this agreement with the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, whose MBA program is ranked among the top 25 in India,” said Kaushal Chari, dean of UWM’s Lubar College of Business.
“These are excellent students who will add new perspectives to our program’s classroom discussions,” he said. “In turn, they will gain insights into American management from our MBA faculty and alongside the Lubar College’s traditional students.”
IITK is one of India’s most prestigious universities, with programs in the engineering, science, design, humanities, and management disciplines.
