What makes Department of Commerce & Management at
St. Joseph’s College (Autonomous) different from others?
The world
today is changing at such an accelerated rate and we as educators need to pause
and reflect on this entire system of Education. Are our colleges well equipped
to prepare our students to face the challenges that the future holds? Questions
such as these are factors that motivate us to go through a continuous process
of reflection and hence we at Department of Commerce work at implementing a
well-balanced curriculum to ensure that the students who walk into the portals
of our college will not just love their college life but truly be prepared to
face life’s challenges. Since its inception the department has not only focused
on the academic excellence of its students but also has nurtured their
potentials by providing holistic education.
In order to
equip the students to assume the diverse roles in corporate world the pedagogy
adopted by the department comprises of games, role plays, quiz, industrial
visits and group exercises in addition to lectures, seminars and case methods.
The department also arranges interaction with industry/business executives,
management consultants, leaders from NGOs and civil societies and reputed
academicians for the benefit of students to impart practical orientation.
Students are evaluated through continuous internal components of class test,
presentations and assignments; and the end term exams.
Students are trained to think creatively and to develop right mindset to meet
the challenges of the globalised business environment, through value-based
education, interpersonal relations and outreach programmes.
I welcome the
aspiring youth to join Josephite family and become agents of change to serve
the ever-changing global needs in the field of commerce and society at large.
