IIT-B and US B-school to offer executive management program

IIT-B (Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay) has collaborated with Washington University in St Louis's Olin Business School to offer an Executive MBA (Master of Business Administration).
The program will be offered to senior rank executives for a period of 18 months. Classes for the program will be conducted 4 times in a month. The formal approval for the combined program is awaited.
Though the association with Olin Business School is yet to be passed by the senate of IIT-B, the academic decision making body of IIT-B and the board has made its in-principle approval. However, it is doubtful that the program will commence before 2014.
As per a source from IIT-B, it is important to connect with senior management executives and provide them high class education in management.
Olin is one of the leading schools in providing executive education. IIT-B is among the 28 universities besides Washington University that is a part of a global consortium operating on sustainability and energy issues.
Since 2002, Olin has been in similar collaboration with the Fudan University in Shanghai
