    In an official communique issued by the institute, Rajiv Kumar, chairperson, career development & placement office, says, “The PGPEX batch consists of professionals who are not risk-averse and have demonstrated commitment to their continuous personal development by joining a demanding educational programme even after having a successful track record.”

    “The senior roles that the students of the graduating batch have bagged convey the confidence the industry has posed in the ability of PGPEX students of IIM Calcutta, to contribute toward organisational growth,” he adds.
