The SBS pedagogy is a carefully crafted mix of lectures, case studies, project work and internships. These are supplemented by role play, simulation games and syndicate discussions, among other things. Activities such as Vipasana, Pranayam and Yoga have been seamlessly integrated into the programme, with a view to enhance the life skills of the participants.

At SBS the emphasis is on learning by performing. We use a number of methods to give you thousands of opportunities to perform various tasks which a manager or a leader would perform at his work. The pedagogy uses:

Case based studies

in most of the classroom sessions, you need to come prepared with a case study analysis; you need to present your views to the class and take part in subsequent discussions; you learn by relating theoretical constructs with simulated learning through case studies.

Projects

at SBS, the faculty make you involved in numerous consulting projects throughout your terms.

Assignments

at SBS, you need to work on and submit a significant number of desk projects and assignment based upon your theoretical learning.

Role Play Exercises

Grand Project

at the end of your long term six months internship at industry, you need to work on a Grand Project which is the culmination of your learning at SBS. This project, in essence, is a dissertation in which you need to synthesize.

Business Performance & Corporate Dashboards

Industry leaders and corporate executives are invited to complement classroom learning. Two objectives are kept in mind while inviting guest speakers – one, to expose students to management practices in various industries and two, to give them insights into various career options across industry sectors.

Several visits to production facilities and corporate offices are organized throughout the year. Some of the prominent visits had been to Amul’s factory, Wellspun, Mundra Port, Nandan Exim Ltd., Radio Mirchi operations, etc.

In the fast changing world of business, where uncertainties challenge you every day and where you have to learn newer ways of doing things perhaps every quarter, you need someone to cheer you up and stand beside you in your hours of triumphs and agonies.

The world of SBS represents and simulates the real world of business. Here, academic rigor challenges you to master multiple subjects, work long hours, work in diverse teams, come prepared and perform in class, succeed in the continuous evaluation process, attend guest lectures, visit industries and even participate in academic and non-academic events. It’s a rigorous journey which often put you down with stress and agonies. Even if you don’t feel stressed, you may feel lost at times with so much of pressure to perform. You need help at such times when the chips are down or the way ahead is cloudy.

At SBS, we help you with a 5-Pronged Mentoring System. Mentors become your tutors, guide and friends. They stand by you to help you sail through the intricate world of SBS and reach your goals. We assign Faculty Guides to help you in subject knowledge. There are Peer Mentors to help you understand your electives and design your career plans. There are Industry Mentors to help you during your internship. Expert Mentors are trained Psychologies who counsel you to manage your stress and agonies. We even help your parents to mentor you throughout to help you get the social cushion.
