A recent example is the Continuing Management Development Program for senior managers of ELGI Equipments, Coimbatore. The CMDP was a unique learning program which ran for a year – designed as a customized Executive MBA programme covering all key functional areas of Management like Finance, General Management, HRM, Marketing, Operations, and Systems, with classes being held in ASB on alternate weekends.
The Amrita School of Business entered its second phase of growth in 2009 with the launch of the MBA program across three additional campuses — Amritapuri (Kollam), Bengaluru, and Kochi. The Bengaluru campus further introduced the Executive MBA program, offered in collaboration with the State University of New York, University at Buffalo (SUNY–UB).
Today, the Amrita School of Business has expanded its presence to six campuses — Coimbatore, Amritapuri, Bengaluru, Kochi, Mysuru, and Amaravati — continuing its commitment to excellence in management education and global academic collaboration.
All of this expansion and international linkages are happening in a broader global economic context. The business community is increasingly feeling the need for managers with stronger ethical and moral values. Concerns with the global climate change are also receiving increasing attention from leaders in business and government. India as a nation and Indian managers are expected to play a much stronger role in the global business arena. Amrita School of Business has been emphasizing the role of managers towards the larger society as well as the environment, right from its inception. Our focus on value based management education derives strength and justification from the recent developments. We are confident to be able to respond to these global needs, and develop young managers ready to meet the emerging challenges, and contribute towards creating a more equitable and more harmonious world. Our vision and mission, our leadership, coupled with our excellent faculty as well as state-of-the-art infrastructure are all geared towards fulfilment of this objective.
