Lucknow: The Indian Institute of Management-Lucknow (IIM-L) Thursday said it has signed an agreement with Kelley School of Business (KSB) at Indiana University, US, to promote research in global business education.

"Kelly School of Business and IIM-L will investigate avenues to enhance the research mission. Collaborative case studies would be developed, which would then be used for teaching purposes, designing and delivering series of faculty research workshops," IIM-L said in a statement here.

"KSB and IIM-L will also explore the best avenues to combine the interests of faculty at both institutes with students, the business community and society in general. The collaboration seeks to produce events such as webinars, videoconferences and conferences," it added.

According to officials, the memorandum of understanding (MoU) will also explore the possibilities of launching a dual-degree programme that will be designed by both institutes and will be primarily taught at IIM-L's Noida campus by faculty from both the institutes.

IIM-L director Devi Singh said: "Research cannot be confined to geographies. In order to innovate new measures of teaching and learning, we today join hands with one of US's leading B-schools."
