The Case Study Advantage
The case method of teaching is integrated as a dominant
tool
in the education methodology of the University. To be an effective professional,
the student has to be trained to think and act like one. Thus, the programs have
a very strong case study orientation. The program will use case studies of
reputed Indian and international companies. The courseware provided to the
students contains a number of case studies on Indian and international
companies. These cases will help the student understand the complexities in
various business, political, legal and social environment.
