RE: [MTC Global] Fwd: ~ * MBA Is Getting Out Dated ? ~ For information.

The present sorry state of affairs of MBA is because of a simple reason that institutions have failed to create learning environment in the campuses that is joint responsibility of managements and teachers and both of them are engaged in blame game.

The present sorry state of affairs of MBA can be attributed to  lack of blend of academicians and  practitioners to teach the students. The students do not  get any exposure to  practicial insights, noon-use of case studies  as a  pedagogical tool, mushroom growth of institutions preying upon the innocent  students and paretnts.  The education is  viewed as  profitable venture,without focusing on quality of teaching and curriculum. 

the fast buck culture should give place to  enrichment of the programme  in tune with the market needs, and enlightened MBAs.  Teaching management skills should be the top priority of any professional programme.

WANT TO BE'

 

 

THEY DEFINITELY  ARE WHAT THEY WILL BE.

 

WHAT ROLE OUR INSTITUTES HAVE  PLAYED  TO  FILL IN  THIS CHASM OF 

 

 " WHAT THEY WANT TO BE"  &  "WHAT THEY WILL BE"

 

 

THE TROUBLE WITH OUR SYSTEM IS THAT OLDIES IN CHAIRS  WERE NEVER

I am reading and thinking on this issue since last 4-5 years and as a faculty of Business Management, i have one question to the system, Is is that there is no requirement of efficient managers in Corporate sector? there is, in fact there is dearth of efficient business professional, the reason behind declining trends in MBA is that it has not changed as per the requirements of corporate and still the delevery mode of  MBA degree is same as what it used to be in 80's. how these student will be able to match up with the dynamic challenges of todays corporate life when the input they got was just outdated. 

 

So if MBA is required to be revamped, it is the urgent need at the part of educationists to transform it with current business mechanism. then again MBA degree will regain its importance.

On hire: MBA graduates for Rs 10,000 per month

"There are no takers for MBA, it seems. Had I known the job scene would be so disappointing, I would have pursued BCom," said an applicant.

Master of Business Administration, which used to be a status symbol only two decades ago, has reduced itself to a 

poor man's degree if the salaries offered to fresh MBA grads at GTU are anything to go by. While around 62% MBA seats are vacant this year, employers are hiring MBA grads for as less as Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000 and the varsities are not even letting out a whimper. Gujarat Technological University conducted a three-day placement for a finance company which made it clear beforehand that it would offer not more than Rs 1.44 lakh to Rs 1.80 lakh per annum to students from Ahmedabad, Rajkot, Vadodara and Surat. Rural students would be hired for Rs 1.20 lakh to Rs 1.44 lakh per annum by the company, according to the information put up on GTU website by the varsity's Integrated Training and Placement Cell (ITAP).

Around 300 students had participated in the recruitment interviews conducted by this company, according to GTU officials. These are the students who have paid between Rs 55,000 to Rs 1lakh to pursue the course. A student who participated in the placements that concluded on Tuesday said on condition of anonymity, "We passed out in April and have not been able to find a job yet. There are no takers for MBA, it seems. Had I known the job scene would be so disappointing, I would have pursued BCom. I frankly do not mind a salary of Rs 10,000 per month.

Something is better than nothing." ITAP Head Apurv Raval said, "In the threeday placement, 300 MBA graduates from across the state had participated. Around 30 were shortlisted. We make best efforts to ensure that the graduates get maximum salaries. However, in several cases the initial salary is less. Recently, Axis Security was on campus for placements and offered an annual package of Rs 1.50 lakh while engineers were offered Rs 3.6 lakh per annum by Wipro." However, Gujarat University Vice Chancellor M N Patel, is of the opinion that the varsity should put its foot down and fight for its students.

"There are 100 applicants for one job these days. Two to three years ago, the recruiting companies offered attractive packages, but now that is not the case. That said, GTU should learn to negotiate with the companies and get the best packages for its students rather than letting them down." He added, "Once you allow a company to pick your student for as less as Rs 1.80 lakh, then the next company would offer even less." Janak Khandwala, president, Association of SFI Professional Institutes said, "As far as MBA is concerned, GTU has not even designed the course properly.

It should ideally be case-study based and there should be more field work. Students who pursue the course should be able to meet the requirements of the industry. Besides, nowadays there is a huge demand-supply gap and that has led to the drop in salary packages." Not just MBA, even MCA (Master of Computer Application) has around 80 per cent seats vacant. In precise numbers, it means out of total 21,260 MBA, MCA and MCA (lateral) seats, only 4,389 have been filled while 16,871 are still vacant.

Admission Committee for Professional Courses (ACPC) has added that the number of vacant seats could be even higher as many candidates who have secured admission to MBA may opt for other courses. An ACPC official said, "There were totally 21,260 seats in MBA, MCA and MCA Lateral. Out of them, 16,871 are still vacant. In MBA course, 2,408 seats have been filled while 6,211are vacant; in MCA, only 538 seats have been filled while 4,521are vacant; and in MCA (lateral), 6,139 seats are vacant and only 1,443 seats are filled in." ACPC Member Secretary G P Vadodaria said, "The first round of seat allotment was done on Tuesday. Around 80 per cent seats are vacant in MBA, MCA and MCA (Lateral) courses. More seats could fall vacant in the coming days."

IMPORTANT DATES: MBA/MCA

July 26 to July 29 - Deposition of tuition fees in bank and online generation of admission slip July 27 to July 30 - Online cancellation of admission July 27 to July 30 - Consent of reshuffling, filling and alteration of choices (if any) in Round 2 August 4 - Commencement of academic term
