| Today’s national focus on offshore outsourcing has turned to MBA programs that offer courses on the subject, and the IU Kelley School of Business’ KIP (Kelley International Perspectives) trip to India this past school year caught the eye of the media.
CNN’s Lou Dobbs Tonight sent a producer to Bloomington
in early March to interview Sreenivas Kamma, associate professor
of finance, and the 20-member team that was departing for
ten days in Delhi, Bangalore and Mumbai.
The results of the filming: a well-balanced news segment on Dobbs’ "Importing
America" segment. While in Bangalore, Kelley students were
shadowed by reporters and photographers from the New York
Times and the Associated Press. As a result, the March
28 Sunday Times’ business section ran a story on outsourcing
as a prime subject for business students, with Kelley students
capturing the lead and photograph over other featured programs
at Tuck, Bentley, Sloan and Wharton. Other outcroppings about
Kelley’s India travelers have appeared in India, Canada and
on Yahoo’s home news page.
