INDEX
1.0 Preamble: The revised MBA Curriculum 2019 builds on the implementation of the Choice Based Credit System
(CBCS) and Grading System initiated in the AY 2013. The curriculum takes the MBA programme to the next level in
terms of implementing Outcome Based Education along with the Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) and Grading
System.
2.0 Definitions:
2.1 Outcome Based Education:
2.1.1 Outcome Based Education (OBE) Approach: Outcomes are about performance, and this implies:
a) There must be a performer – the student (learner), not only the teacher
b) There must be something performable (thus demonstrable or assessable) to perform
c) The focus is on the performance, not the activity or task to be performed
2.1.2 Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs): Programme Educational Objectives are a set of broad future-
focused student performance outcomes that explicitly identify what students will be able to do with what they
have learned, and what they will be like after they leave school and are living full and productive lives. Thus
PEOs are what the programme is preparing graduates for in their career and professional life (to attain within a
1
few years after graduation ).
2.1.3 Graduate Attributes (GAs): Graduate Attributes (GAs) are the qualities, knowledge and capabilities that
students are encouraged to take responsibility for developing throughout their studies and are the defining
characteristics of the students passing out of the MBA program. These attributes include, but go beyond, the
disciplinary expertise or technical knowledge.
2.1.4 Programme Outcomes (POs): Programme Outcomes are a set of narrow statements that describes what
students (learners) of the programme are expected to know and be able to perform or attain by the time of
graduation.
2.1.5 Programme Specific Outcomes (PSOs): Programme Outcomes are a set of narrow statements that describes
what students (learners) of a particular specialization of the programme are expected to know and be able to
perform or attain by the time of graduation. PSOs are also a function of the various course combinations offered
by the Institute.
2.1.6 Learning Outcomes: A learning outcome is what a student CAN DO as a result of a learning experience. It
describes a specific task that he/she is able to perform at a given level of competence under a certain situation.
The three broad types of learning outcomes are:
a) Disciplinary knowledge and skills
b) Generic skills
c) Attitudes and values
2.1.7 Course Outcomes (COs): A set of specific statements that describes the complex performances a student should
be capable of as a result of learning experiences within a course.
2.1.8 Teaching and Learning Activities (TLAs): The set of pedagogical tools and techniques or the teaching and
learning activities that aim to help students to attain the intended learning outcomes and engage them in these
learning activities through the teaching process.
2.1.9 Outcome Based Assessment (OBA): An assessment system that asks course teachers to first identify what it is
that we expect students to be able to do once they have completed a course or program. It then asks course
teachers to provide evidence that they are able to do so. In other words, how will each learning outcome be
assessed? What evidence of student learning is most relevant for each learning outcome and what standard or
criteria will be used to evaluate that evidence? Assessment is therefore a key part of outcome-based education
and used to determine whether or not a qualification has been achieved.

Graduation refers to passing out of the MBA programme. Graduation does NOT refer to 10+2+3/4 degree e.g. BA, BE, etc.

SUBJECT TO THE minimum and maximum limits of credits prescribed and, subject to institutional norms and
guidelines, issued from time to time.
6.0 Summer Internship Project: At the end of Second Semester each student shall undertake a Summer Internship
Project (SIP) for a minimum of 8 weeks. For SIP, 1 credit is equivalent to minimum 40-45 hours of effective work. SIP
shall have 6 credits. It is mandatory for the student to seek advance written approval from the faculty guide and the
Director of the Institute about the topic and organization before commencing the SIP.
The SIP may or may not have a Functional Focus, i.e. the student may take up a SIP in his/her intended area of
specialization or in any other functional area of management. Ideally the SIP should exhibit a cross-functional
orientation. SIP can be carried out in a Corporate Entity / NGO / SME / Government Undertaking / Cooperative Sector.
SIP may be a research project – based on primary / secondary data or may be an operational assignment involving
working by the student on a given task/assignment/project/ etc. in an organization / industry. It is expected that the SIP
shall sensitize the students to the demands of the workplace.
Each student shall maintain a SIP Progress Diary detailing the work carried out and the progress achieved on a daily
basis. The student shall submit a written structured SIP report based on work done during this period. The student shall
submit the SIP Progress Diary along with the SIP Report.
Students shall also seek a formal evaluation of their SIP from the company guide. The formal evaluation by the
company guide shall comment on the nature and quantum of work undertaken by the student, the effectiveness and
overall professionalism. The learning outcomes of the SIP and utility of the SIP to the host organization must be
specifically highlighted in the formal evaluation by the company guide. The SIP evaluation sheet duly signed and
stamped by the industry guide shall be included in the final SIP report.
The SIP report must reflect 8 weeks of work and justify the same. The SIP report should be well documented and
supported by –
1. Institute’s Certificate
2. Certificate by the Company
3. Formal feedback from the company guide
4. Executive Summary
5. Organization profile
6. Outline of the problem/task undertaken
7. Research methodology & data analysis (in case of research projects only)
8. Relevant activity charts, tables, graphs, diagrams, AV material, etc.
9. Learning of the student through the project
10. Contribution to the host organization
11. References in appropriate referencing styles. (APA, MLA, Harvard, Chicago Style etc.)
The completion of the SIP shall be certified by the respective Faculty Guide & approved by the Director of the Institute.
The external organization (Corporate / NGO/ SME/ Government Entity/ Cooperative/ etc.) shall also certify the SIP work.
th
The students shall submit a spiral bound copy of the SIP report by 15 September. The Institute shall conduct an
th th
internal viva-voce for evaluation of the SIP for 50 marks between 15 September to 30 September. The Panel shall
comprise of two evaluators appointed by the Director of the Institute / Head of Department (for MBA departments in
engineering colleges). Institutes are encouraged to involve senior alumni, industry experts, recruiters to conduct the
internal viva-voce. The internal viva-voce panel shall provide a detailed assessment of the SIP report and suggest
changes required, if any.
After the internal viva-voce, the student shall finalize the SIP report by incorporating all the suggestions and
recommendations of the internal viva-voce panel. The internal guide shall then issue the Institute’s Certificate to the
student.
th
The student shall submit TWO hard copies & one soft copy (CD) of the project report before 30 October in Sem III. One
hard copy of the SIP report is to be returned to the student by the Institute after the External Viva-Voce. In the interest

of environmental considerations, students are encouraged to print their project reports on both faces of the paper.
Spiral bound copies may be accepted.
There shall be an external viva-voce for the SIP for 50 marks. The external viva-voce shall be conducted after the theory
exam of Semester III.
The Internal & the External viva-voce shall evaluate the SIP based on:
1. Adequacy of work undertaken by the student
2. Application of concepts learned in Sem I and II
3. Understanding of the organization and business environment
4. Analytical capabilities
5. Technical Writing & Documentation Skills
6. Outcome of the project – sense of purpose
7. Utility of the project to the organization
8. Variety and relevance of learning experience
Copies of SIP report and records of evaluation shall be maintained by the Institute for a period of 3 academic years.
