MBA programmes
Input Qualification:
The students admitted to the proposed four-semester MBA programsmust:
(i) hold an Integrated First Degree of BITS or its equivalent and
(ii)be employed professionals with adequate work experience in relevant domains.
Curriculum Requirements for MBA programs
The nature of the input to these programs and the objectives / orientation of Work
Integrated Learning Programs are different from those of the on-campus programs.
Students interested in these programs are seeking continuing higher management
education and focus in the chosen technical domain of study, which would enable their
career progression within their industry. It is also to be observed that learning and
coursework in these programs are integrated within a professional / technical
environment.
Based on these facts and observations the curriculum has been designed to be in strong
alignment with on-campus program at the core but with sufficient flexibility for
customization to meet specific requirements of a target student population.
Completion of the program would require:
(i) At least 13 courses (totaling at least 52 units) towards coursework, and
(ii) Project (12 units).
The Department concerned may identify 4 to 8 courses out of the coursework
requirement for each program as the Management Core requirement, and 4 to 6
courses of the coursework requirement for each program as the Domain Core
requirement. The core requirements are mandatory for all students in a given
program. However in certain highly specialized areas, some variation in the core
requirements may be permitted. Rest of the coursework must be completed through
elective courses.

requirement as follows:
i. Core: 8 courses / 30 units (max.)
ii. Specialization (if applicable):
a. 3 courses / 12 units (min.) to 6 courses / 30 units (max.)
b. Some Specialization courses may be mandatory and some may be
electives.
iii. Total of Core and Specialization courses may not exceed 10 courses (and
45 units).
iv. Rest of the coursework requirement may be obtained via general electives
within the discipline but not necessarily within the specialization.
th
v. At most 3 courses out of the total of 12 taken by a student may be at the 4
