who we are
Few institutions can boast of bridging the gap between academics and the industry, like us. Hailing from the S.P. Mandali Trust - one of the oldest in India; Prin. L.N.Welingkar Institute of Management Development and Research (WeSchool) has come to be known as one of the torchbearers for progressive higher education today.
WeSchool has two campuses: Mumbai and Bengaluru.

"The illiterate of this century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn."
- Alvin Toffler
At WeSchool, we are deeply inspired by these words of the great American writer and futurist. Undoubtedly, being convinced of the need for a radical change in management education, we decided to tread the path that leads to corporate revolution.
Emerging unarticulated needs and realities need a new approach both in terms of thought as well as action.
Cross disciplinary learning, discovering, scrutinizing, prototyping, learning to create and destroy-the mind's eye needs to be nurtured and differently so.
WeSchool has chosen the 'design thinking' approach towards management education. All our efforts and manifestations as a result stem from the integration of design thinking into management education.
We dream to create an environment conducive to experiential learning.
"We want that education by which character is formed, strength of mind is increased, intellect is expanded and by which one can stand on one's own feet. Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man." – Swami Vivekananda.
our leadership
We choose to tread the path less travelled. Our aspiration is to create a fertile environment conducive to experiential learning.
Our destination is to nurture citizens who can lead self, organisations and society.
Under the visionary leadership of the Governing Trust, and with ‘design thinking’ at the heart of all our efforts, we strive towards disseminating knowledge, to create and nurture the leaders of tomorrow.
