|
|
ABS has an Academic Advisory Board (See Annexure) and Career Advisory Board (See Annexure). They meet at least once a year and its recommendations are presented before CAB. After the approval of AAB, it is incorporated in the program syllabi. Recommendations are taken at two levels i.e. feedback of faculty in collaboration with Program Leader and Post Graduate Program Committee of the students. At ABS PGP Committee is chosen based on the results of Proficiency test and Semester Exams. Here membership is not guaranteed. It is one of the most coveted committees in this B School.
The Program Leaders and Director take Feedback about the program from the students and input is given to them on their queries. Faculty calls on the luminaries from the Industry and/or Academia as guest lecturers from their areas to impart value addition to the students which adds on to their expertise.
ABS has Committees and Clubs in various functional areas in which students perform in Inter/Intra Institutional activities under the able guidance of their Faculties. A number of events are organized by these bodies with an overwhelming participation from the students and weigtage of these is given in their internal assessment.
To impart a practical exposure to their conceptual knowledge, the students are given a regular input by the industry through different interactive events organized in the campus. It is through these sessions that the first hand feedback is taken and any desired additional clarity is imparted to them by the faculty.
The students are divided into different departments according to their areas of specialization and regular in house meetings are conducted to voice out any concerns in the related areas.
