Operations Club -

“TELL ME AND I FORGET, TEACH ME AND I MAY REMEMBER, INVOLVE ME AND I LEARN.”

Benjamin Franklin

We are the Operations Club of IIM Calcutta. We pride ourselves at being the club that bridges the gap between classroom teaching and practical application in the field of operations.

Conceptualized in 2011 by the 47th PGP batch of IIM Calcutta and with over-whelming support from the faculty of Operations Management, we took just two years to transform from a ‘Special Interest Group’ to a full-fledged Club. Our rapid success can be attributed to the various facets of the club.

We have been successful in bringing the most number of live projects which include projects from Indian Railways, L&T and Amazon, Advatech and many others.

We are the only club across B-Schools in India engaging 60+ MBA institutes through our monthly online event ‘Ops Cociente’. Other than this we have conducted large number of campus events like Nirmaan, Flip-it-Fast, ManuFactor, Battlefield based on the various concepts of supply chain, constraint management, inventory management etc. Through these engagements, we try to increase the student enthusiasm towards operations and continue to evolve and innovate at the same time.

We are one of the few clubs, which has its own magazine, where students, faculty and industry stalwarts put their opinions on various developments in the field of Operations. Also with a Preparation team of its own, Operations Club adds further value to the chain, by helping students with the preparation for a career in Operations Management.

Last but not the least, our Industry Interaction team, brings the industry stalwarts from the field of Operations to share their knowledge and experience. Personalities such as Mr. Naresh Kumar (author of “10,000 Km on Indian Highway”) and many others have graced our events on numerous occasions.


Quiz Club -

A part of the cultural wing, the IIMC "Kweej" club is essentially defined by the precocious achievements of some of the country's legendary quizzers. And quizzing is as entrenched a tradition here as parties. It goes back to the days of 'seeding quizzes' during the early batches, some of which used to be conducted by the likes of Neil O'Brien - the original patriarch of this mental gymnastics. To keep count of achievements is no mean task, IIM Calcutta teams have been winners of popular quiz shows like Quiz Time, finalists of Mastermind India and several other high octane quizzes in open events across the country. Their latest triumph has been at "Nihilanth '11", the inter IIM-IIT Quiz, where they floored the competition. Internally the IIM Calcutta quizzing calendar is made up of a number of quizzes many of which are currently championed by our students. BBC Mastermind, watch this space!
