MBA Foundation Program

this module helps students develop skills that can aid in writing documents and preparing presentations. Efficient written communication is an integral part of an MBA program as it helps students with the coursework and also prepares them for the real work environment. The focus of the business and academic writing module is to help students adapt skills such as:

• • Context and audience analysis;
  • Identifying the message behind the content and its purpose;
  • Inculcating visual designs to make the form of written communication comprehensible;
  • Ensuring that written communication is understandable and can be used to retrieve useful information.

since basic quantitative skills are instrumental for core MBA courses, students taking up the MBA foundation course will be reintroduced to subjects such as basic algebra and statistics. These skills are important to understand the underlying concepts of courses such as finance, operations, project management and accounting. In addition to the basic quantitative skills, students will also learn in depth about ways of using quantitative data to support business decision-making.

in order to understand business concepts better, it is essential to have a strong hold over basic economic concepts and their practical application. This module branches out into two parts – micro-economics and macro-economics, wherein students learn about concepts such as:

• • Components of supply, demand and elasticity;
  • Taxes and price regulation;
  • Market and pricing structure;
  • International economics;
  • Economic fluctuations;
  • Economic growth, investments and financial systems;
  • Production, consumption and costs.
