Programme Objective

The larger aim is to create management graduates who are innovative, capable of handling uncertainties of corporate life and have futuristic insights in the short period of one Year. To achieve this, the PG program at EABS, has been designed by renowned academicians alumnus of Harvard, Cambridge, and IIMs along with global business leaders. The program is both extensive and robust.

The three least satisfied aspects from student expectations of increased Career Options, in a 2008 global MBA Graduates’ Survey, were
  1. Right connections to get a good job in the future
  2. Mentors to help achieve student’s goals
  3. Opportunities to contribute to solving some of the world’s problems
At EABS, we have made every effort to address these concerns of MBA aspirants. For instance, our seminar-series on leadership provide our students insights from top business leaders and practical inputs to solve the real life business problems. This is an interactive and highly appreciated module by majority of our students. A high student-faculty ration (1:5) ensures that every student has a mentor to help him throughout the course.

The new challenge in management education is to understand the global interdependence which further draws attention to the wider and more complex set of issues surrounding the "internationalization" of society. Under our International module, students get an opportunity to visit one of our academic partners abroad; this gives them an exposure to global business practices and also a chance to understand the values and culture outside India.

How this program will add value to your career

The educational approach of the One Year Programme is a careful balance of case learning along with course work, lectures, experiential exercises, workshops and field studies. Students would become members of supportive and challenging learning communities. The experience would be hands-on and teamwork based, with extensive opportunities to work with real companies and real managers on real projects. Classes are taught in state-of-the-art class-rooms with wi-fi network access. The institute has syndicate rooms, which offer students opportunities for experimentation, video practice, simulation exercises and group preparation. The full-time program is rigorous, intellectually demanding and time-intensive. Students typically spend 60-80 hours per week on course work and projects.

The programme fosters collaborative learning approach. The ability to work in and manage teams is becoming increasingly important in business practice. Taking those skills from the program is a key part of each student's leadership growth. Students are assigned to small teams for the entire Year of study. These teams are composed of students with diverse backgrounds and experiences to enhance the overall learning experience for each team member. In group projects, study groups and competitive assignments, teamwork is crucial to success. A greater understanding of teams is bolstered through formal discussions and presentations throughout the Year. In addition to formal team projects, a strong community of mutual support develops from the important role informal study groups play in the school's academic culture.

Industry Oriented Training

The curriculum is blended with practical learning approaches which require students to spend one-third of their academic time in live-projects with partner companies to blend theory with practice. The students are exposed to real-time international scenarios during their internship and international study course. This participation benefits in exposure to best practices of international companies and understanding of the local markets.
