RE: [MTC Global] 13% of Indian managementt graduates fail to find jobs

In fact this is where the so called accreditation agencies should wear their magnifying glass and look at matters.
In institutions of higher learning  particularly Business schools and Technical schools it should be made mandatory to recruit as Professors individuals with at-least 10 years of good quality work experience. Today we find individuals who are 100% academicians ( no knowledge of real world) who occupy positions of VC's / Director's etc...and effectively block the entry of highly capable individuals into teaching. 
It must be realized that if we are to provide meaningful education there needs to be a strong bridge and right now what we have is a vacuum! It is laughable that these are the very same individuals who keep attending conferences 'in search' of building these bridges. If this aspect is addressed you will see that schools do not become extinct over the next decade or two. Perhaps it is the feeling of 'insecurity'?

Dear Sirs,
 
It's 100 % true that the criteria is only for paper; industry experienced pepole are  humilited at the entry stage by so called experts, never give value to work done in industry ( far-far better than a  puerly secondary data based  theory research paper). So practically doors are closed at initial stage itself. If, some body is passioniate to take plunge and becomes part of the academia world; she/he is tortured day in  & day out for further career progession & even pepole comment that he was not fit for industry, that's why he/she is here !
 
The wrong perception of  the custodians of this field is to be washed of; once , we all know that we need trainer- teachers today to create industry ready managers.
 
I ,suggest, to creat a forum/ association of excellent teachers; who come from industry background to take initiative for clearing the wrong impressions thro their credentials in academic world.
 
Regards,
Sumer

Dear Mr. Rao and all members,

He has pointed all the points quite accurately, particularly point 7). Although the UGC/ AICTE recommended qualifications for associate professors/ professors in central/ state / certain deemed universities stipulate industry experienced persons with flair for teaching are most welcome, it is rarely implemented across the selection committees consisting of primarily senior and traditionally come up through educational institute route. They give more importance to educational teaching experience years and less on teaching quality effectiveness, PhD qualification and research publications that border more on theoretical knowledge creation and less on managerial relevance! On the face of it and in media conferences, all senior persons of HRD ministry and Educational commissions profusely talk of engaging industry people in education, but they do not accord encouraging status to those who have moved from industry to academia and doing an effective job to train the students!

Dear Prof.Bholanath,

This had to happen.When there has been
1.Total disregard by many management institutes to focus on imparting quality education.
2. There was a rat race among the institutes to advertise that their institute has produced 99% ,100%,98% pass results (The fact being that students are being awarded internal marks as high as 95%, 96% and so on and the same students scores just pass marks in External examination. This was only to attract more students to make money.
3.There are institutes where the Attendance records are manipulated for inspection purpose and the actual attendance is different.
4.There are faculties who want to be unbiased while giving marks but they are facing pressure from the management to inflate the marks so that the students pass and they can claim good pass percentages.
5. The institute have adopted a double edged weapon of calculating the pass percentage of students with other subjects/faculty obviously the faculty inflates the marks to prove that the subject which he teaches has better pass percentage.
6.Institute have appointed totally fresh or one or two years experienced faculty (since they come cheap) to teach the M.B.A. students. How can industry accept this.
7.Do all Ph.D. teach will Is it that non Ph.D. and several decades experienced corporate person are very poor teachers.
8 Management education is predominantly for catering to the corporate requirements.
9. Corporates will chose and pick candidates as per their evaluation. They seldom compromise on the requirements.
10. Commercialization of education by compromising on the quality has led to this.

I strongly feel there is a demand for quality M.B.A students in corporate but corporates will not pick up s**t

Subject: [MTC Global] 13% of Indian management graduates fail to find jobs

NEW DELHI: There are more Indian management students unemployed this year than in the US and other parts of the world with the unemployment rate for Indians at 13% compared to an average 10% globally for the class of 2013. The Indian unemployment rate marks a sharp jump from last year's global average of 8%. Indians also on an average earned one-third less than their American counterparts this year, according to Global Management Education Graduate survey — conducted by the Graduate Management Academic Council (GMAC) for management students in their final year of business.

 

The poll for Indian students showed that 13% graduates are not working. The top three reasons for not having found a job include lack of industry or functional experience (47%), not being able to find a job that paid well enough (29%), while 29% felt overqualified for jobs on offer. "Economic conditions vary around the world, and the employment rates among business school graduates vary as well. The poll itself did not ask alumni about the economy per se, but some mentioned tight job markets when asked for open-ended comments," said Gregg Schoenfeld, director, Management Education Research, GMAC.

The median starting annual salary offered to US citizens who graduated from a full-time two-year MBA in 2013 is $90,000, with a bonus and additional compensation of $10,000. US citizens, who graduated from a part-time MBA programmes, report a median annual salary of $85,000. In comparison, Indian students, who graduated from full-time two-year MBA programmes report a starting salary of $34,988, while their European counterparts with full-time one-year MBA programmes reported starting salaries of $101,093.

In the class of 2013, 90% alumni were employed as of September, which includes 5% identified as entrepreneurs or self-employed. This is an improvement upon the 60% of jobseekers, also from the class of 2013, who reported they received a job offer a few months prior to their graduation. Moreover, class of 2013 alumni reported improved employment status compared with the majority of global alumni in the past five years.

Employment rates vary by country and region, with 95% of US respondents employed, Latin Americans (92%), Indians (87%), Europeans (82%) and 85% for Asia-Pacific countries.

Findings represent responses from 915 students from the class of 2013 — a 19% response rate— from 129 business schools around the world. A profile of respondents by citizenship shows that 433 alumni come from the United States, India (129), Latin America (109), Asia and Australia/Pacific Islands region (96), Europe (89), Canada (25), and West Asia/Africa (20).
