Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department places a strong emphasis on project-based learning as a means to bridge theory and practice. Mini-projects are integrated throughout the curriculum to reinforce key concepts learned in lectures and readings.
Mini-projects typically span two to three weeks and require students to work in teams to solve real-world business problems. These projects are evaluated based on criteria including teamwork, analytical skills, presentation quality, and solution feasibility.

The process involves literature review, data collection, analysis, and a comprehensive report submission.
Project selection is guided by student interests, faculty expertise, and industry relevance. Faculty members often propose research topics based on current business trends or challenges faced by organizations. Students are encouraged to propose innovative ideas that contribute to the body of knowledge in management studies.
