Project-Based Learning Philosophy
Our department's philosophy on project-based learning is grounded in the belief that students learn best when they actively engage with real-world challenges. This approach transforms abstract concepts into concrete experiences, fostering deeper understanding and skill development.
The mandatory mini-projects begin in the second year and continue throughout the program. These projects typically span 8-12 weeks and require students to work in teams of 3-5 members. Each project is designed to address a specific business challenge or opportunity identified by industry partners or faculty members.
Mini-project structure includes initial problem identification, research and analysis phases, solution development, and presentation to stakeholders. Students are required to submit detailed project reports that demonstrate their analytical capabilities, teamwork skills, and practical application of management concepts.
The final-year thesis/capstone project is a comprehensive endeavor that typically takes 16-20 weeks to complete. Students select projects in consultation with faculty advisors and industry mentors, ensuring alignment with current business needs and personal interests. The capstone project culminates in a public presentation and submission of a substantial research paper or business plan.
Evaluation criteria for both mini-projects and the capstone project include problem identification skills, analytical depth, innovation in solution development, teamwork effectiveness, presentation quality, and practical applicability of findings. Faculty members from various specializations serve as advisors, providing guidance throughout the project process.
Student project selection is facilitated through a structured process that includes project proposals, faculty mentor matching, and resource allocation. Students are encouraged to propose projects related to their areas of interest while ensuring alignment with program learning outcomes and industry relevance.
