What Our Students Says
Ever since I got to know about the Business aspect of Shipping Industry, I knew I had to enter this field. I waited for almost 1 year and finally the day came when I resigned from my previous job and the very next day I found myself sitting in the IMBA’s admission office. Four months of theory and there I was sitting for interviews with International and domestic shipping companies. All credit goes to the placement cell of IMBA headed by Ms. Neha Kannojiya, who made sure to give us all the opportunities available. Today, I am proudly representing IMBA internationally as an Operations Executive with Sharaf Shipping Agency, Dubai.
