Centre of Management Accounting to come up at IIM-C
Indian Institute of Management (Calcutta) has entered into a collaboration with the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, London, to set up a Centre for Management Accounting at the IIM-C campus in Kolkata.
The centre will work to create and disseminate knowledge to change management accountancy practices in India and other countries.
This will also foster the inter-disciplinary research in IIM-C and other academic institutions in India, an IIM-C spokesman said on Wednesday.
A MoU between the two institutions has recently been signed. According to this, CIMA will sponsor the centre and a CIMA professor of management accounting will take classes for an initial period of three years. The governance of the centre will be facilitated by the creation of a Centre Advisory Board.
IIM-C will undertake the research to act as an academic host to the centre.
