STUDENTS GRADUATE IN INDIA

New graduates from IILM.For the third year running the University held a graduation ceremony in New Delhi, India, for students who have been studying for a University of Bradford degree in business and management.

Our partners in New Delhi are the Institute of Integrated Learning in Management (IILM) who this year produced over 100 graduands for the ceremony.

The University also conferred at this ceremony an honorary doctorate on Mark Tully, for many years the BBC's India correspondent, who gave an inspirational address to the congregation.

IILM is among the top 100 private business schools in India and makes an important contribution to quality management development in Indian industry. Their collaboration with Bradford means that students take virtually identical courses in Delhi to those taught at Bradford and go through the same assessment process. Students have the option of transferring their credits from IILM to Bradford in the second and third year.

Arthur Francis amd Mark Tully.The Institute currently offers four management programmes - a Postgraduate Diploma in Management (PGDBM), Bachelors in Business and Management Studies (BBM), Bachelors in Business Computing and MA in Marketing.

Director at IILM, Dr Ahindra Chakrabarti, said: "The standing of Bradford University School of Management is such that any student can migrate from its course in Delhi to most European universities and a number of American universities midway through their course."
