The Case Study Approach Of IMT Is Very Interesting & Quite New To Me
Online, February 28, 2012 (Newswire.com) - When the British polymath philosopher, Herbert Spencer had coined the phrase "survival of the fittest" derived from the Charles Darwin theory, he himself wouldn't have estimated its applicability for numerous instances. The theory is the finest sutra to understand the transitions in the management education to pace with the need of corporate world.
Global business practices require the manpower efficient in treating the whole world like a village. Now the managers have to have the skills that pose them capable of handling the business dealings abroad. So, it is the management educators who have to accept the challenges to nurture the breed of the business leaders competent to derive profits in business dealings globally.
There are few institutions, who keep updated their course structure with the industry trend. IMT-Ghaziabad is one such leading name. The institute, besides other unique course features, provides exposure like international student exchange programme to different working ethics and conditions which makes MBA education more wholesome and globally integrated.
The International Relations Committee at IMT, through such exchange programs, facilitates students with the chances to understand the international business practices, economies, work-cultures and philosophies, etc. of the regions they wish to do business with.
The institute conducts classes from the renowned management faculties from top institutions around the world. Prof. Stefani Silvana is the Full Professor of Mathematics applied to Economics and Finance at University of Milano, also takes classes at IMT-Ghaziabad. Prof Silvana, have had experience in academia from Italy to the USA, is amazed with the course curriculum at IMT. She says, "The teaching methods are comparable almost all over. I have found very interesting the case study approach, practiced at IMT on an extensive way and quite new to me.
Prof. Silvana, who has a wide range of expertise in economics, finance, environment and energy risk management, teaches the "OROT - Queuing Theory" at IMT. Operations Research is her one of the most favoured research topics.
Prof. Silvana has faced students from a various cultures and found them very smart and interested in learning. She assumes that if these students are properly motivated and exposed to internationalisation, like at IMT, can be really competent globally. "Students should always be exposed to teachers from other countries and students themselves should experience visiting foreign Institutions. IMT is very active in internationalization and absolutely comparable to other good Institutions abroad," she says and advices, "My feeling is that the teaching side is good but more can be done at the research level."
The 'e' concept has left barriers irrelevant when we talk about the learning. IMT has always been engaging the faculties from world's best management institutions through e-learning philosophy in its curriculum. Prof. Silvana has also undertaken considerable work in regard to online teaching, e.g. the TEOREMA, an e-learning project. She says, "E-learning is an important and fast developing field in education. I see it very useful in life long education for professionals as well. It is a powerful tool to reduce geographical divides and for cross cultural purposes."
