Course programme
The core curriculum of PGDM develops essential skills and knowledge in the areas of economics, organisation and behaviour, finance and accounting, management control, marketing, human resource management, information systems and quantitative methods.
After successfully completing the first year requirements, the students undertake summer training of up to ten weeks at the managerial level. Students analyse and offer solutions to specific managerial problems under the guidance of a faculty member as well as a manager in the host company.
Second year students structure their studies to suit their aptitude and interest. They usually develop one or two major areas of expertise by selecting courses from the 60 to 80 electives that the Institute typically offers. Students willing to delve deeper into a topic that is not covered by the elective courses can do a term paper under faculty supervision.
The method of instruction varies. Case studies, lectures, group and individual exercises, class projects, student presentations, simulation games etc., are used in different courses. Many courses bring in industry experts to integrate classroom learning with industry practice.
The Finance and Control Group provides teaching and research in the areas of Accounting and Control, and Corporate Finance. The courses offered include basic courses in financial and management accounting and corporate finance in the first year. The optional courses in the second year focus on financial derivatives, risk management, business valuation, and quantitative finance.
Faculty research in the area of Financial Accounting looks beyond the boundaries of traditional accounting. The primary research interests of the Group include work on contemporary issues in financial reporting, disclosure, and contracts using financial information.
Faculty research in the area of Control includes understanding the role of information and measurement systems for allocating resources among firms in the economy, and between departments or divisions of individual firms; measuring performance of business segments; executive compensation; understanding the profitability of suppliers, products, customers, distribution channels, and business units; and formulating, executing and evaluating strategy by firm managers.
Faculty research in the area of Finance includes the study of the theory and practice of corporate finance, and study of markets and institutions for financial assets. Its greater emphasis is on business fields and its focus is on the use of economic analysis and statistical methods in dealing effectively with management problems in these applied business fields.
The Group uses its research output in teaching PGP students and in teaching executives in executive management programmes. It involves Fellow Programme students in Faculty research.
