Project-Based Learning Philosophy
At Monad University Hapur, project-based learning is central to our pedagogical approach. We believe that students learn best when they apply theoretical knowledge to real-world problems and collaborate with peers to solve complex challenges.
Mini-projects are assigned throughout the first year of the program. These projects typically involve analyzing case studies, conducting market research, or developing strategic recommendations for actual companies. Students work in teams under faculty supervision, presenting their findings at end-of-term symposiums and receiving peer feedback.
The final-year capstone project is a significant undertaking that allows students to explore an area of personal interest within the broader scope of management. Projects are selected based on student preferences and aligned with faculty expertise or industry needs. Each student is paired with a mentor who guides them through the research process, data collection, analysis, and presentation.
Evaluation criteria for projects include originality of approach, depth of research, clarity of communication, teamwork effectiveness, and contribution to academic discourse or industry practice. The final project is presented in a formal conference setting before a panel of faculty members and industry experts, providing students with valuable networking opportunities and feedback from professionals in the field.
