A variety of teaching and learning techniques
are employed to impart knowledge and skills to students at
FMS. Lectures, case analysis, simulation games and exercises,
syndicates, group discussions and practical project work are
commonly used to develop conceptual, analytical and decision
making skills and to prepare the students to face the challenges
of the complex business and organisational environment. An
attempt is made to assess the students' performance through
a continuous system of tests, quizzes, mid-term and semester-end
examination to ensure highest academic standards as well as
practical orientation.
LIVE PROJECTS
Though classroom learning is given emphasis at FMS,
students are required to undertake a number of practical projects
in the different courses of the programme for which the information
gathered from business/industry is analyzed and presented
in the form of reports
SUMMER TRAINING
While exposing the students to the theories and concepts
of modern management, no efforts are spared to develop a practical
orientation in them. After completing the first two semesters
of instruction during the first year, all MBA (Full-Time)
students are required to undertake practical training in an
organization for a period of ten weeks during the summer months.
Each student is selected by a reputed company and given a
practical assignment. The student works under the guidance
of a senior manager in the organization and submits a report
to the organization
DISSERTATION
Every student in the final semester of the programme
is required to undertake a project assignment under the guidance
of a faculty supervisor. The student should choose a topic
on which primary data is to be gathered and analyzed in order
to prepare a dissertation, which is evaluated by a panel of
experts.
