PROGRAMME STRUCTURE
Students can earn a dual specialization by opting for elective courses in any two functional areas of management. The bouquet of specialization comprises of Finance, Marketing, IT, HRM, and International Business. Each specialization area offers many innovative courses for emerging careers in management.
FMS - IRM follows a continuous system of assessment and evaluation for the measurement of learning outcomes by students. Each course therefore assesses learning by a blend of quizzes, assignments, case/exercise analysis, discussion/report submission, project/term paper, mid-term examination, and end-term examination.
Pedagogy The Faculty employs the latest techniques in teaching and training the students. The methods used are classroom sessions, seminars, workshops, group exercises, take-home assignments, case studies, term papers, presentation of written and oral reports, business and behavioral games, and field practices of varying duration. There are guest lectures by visiting dignitaries regularly.
Attendance To inculcate organizational discipline among the students and to make the learning process more effective students must obtain a minimum of 75% attendance in each course, to be allowed to appear for the examination.
Evaluation & Grading The Evaluation of student performance in each subject unit has three components:
- Continuous Evaluation
- Mid-Term Examination
- End-Term Examination
Continuous evaluation is carried out through various devices such as Class Participation, Unannounced Quizzes, Assignments, Term Papers, Case Presentations, Class Tests and live Projects. The Mid-Term Examination is an online evaluation process wherein the students appear on a computer based online objective examination. A written End-Term examination at the end of each semester concludes the evaluation of the student for that semester. In addition, an assessment of the Managerial Traits (MT) of students in terms of general conduct on the campus, overall discipline, organizational skills, leadership abilities, and communication skills will be done by a separate panel nominated by the President who keeps a close vigil on each student and also interacts with each faculty member, before awarding the above marks to the students.
