The institution proposes to have four divisions. Divisions offering * MBA Programme * Research Programme * Training Programme * Consultancy Programme MBA Programme The division offering MBA programme would be facilitating the study of the MBA course affiliated to the University of Calicut, Malappuram District, Kerala.. Research Programme The Research Programme division would be offering facilities to conduct original research in management studies.

The beneficiaries of the program would be senior and middle level executives in the industry, entrepreneurs in the small and medium sector and also in the tiny sector. Training will also be conducted for the benefit of teaching and non-teaching staff as well. Consultancy Programme Consultancy is another area where the institution can play a major role. The small and medium enterprises in Kerala are in the development stage and requires real time support in terms of access to theoretical and practical knowledge about the various business fields in which they are operating. The function of this department has a twin objective. It can render service to the industry and also provide opportunities for the faculty to interact with the industry. Consultancy assignments undertaken by the institute will enable the institute and the facility members to earn additional income also. DETAILS OF EACH ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT/CENTRE, LIKE: Academic Objectives The institution’s objective is to impart knowledge. Information can be gathered from books and say relevant web sites. But to imbibe knowledge, knowledge has to be shared. And for the application of knowledge there has to be creativity. Every profession becomes more profound when there is creativity at its core. And the concept of creativity has to become a way of life. The academic objective of the institute is to transmit knowledge and creativity to the students. This would be achieved by constant interaction of the faculty with the students. The faculty would not be just teaching. They would be sharing their knowledge through seminars, group discussions, lectures and various other interactive sessions. The concept of creativity would be championed all through the programme. The students would be trained to hone their skill by facilitating interaction with the industry. This would be in the form of industrial visits, undertaking projects for their academic purposes and also for rendering service to industry by undertaking projects to meet their specific requirements. The students with a thirsting urge to know would be equipped to face the world at large competently. Areas of Focus The areas of focus would be * Human Resource Development * Marketing * Finance * Systems These are the major areas where there is already a surge in demand for quality MBAs at the regional and national level. At the state level the demand for people with qualifications in the field of Marketing and Finance is already there. The demand for qualified people in the Human Resources Development and systems area is also there. In view of the huge investments that is about to come into the state and more so in and around Ernakulam/ Thrissur Districts, the demand for employees in the aforesaid areas is likely to grow in leaps and bounds. The institution, at that time would be ready churning out excellent products to cater to the requirements of the state also. Laboratories The institute proposes to set up a language-learning laboratory in due course. It is commonly known as The Language Lab. It is a place where students can learn any language with the help and guidance of a teacher and can improve speaking and listening capacity. A student can get familiar with any language of his choice and also can develop skills to understand the different dialects and accents of the same language. Obviously, the objective of the language lab over here is to teach Functional and Communicative English very effectively to the students. This lab is being setup as the institute is well aware of the requirements of the students to improve their communicative skills especially in the English language. In fact, this is one area where the institution will be focusing its attention. A Language lab for 40 users is already in place.

Overall personality development is a must for the teaching staff. This would ensure that they are in a position to impart quality education to the students. The institution would facilitate this by……… a) Organizing lectures, seminars and self-development workshops by inviting resource persons from the external environment. b) These seminars would be related to the basic subjects that the faculty teaches and also on generic topics. c) Opportunities would be given to the faculty members to attend various programmes being organized by leading educational institutes in the country like the IIMs. d) The faculty members would also be encouraged to write articles and papers in leading magazines and newspapers. They would also be encouraged to publish books. e) The faculty would also get the best available teaching aids to teach the students. f) The most well read books, reference books and access to the Internet will also be provided to the faculty members to enable them grow in stature. Policies for the development of non-teaching staff: It is absolutely imperative that the non-teaching staffs are highly motivated so as to complement the efforts of the teaching staff in ensuring high quality academic delivery system to the students. The institute would be taking special care to ensure that the non-teaching staffs walk that extra mile to deliver service to the students. Some of the policies contemplated in this regard are: > Holding of “information imparting sessions:” in the form of seminars, discussions,etc to enable the staff comprehend the various rules and regulations of the concerned university to which the institution is affiliated. This is a must because the students have to be given the right information about the various important non-academic matters. > Conducting seminars and motivating sessions with the help of outside resource persons to help them in self-improvement. > Holding interactive sessions with faculty members to update their general awareness about the various requirements and needs of the students pertaining to administrative matters. > Sending them for training sessions to outside agencies for updating their office management skills, Computer operating skills etc. PERMANENT AND CONTRACT SERVICES FOR TEACHING NONTEACHING AND OTHER SUPPORT PERSONNEL. Teaching Staff The teaching faculty would be appointed on a permanent basis in conformity with AICTE norms. Guest Lecturers The guest lecturers would be paid remuneration on a hourly basis depending upon their expertise. Non-Teaching Staff The non-teaching staff would also be appointed on a permanent basis. Remuneration on the normal monetary basis would be paid to them. Other support services like the janitorial services etc would be accessed on a contractual basis. Such facilities are readily available in and around Thrissur / Ernakulam. TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT: The modern concept of quality is ‘meeting the requirements of the customers consistently every time.’ It is no more assured by test certificates and reports. Quality has to be managed by continuous improvement in the work of all the employees of an organization. And for achieving total quality, three things are essential. * Meeting customers’ requirements; Continuous improvement through management process; * Involvement of all employees. The term customer has a wider connotation here. Every process in a organization has a user within the organization. For example, in a college the non-teaching staff is required to meet the various information requirements of the students. Customer, therefore, for an organization, exist within the organization and outside the organization also. The concept of Total Quality Management is applicable to both manufacturing organizations and also organization rendering any type of services. It is equally applicable to an educational institution. The institution is very much aware of this aspect. The institution recognizes the fact that in the days of a competitive environment ahead, the only way to grow is to ensure utmost quality in its services rendering systems. The institution would take care to ensure all the requirements of customers are met at all levels. The institution recognizes the fact that each and every employee of the organization is an integral part of it and plays a major role and this would be clearly communicated to all the employees. Interactive discussions between all the constituents of the instructions would be held regularly to trace evidences of problems and dissatisfactions and every effort would be made to mend the same. A SWOT analysis would be made and immediate action would be taken to surmount the weaknesses. Only when all the constituents of the organization are happy and motivated will there be dynamism in the organization and it is only this dynamism that brings about a robust growth in the organization. The various training sessions meant for all the employees and students, the seminars and discussions held regularly would ensure that the employees and students are a motivated lot. Quality in services rendered by an organization normally deteriorates when the employees are disgruntled when they are experiencing problems and also foresee more and more problems. This factor can be handled only when the problems are redressed on time. In fact, very often it is observed that a sincere attempt to redress itself would suffice. This institution would be focusing on this aspect very significantly to ensure that the comfort levels of the employees and students are taken care of. All actions and care would also be taken to ensure that the ultimate end user, the student, is a satisfied customer.
