That's an interesting question! It's kind of like asking why Microsoft doesn't compete with HAL in manufacturing. Each institution has its own strengths and focus.

IIMs like Ahmedabad, Bangalore, and Calcutta offer a broad general management education. While students can choose electives in their second year, the emphasis isn't solely on operations. They prepare students for various management roles, and students get to rank companies they're interested in before placements.

NITIE, Mumbai, on the other hand, specializes in industrial engineering and operations management. So, while IIMs have a wider scope, NITIE is the go-to place for operations expertise. They've both built strong, distinct brand values, and students often prefer IIMs for general management roles anyway.

Its a Question about your future!
