This year IIM U students also received an opportunity to interact with students from College of Alice and Peter Tan, National University of Singapore (NUS), who visited Udaipur on 14th and 15th December as a part of their study tour to enhance their knowledge about citizenship and community engagement. Students of IIM U accompanied NUS students for a two day sight-seeing trip in Udaipur.
During the two-day interaction, the students pondered over and discussed subjects ranging from the education system of India, effects of tourism on Udaipur, the cultural diversity and differences between the two nations, and the political will in the neighbouring countries, India and China.
They exchanged ideas on the expected results of upcoming Lok-Sabha elections, major cities of India and their cultures, Indian marriages and family values, the dire importance of democracy in the biggest democracy of the world, opportunity cost of leaving a job and doing MBA in India etc.
Due to the varied cultures, practices and diverse backgrounds of students, both NUS and IIM U students found the discussions to be very engaging and interesting.
Different points of views were shared and various possibilities were explored in the sessions. Students from NUS communicated that this activity proved to be an important milestone in their global immersion program and helped them gain a different perspective on various subjects via the tete-a-tete experiences with the IIM U students.
This was indeed a great learning experience for IIM U students as the fruitful discussions helped gain an insight on a totally different education system of Singapore and its effect on growth of an individual.
The groups departed on a promissory wish to remain connected and build future partnerships.
