MICA Research: Leading Innovation and Global Thought Leadership
Research is a significant part of the mission of management institutions, in addition to their education and training mandate. Research is also a very substantial component of global institutional rankings. Any educational institution that hopes to have any impact must focus on research. Rankings play a critical role in institutes of higher education as it helps them leverage their collaborations with industry and other academic institutes, besides attracting the best talent from across the world and boosting their brand image and identity. Quality research within any institution often acts as a benchmark or criterion, which aids future scholars in identifying the faculty and institution as their possible destination to pursue their career as a researcher.
