What we have in management education?
We have ten IIMs, the prominent institution in management program, in our country and the recent report says that two more IIMs are yet to come in this field.
We have around 1,700 institutes offering various management courses and of which 900 have AICTE certification. Over the past eight to ten years we are witnesses to an incredible growth in the number of educational institution in our country.
But all the figures do not support any improvement in the quality aspects. All the good and bad institutions come under the same umbrella of Management course and we are lacking even a separate controlling and monitoring body for the B-Schools.
All the management courses in India is monitored and controlled by AICTE, All India Council for the Technical Education. Why we don’t have an AICME, All India Council for Management Education?
Our curriculum is identified by giving more importance to the theoretical part rather than its applications. A manager or the entrepreneur never asked to reproduce the theory when he is in a real life situation. Our text books cover the social and economic condition of the nation for a name and can see a complete avoidance for the international perspective.
We use out-dated case studies with traditional evaluation system. We follow poor admission process and pedagogy but number one issue is still the lack of proper resources and infrastructure. We also don’t believe in having industry linkage while studies and acting like research based study in management is a common offense. This is where India is at its management education.
