Project-Based Learning Philosophy
Our department believes in project-based learning as a cornerstone of education. Through structured mini-projects and a capstone thesis, students gain hands-on experience in solving complex business problems. These projects are aligned with industry needs and offer exposure to real-world challenges.
The mini-projects are introduced in the second year, allowing students to apply their knowledge in practical scenarios. They are guided by faculty members who provide mentorship throughout the process. Students must present their findings to peers and faculty, promoting critical thinking and communication skills.
The final-year thesis or capstone project is a comprehensive endeavor that requires students to integrate all aspects of their learning. It involves extensive research, data analysis, and strategic planning. Each student selects a topic in consultation with a faculty mentor, ensuring relevance and feasibility.
Evaluation criteria for projects include originality, depth of analysis, presentation quality, and impact on business outcomes. This approach not only enhances academic understanding but also builds professional competencies essential for future careers.
