In our
rapidly changing socio-economic environment there is a growing demand for
trained personnel in the management of a business and other managerial fields.
Conceptually equipped, trained managers are increasingly in demand. The
concerted national and international thrusts towards demand-driven economic
activities generate pressure for developing relevant human resources for the
conduct complex business management in local/foreign trade and commerce.
However, due to a lack of adequate institutional arrangements and economic
hardships, a large number of persons, particularly in the outlying districts
continue to miss opportunities for gaining an education in management,
especially at the degree level. There is also the need to cater to those in
employments and to those who wish to further their education in management
studies. The primary purpose of introducing the DIM/BMS degree programme is
to meet these felt needs of the country. Upgrading knowledge and skills in
management is likely to improve the efficiency of performance of businesses
and other organizations thus contributing to higher national
productivity. |
