Before first semester, a one-month bridge course is given along with intensive foundation courses in basic mathematics, communication, functional English, accountancy, computer skills, and behavioral science.
All first year courses are compulsory. After second semester students are required to intern in a business for eight weeks and give a written and oral report on the experience.
The second year includes six core courses, and four electives in the student's two areas of specialization, over the two semesters, Thirty-seven electives are offered in the fields of Finance, Systems, Marketing, and Human Resource Management. A paper must be submitted on one of the student's two areas of specialization.
In line with the Jesuit aim of forming men and women for others,[1] students are required to live in a village for a week and to suggest approaches that might be taken toward the resolution of problems faced by the villagers.[2]
JIM offers intensive, three-day workshops in the areas of personal growth, building self esteem, value formation, and interpersonal effectiveness. This includes training in neuro-linguistic programming, rational emotive therapy, managing emotions, time management, and stress management. Opportunities are also given to develop skills in public speaking, presentation skills, body language, and preparation of reports.
Management Development Program
This is offered as an opportunity for business people to update their knowledge of the field.
International Collaboration Programme
A group of students from Germany come to JIM every year to engage in mutual learning. They share and learn on cross-cultural issues and on perspectives on globalization. In February 2014 fifteen German students attended a seminar on globalisation and its impact, and on the status of women in India.
