The IMI Legacy

Established in 1981 with a campus in New Delhi, the International Management Institute (IMI) was India’s first corporate
sponsored business school. During its  inception, IMI was backed by prestigious corporate houses like RPG Enterprises,
Nestle, ITC, SAIL, Tata Chemicals, BOC and Williamson Magor. IMI Delhi, which is located in the Qutab Institutional
Area, has been among the leading B-schools for almost three decades and is today a global institution. It was
established in 1981 in collaboration with IMI Geneva (now IMD, Lausanne). Later in 2010, two more campuses came up in
Kolkata and Bhubaneswar to enable bright young minds from eastern India to gain access to the world-class IMI management
pedagogy.

Overview

The FDP aims to provide an overview of the importance of multivariate analysis in research, for publication in top-tier
journals. The sessions aim to demonstrate the application of various research methods with ample case exercises for
mastering the key concepts for usage in journal articles. The programme demonstrates the key concepts of linear
regression and logistic regression and their usage in research studies. The workshop will focus on factor analysis,
confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), structured equation modeling (SEM), process macro with mediation and moderation for
enabling you to use rich set methods for increasing acceptance of paper in peer-reviewed journals. Finally, the
programme intends to equip the participants with the key knowledge for application of cluster analysis and conjoint
analysis in research publications.
