Message from Dean- R & D
|
The present global scenario has opened multitude avenues for young professionals in the fields of management, information technology, mass communication and law etc. The requirements of the today's organization have completely changed in accordance with the new designs and developments in traditional organizational structures. The pace of globalization, privatization, and liberalization has vibrated the need of well-informed, skillful and expert professionals to face and tackle challenges emerging from the latest practices in business world. Paradigm shifts in policy changes have their repercussions on legal, economic, social, international and internal dimensions of business activities by and large.
In view of above IMS Dehradun has established a separate R & D wing that works to ensure the overall development of teachers as well as students. No doubt, the architects of the new age business and academic world are the teachers and researchers who through their research based quantitative and qualitative inputs can make the desired changes. Faculty members at IMS are involved in action-centric research and organizational problems are solved with academic rigor. Many faculty members have maintained their focus of research on certain key topics and have established their expertise and credibility in that area. IMS encourages its teachers to publish their papers in quality journals classified in Class A, B & C based on ISI Thomson Scientifics' Journal Impact Factor. Several global journals and publications regularly carry evidence of the work put in by IMS Dehradun's faculty. We are committed to develop the culture of research and publication and thereby perform a leading role in the region by aiding to flourish the culture of change masters through nourishing the young generation who aspire for the best. For promoting qualitative research, publication and managerial trend, IMS publishes four peer reviewed journals on biannual basis which are the knowledge pool with wide exposure that helps explore its own specialized point of view before the think tanks of varied disciplines.

Faculty members and students are encouraged to participate in seminars, conferences, workshops and symposiums which are organized by different institutions. IMS Dehradun is committed to conduct a series of FDPs on advanced analytical techniques in research and two FDPs in this series have recently been conducted and third one is scheduled in the end of March 2012.
IMS Dehradun is also in the process of setting up a consultancy wing that will have the distinction of being involved in large and complex consulting projects; helping the Industry. It will also contribute through helping the Social Sector. Its main objective will be providing high quality, cost effective and timely consultancy services to the clients. The faculty members will offer consulting services in functional and cross functional areas of business management.
Our R & D wing is greatly concerned with the quality of students as well. The main objective of R & D wing is to inculcate among students a rational and analytical mindset so that they can become good decision-makers under uncertain, strained, and dynamic business environment. The syllabus for all courses is a mixed blend of practical and conceptual flavor. Apart from regular teachers, experts from other Industry and Institutes are invited to deliver lectures on topic of current interest. This not only supplements the institutional part but also provides opportunities to students to interact with the experts. Case study based pedagogy is used that equips them with the practical knowledge of real life business problem. Besides, they are exposed to management games, extempore exercise and role plays to understand conceptual and application skills. Group discussion on the latest issues is a regular practice at IMS Dehradun. Besides, we also teach them stress management techniques so that they can feel relaxed in the strained working conditions of today's corporate world. Industrial visits are the essential part of the curriculum.
Recently, an Entrepreneurship Development Cell (EDC) has been set up that will not only aware the students about prevailing business opportunities but also assist them to start a new venture after completion of their course. The EDC will be performing various activities with the support and sponsorship of Entrepreneurship Development Institute (EDI), Gandhinagar that is the apex body in the country to promote entrepreneurship and is established by the Department of Science and Technology of Government of India. Besides, the process of setting up an Institution Industry Partnership (IIP) is also going on which will bring ample opportunities for our learners.
