Project-Based Learning Philosophy
Mangalayatan University Jabalpur places a strong emphasis on project-based learning as a means of bridging theory and practice. Students are required to complete both mini-projects and a final capstone project that demonstrates their mastery of management concepts.
Mini-Projects
Mini-projects are completed during the first two semesters and involve small-scale investigations into real-world business problems. Each project is assigned a faculty mentor who guides students through the research process, data collection, analysis, and presentation.
Final-Year Thesis/Capstone Project
The capstone project is a significant undertaking that spans the entire fourth semester. Students select a topic related to their specialization and work closely with a faculty advisor to conduct in-depth research or develop a business solution. The project culminates in a formal presentation and written report submitted to a panel of experts.
Project Selection Process
Students can choose from a list of suggested projects or propose their own. Proposals must be approved by faculty mentors and align with current industry trends and academic rigor. The selection process ensures that each student engages in meaningful, impactful work that contributes to their professional development.
