KUSOM Restructures Its MBA Course

  1 min 54 sec to read

Kathmandu University School of Management (KUSOM) which is recognised as one of the best B-Schools in Nepal is taking a leap forward in higher management education by restructuring its much coveted graduate degree programme - the Masters in Business Administration (MBA). 
 
KUSOM is delivering a thoroughly restructured MBA programme which will be effective from the coming fall term 2013 (September) responding to emerging trends and needs in managing economy and society. The school is contemporising both content and delivery method of management education in its new programme.
 
Dean of KUSOM Prof Subas KC says, “The restructured MBA programme has come as a response to intensified competition in management education and the changing character of management and management education. The course revision had become almost a compulsion because of the growing criticism these days that business schools are failing to produce effective managerial leadership and entrepreneurial action.”
 
In its restructured form, KUSOM MBA is designed to give an educational experience that is more effective in integrating the three core aspects of management education: knowing, doing and being.
 
The restructured MBA focuses on several things such as exercising practically relevant and theoretically sound managerial competencies required for effective performance and practicing professional, social, ethical and personal values required in exercising professionalism in management. These competenticies are said to be developed by a mix of theories, research and experimental work during the programme. 
 
A new element of the restructured programme is the dual stream of MBA and specialist MBA degrees. Some of the specialist fields identified are: MBA (Technology Management), MBA (Human Resources), MBA (Hospitality Management), MBA (Information Management) and MBA (Entrepreneurship).
 
The total credit required for an MBA is 62 and 65 for the specialist MBA. Various courses offered such as foundation courses, core courses, integrative courses, concentration courses, elective courses and experimental projects, all have different credit loads.
 
 According to Prof KC, the updating and upgrading of the programme was done after an intensive internal review and an assessment of evolving national and global trends in both business and business education.
