Project-Based Learning
The department's philosophy on project-based learning is centered on the principle that students learn best when they are actively engaged in solving real-world problems. The program emphasizes hands-on learning experiences through mini-projects and a final-year thesis or capstone project.
Mini-projects are typically undertaken in the third year and involve small teams of students working on specific business challenges. These projects are evaluated based on the quality of research, analysis, and presentation. The projects are designed to be practical and relevant, allowing students to apply their theoretical knowledge in real-world scenarios.
The final-year capstone project is a significant undertaking that requires students to conduct independent research or develop a comprehensive business plan. The project is supervised by a faculty mentor and is presented to a panel of industry experts. This project serves as a culmination of the student's learning journey and demonstrates their ability to solve complex business problems.
The selection of projects and mentors is a collaborative process that involves students, faculty, and industry partners. Students are encouraged to propose their own project ideas, and faculty mentors are assigned based on expertise and availability. The department also facilitates connections with industry partners who provide real-world challenges for students to solve.
