The collaboration will also open opportunities for live projects, summer internships and final placements through ADMI member companies. In addition, senior industry leaders will take part in a lecture series designed to bring practical insights into the classroom.
The MoU further includes plans for Management Development Programmes for professionals in the diagnostics manufacturing sector. The two institutions will also work together on research papers, white papers, business case studies and consulting projects, while jointly organising seminars, conferences and industry conclaves on healthcare management, technology and policy.
