Technology and Value Sensitisation, an Indian Approach in Management Education
Dr. TR Pandey, Director, AKGIM
Ajay Kumar Garg Institute of Management, Ghaziabad (AKGIM), being a techno savvy B-School has developed its own system of regular evaluation and continual change in everything undertaken, to ensure that the requisite value creation and its delivery takes place holistically. AKGIM, besides, stressing on the data driven approach to teaching, have stood firm to what we call is balancing of value engineering and technology in the classroom. This all, however, has been complemented by multi-faceted dynamic professoriate nurtured at the institute which helps convert vision into strategy and implement the same with the use of technological and non-technological resources for specified outcomes. Accordingly, as an institution we channelize all our collective resources in areas which respond the most as per our concept of quality education, environmental sensitivity and professionalism. Given the frequent economic fluctuations arising inside and at times from out of factors beyond the border, the demand for “agile and dynamic” MBA will only see sharp rise and AKGIM Ghaziabad is fulfilling its responsibilities accordingly. Our efforts have led to drastic rise in the number of companies knocking our doors in the last few years. Many of the companies have been quite regular in the choice of AKGIM students for final and formal accommodation in their workforce at salaries increasingly being better. Our students and alumni have been getting their respectable place in companies like TCS, E&Y, Accenture, Polycab, Reliance to name a few. Companies from all sectors and domain have landed every year in the campus. However, it takes a lot of efforts to get the students befitting of the companies and ‘Training and Placement’ wing at the campus in close coordination with the faculty members and companies during summer internships has been regularly innovative and forward looking. Our CLT (Corporate Liaison Team) students too have been independently working from front when it comes to approaching, devising and revising the mechanisms being followed periodically on the front of industry-college coordination.
The institute has entrepreneurship wing known as AIEDEC which works to propagate and promote entrepreneurial mindsets for certain section of our young minds at the campus. Besides, some students always exhibit unusual managerial talent traits. In order to sharpen and harness such potential, there is SPEED Center too wherein such brains are worked upon in a very systematic and scientific style to see them succeeding beyond routine. The institute also boasts of lab known as Center of Excellence for Data Analytics where all latest software is available complemented with faculty experts in the domain to help students with inclination towards data sciences to prosper.
