Kolkata, May 10

Wigan & Leigh College India today announced plans to offer full time and part time programmes in retail, banking, hospital administration, information technology and hospitality at its campus in Kolkata. The company has tied up with well-known companies in these domains with a view to drawing up linkages and also for providing "professional training" to its students. Addressing a news conference here, Ms Malobika Sengupta, CEO of Wigan & Leigh College India, said for the retail segment, tie-ups had been forged with Reliance and Essar while for banking linkages ICICI Bank, Kotak and HDFC Bank had been roped in. Talks were under way with the Apollo Hospitals Group for hospital management. Ms Sengupta announced that 15 per cent of the seats would be offered to under-privileged students free of charge.
