School of Management Studies & Commerce

The School of Management Studies & Commerce offers many programmes of study in ‘Management’ and ‘Commerce’. The aim of the School is to achieve excellence in all its academic pursuits. The School believes in the philosophy that ‘Open and Distance Learning’ (ODL) and ‘Face-to-Face’ learning cannot afford to have the two distinct sets of standards in terms of quality. Thus, the guiding norm of the School is to strive for value-based quality education for its learners.

Additionally, the School has a special orientation towards ‘Ethics and Human Values’. Accordingly, ‘Centre for Human Values and Ethics’ has been established under the aegis of the School. The focus of Management programmes is on the quality of management education by giving adequate attention to application of knowledge, self- awareness amongst learners, development of problem solving aptitude and decision making skills.
