I feel more confident on how to handle complex problems and provide solutions after completion of this programme. I feel the Cornell experience along with my enriching experience at SPJIMR will add immense value to my profile and will help me stand out. Thank you SPJIMR for this opportunity."
Social Sensitivity
This involves working with NGOs in a rural setting for about 2 weeks. This two week module will help you appreciate the way non-profits grapple with promoting big ideas as they build their networks and organisations with little power and limited resources.
The Centre for Development of Corporate Citizenship (DOCC) was established with a view to bring management education closer to reality in the Indian context.
DOCC also exposes participants to the dynamics of life in rural India, where modern day tele-connectivity has opened up new opportunities while many of the traditional challenges like poor infrastructure remain.
You work on a 10 day project to be implemented in socially or economically disadvantaged sectors in urban/rural areas through a variety of activities that include field visits, consulting and research in the social sector. Your project reports are evaluated by an expert panel comprising faculty, representatives of NGOs and corporate leaders.
Pedagogy
At SPJIMR, we stress on honing your skills with a unique three pronged approach of Knowing (knowledge), Doing (skills) and Being (attitude). The effort is made to build suitable stimuli into non-classroom learning.
You will benefit from our globally acclaimed and award winning value- based leadeship development modules like Assessment & Development of Managerial and Administrative Potential (ADMAP), the Personal Growth Lab (PG Lab), the Development of Corporate Citizenship (DOCC) and the Science of Spirituality (SOS).
Along with theoretic classroom inputs, the programme encourages you to constantly be in touch with the industry and industry trends, through:
Working on live projects, cases, guest speaker series and mentorship programmes with the industry speakers.
Our annual conclave - Samavesh, which brings top business leaders on campus to interact with students, participate in panel discussions and enable a rich exchange between business and academics.
The choice of pedagogic methods at SPJIMR is based on an important conviction expressed by the following three propositions:
The learning experience must result in the enhancement of the capabilities of the individual for actual practice
Professional life cannot be devoid of values and social responsiveness
The knowledge-seeker must own up the process of education and must accept responsibility for professional growth and development.
Student life @ PGPM
We believe that professional clubs, if functioning well, will have a great impact on the personality and placements of the participants. These clubs are platforms for participants to interact with alumni and professionals in their fields of interest. This helps them to build formal and informal networks while exploring career opportunities.
At SPJIMR- PGPM, Student committees are formed to encourage the concept of "Learning by Doing". In these committees, the participants may freely experiment with ideas and learn to work effectively to develop:
- 'Team skills' and 'collaboration' without compromising on individual interests.
- Learn human relations, 'interpersonal skills' and 'self management' in order to ‘get things done’ in an organisation.
- Learn the biggest tool for success - 'influencing without power'. The participants will work with their peer group over whom they have no power or authority and 'get work done'.
