One such academic event which is conducted every year is Tirpude’s Industry Readiness Exercise (TiRE). This event is specially conducted for the MBA/BBA/BCCA final year students. This workshop is designed to make the students job-ready for industry and aims to prepare the students for all the challenges that they shall face in their work lives.
