BBA – EDP

Established in 2001 under the aegis of Swarna Educational Academy,
Dr. Narayana Group of Management Institutions (Dr NGMI) has grown into a institution by itself in the field of management education. 

BBA – EDP

BBA – EDP is a three-year graduate programme to help the students master in business administration and entrepreneurship development.

Home:

The Bachelor of Business Administration – Entrepreneurship Development Programme (BBA – EDP) is a graduate programme in Commerce and Business Administration, and Entrepreneurship Development. While BBA programme covers general business courses as well as advanced courses for specification, EDP focusses on developing entrepreneurial abilities among the students.

BBA is a bachelor’s programme designed to nurture management professionals from the graduation level. It provides a solid base for the management of human resources, marketing, finance and production. In view of the fact that the two-year MBA after graduation is not sufficient to have a firm understanding of all the aspects of business administration, BBA is said to provide a firm foundation to emerge as management professionals.

The course is also in alignment with the ‘Make in India’ initiative launched by the Government of India, as more production needs to happen to propel the country’s growth. As plenty of managers are required in the areas of materials management, receivables management, production management, marketing management, financial management and human resources management, BBA continues to maintain its relevance. The highlights of the programme include:

The BBA degree is designed to give broad-based knowledge of the functional aspects of a business enterprise and its interconnection, while ensuring space for specialisation in a particular area.

The programme exposes the students to a variety of core subjects, and encourages them to specialise in particular academic areas. It also develops the student’s practical, managerial and communication skills, and business decision-making capabilities.

Through lectures by entrepreneurship experts, organised visits to high-tech start-up companies and case studies of successful entrepreneurs, the students are exposed to the content, context, and contacts that would enable them to design and launch new ventures based on innovative technologies.

The course not only transforms the students into courageous entrepreneurs to serve the emerging needs of society but also produce graduates with competencies to secure a place in IIMS and other premier business schools to become top managers. It shapes graduates to become competent, committed human resources to undertake the constructive tasks of the competitive corporate world.

The programme helps the students understand how the process of starting new ventures could vary geographically and culturally, leverage new science and technologies from corporate enterprises, develop winning business plans, and scale up startups to be globally successful.

The combination of BBA and EDP shows equal emphasis on discovering the potential for entrepreneurial initiatives in the students. It stresses the need for inculcation, development, and polishing of entrepreneurial skills needed to establish and successfully run own enterprise. Specially designed team projects give the students hands-on training and practical experience in developing a business plan. The concepts, tools, and frameworks covered in the programme enable the students to create, identify and evaluate new venture opportunities.

As the art and science of management is essential for human life and its growth, a degree in management is always in high demand. While BBA provides a solid base for the management of human resources, marketing, finance and production, EDP aims to help entrepreneurs learn how to develop ideas into successful businesses, and to increase entrepreneurial opportunities. The combination of BBA and EDP therefore shows equal emphasis on discovering the potential for entrepreneurial initiatives in the students. The concepts, tools, and frameworks covered in the programme enable the students to create, identify and evaluate new venture opportunities, interpret customer needs and quantify the value proposition.

Bachelor of Commerce – Computers (B Com – Computers) (Affiliated to Osmania University)

8 Ms (Eight key areas of management)

Introduction:

BBA is an undergraduate course, which focusses on nurturing managerial abilities in the students to promote complete understanding of various functional areas of a business organisation such as purchases department, production department, human resource department, marketing department, and finance department. As it is necessary for the students of management studies to understand all the functional areas of a business organisation, Dr NGMI provides opportunities of learning through one full day visit to an industry every month to have real time learning within the framework of 8 Ms.

Materials Management:

This is the basic area of management requiring continuous monitoring of purchases and production processes, which will ensure minimising the overall cost of production. The student is given an opportunity to know the maintenance of stores ledgers, physical inspection of the stock level, and the practices followed in the materials management.

Machines Management:

Since the students have a background of management studies, they have an opportunity to know the functioning and maintenance of machines set up in an industry. The students understand the process involved in acquiring various machines, from where they are acquired, and the cost involved in their purchase and transport. The students have also the benefit of understanding technical functionalities of the whole machinery.

Money Management:

The backbone of any business enterprise is the financial management. Given the fact that the students make one full day industrial visits every month, they are able to learn the dynamics of the fixed capital as well as the working capital. In spite of being undergraduate   students, they are given opportunities to learn the details of finance such as calculation of the project cost, raising of the required investment, and understanding of the return on investments (RoI) of various business enterprises.

Men (Human Resources) Management:

Human resources are another backbone of a successful organisation. During the industrial training visits, the students learn and understand the management of the dynamics of human resources in an organisation. They are also exposed to understand the payrolls, perks, work culture, and other amenities provided to the employees to work towards the growth and success of an organisation.

