Student’s Perspective
SURAJIT BAG
Maple Orgtech (I) Ltd.
From my experience I have learnt that students at NBS have the advantage of developing a cross functional knowledge base. The well designed courses along with the emphasis on case-based interactive learning prepares students to become business leaders of tomorrow. To develop leadership skills and techniques like Lateral Thinking, we had sessions under Peter de Bono, Dr. Tapan Panda (IIM Indore) and others. At NSHM a great emphasis is also given to developing Organizational Behaviour Skills for the students who are gearing up to step into the corporate world. I am happy to say that after graduating from NBS, I joined Maple Orgtech (I) Ltd.

Life at NSHM was truly a learning experience... I still remember the quote in the library which said, "Here knowledge is free, you just have to carry your own container". This is so true at NSHM. The campus gives you all that you need or want from good infrastructure to great faculty members to opportunities to excel and so on. As far as my experience goes it's been the one to remember for a lifetime. I am also happy to share that my NSHM education has helped me bag a lucrative job at Kotak Mahindra Bank.

The knowledge that I received at NSHM Business School can be summed up in two words – Experiential Learning. It was a complete education, which went far beyond the four walls of classrooms. Great interactions and workshops with industry experts, personality development skills, real world strategy planning sessions, Lateral Thinking modules by Peter de Bono, and the list of good things that we experienced is endless. Thanks to my education at NBS, I am now employed in an important position at Balmer Lawrie.

Specialization Marketing
Marketing as a discipline observes the entire business process as consisting of a firmly integrated effort to determine, generate, awaken and gratify customer requirements. Since marketing progresses with time, it is a critical consideration while designing the marketing curriculum. The nature of consumers and solutions crafted in response by business firms, change both incrementally and drastically over time. A comprehensive analysis of this ever-evolving marketing world and its incorporation into marketing learning is what guarantees an up-to-date curriculum of the Marketing Area. A curriculum in effect is limited until delivery. What truly enhances marketing learning at the School is a faculty that consists of top-notch academics and practitioners. A fine blend of experts drawn from every area of the marketing value chain ensures that marketing courses across terms lead from one to another seamlessly. The tools they use ensure conceptual and application-oriented learning. The result is a collaborative environment that fosters the building of marketing expertise. This in turn facilitates market readiness among students.
