Need for producing Quality Management Graduates Stressed
Quantitative growth in management institutions is not sufficient
and it is necessary to ensure that these schools produce management graduates of
quality, C. Swaminathan, Vice-Chancellor of Bharathiar University, said here on
16 April.
Delivering the graduation day address at the SNS College of Engineering, he said
it was essential to nurture a work culture among the management students even during
the time of study.
"Teachers of management assert that the O-L-R model is the need of the hour. Management
students need to have the three skills set, namely Observation, Learning and Reporting.
Only this will ensure they are distinct and have a different style of working,"
the VC said.
"An MBA graduate should make use of every opportunity in the classroom to take part
in discussions or in seminars, to debate and to discuss issues thrown up by teachers
or fellow students," Mr. Swaminathan said.
Though premier business schools were a class apart, business schools which were
a part of a college faced certain problems such as lack of adequate faculty and
lecture-driven teaching. He urged the candidates to become managers with strong
ethical and moral values. V. K. Shunmughanaathan, principal of the college, administered
the oath. S. N. Subbramanian, chairman of the college, presided.
