IMPACT OF COVD 19 on B-SCHOOL CURRICULUM
The Coronavirus pandemic has spawned a tsunami of innovative ideas for redesigning B- Schools PGDM curricula. The lessons learnt from the widespread disruption have spurred academicians to doff their hats and redesign syllabii of courses in Economies, Strategy, HR, Supply Chain Management etc. At JIMS, Kalkaji, New Delhi, apart from our pioneering efforts in embracing technology and successfully conducting online classes and examinations for our PGDM students, we have also tweaked our courses in real time to reflect the changing reality of the global pandemic. Our HR focused courses now include lessons learnt on how workplaces and their dynamics are continually evolving whilst the Economic course addresses the impact of crashing oil prices on the global economy. Other novel initiatives adopted by us to enrich the PGDM curriculum pertain to inclusion of predictive models in the financial markets and strategy courses as well as addition of new modules in courses of Disaster Management and Sustainability. It is well said of us that in keeping with our motto we strive to "evolve as the world revolvesDr ( Cdr) Satish Seth