Marketing Management:

Marketing management is of paramount importance to any business organisation. Many people do not understand the dynamics of marketing, which is actually required to excel in business management. The students are given opportunities to know marketing strategies of various business enterprises, as they interact with the managers of the marketing departments during the industrial visits. The students also learn the marketing dynamics and techniques to excel in business management.

Methodology Management:

Different organisations follow their own methods and practices at their work place for effective execution of work, which can be understood only by observing them in person. In fact the students are privileged to observe the methods and practices during their industrial visits such as the Japanese 5S Technique, which is practised in many world class organisations. The students have an edge over their counterparts elsewhere in understanding of this practice – optimal use of time, energy and resources resulting in maximisation of output.

Motivation Management:

People inherently look for motivation to perform better at work. A rightly motivated human resource / person / employee contributes maximum at his or her work. During their visits, the students will have real time understanding of the role that motivation plays in the workforce by interacting with them – a firsthand learning experience.

Management Matrix:

Today the running of an organisation, its development, scalability and other     administrative aspects depend on management. It is the art of management that provides a lifeline to keep the organisation not only successfully functioning but also profitable and growth-oriented. The students need to understand the basics of management theoretically and practically, which is the most desired element in their BBA – EDP education. The students are guided to focus initially on observation of management styles and practices of various business organisations during their industrial visits, which will definitely empower them to emerge as global management professionals.

Entrepreneurship Development Programme (EDP)

EDP is an emerging area of study and research where new perspectives keep evolving to understand more about entrepreneurship and its impact on business across the world. Today’s trend among the youngsters is to set up their own business enterprises. In fact this is a happening time in the area of entrepreneurship development in India where the government also encourages this spirit among the youth to create a large number of employment opportunities for its growing population.

It is against this background Dr NGMI has taken the lead in providing opportunities to the students in different disciplines of entrepreneurship. Under EDP, the following specialisations are offered along with their three years of BBA Course.

Teaching and Learning Process (TLP)

Dr Narayana College of Commerce and Science is a student-centered institution. Yet the progress in the learning process of the students depends on their efforts. The college has developed a refined way teaching – a perfectly balanced combination of theoretical sessions and practical exposure through industrial visits. In addition, the college also provides individual attention to every student along with tutoring support if needed.

Technological competencies of the faculty and the students cannot be developed without considering an array of factors that could impact the Teaching and Learning Processes (TLP) both inside and outside of the college. In addition to the class room sessions, the college takes the students for field visits, implant studies, and internships both in India and abroad. The members of the faculty continuously evaluate the learning curve of the students through activity-based assignments, mini-projects relating to different business models and JAM (Just a Minute) in every teaching session for five minutes.

Apart from the academic sessions, the college facilitates quiz competitions, tests on completion of each unit, role plays, syndicate group exercises, communication skills, personality tests, and quarterly, half-yearly and pre-final examinations to prepare the students for the final examinations.

During the three-year programme of BBA-EDP, there is a continuous evaluation of the student’s performance by way of regular assessments, tests, quiz competitions, debates, group discussions, role plays, and personality development tests (psychometric tests). The results are regularly intimated to the parents as well.

Training:

Academic performance alone is not sufficient to turn the students of today into successful entrepreneurs of tomorrow. Since there is a wide gap between what the industry expects in terms of employability, and what the education system manages to provide, Dr Narayana College of Commerce and Business Management places importance on providing suitable training to the students in various areas such as personality development, entrepreneurial skills development, communication skills development, interpersonal skills development, analytical skills development, lateral thinking development, self-management skills development, leadership and behavioural skills development, and time management skills development.

Towards this end, the college regularly conducts training programmes. Professionals from respective areas are invited to conduct the programmes. In fact the college has on its panel eminent trainers like Yandamoori Virendranath – a well-known personality development trainer, and Pattabhi Sitaram – an eminent trainer on memory power and concentration, and behavioural skills. The training has succeeded in orienting the students to have realistic goals in their lives and a strategy to realise them.

Placement:

Dr Narayana College of Commerce and Science has a special placement cell to ensure that the students are employable in every sense through its continuous Learning and Development (L&D) activities such as JAM (Just a Minute) sessions, group discussions, elocutions, debates, mock interviews, spoken English lab, communications lab, voice and accent modulation sessions, phonetic sessions, and mother tongue intonation (MTI) improvement.

The college has already succeeded in getting most of the students placed in various companies such as Dell, Cognizant, Franklin Templeton, Wells Fargo, Deloitte and other MNCs in ITES and financial institutions. In fact some of them have already started moving up in their career to hold supervisory positions. This goes to prove the strengths that the college continues to hold in providing quality education.
