Encounter with MBA Graduates at Saurashtra University (Feb 2009)

Few days back, I have been invited by Saurashtra Uni - MBA dept to talk on few latest development in Economy and Financial Service Industry. My purpose was simple, to take few students as Management Trainee in my present Organization.
Though I was pretty much impressed with the latest developments in education sector of Saurashtra, my encounter with MBA students was eyeopener
During my presentation I found few students playing games on Mobile. When I spotted one, others said that its Ok if someone check his mobile during lectures in classroom.

This experience is nothing but reflecting casual attitude of institution while dealing with students. I must say that every action has equal and opposite reaction. Its always top to bottom approach while treating behavior. Improvement never starts from bottom, its always from top.

Every year in Gujarat, 18000 candidates appears in GCET (Common Entrance Test for MBA colleges in Gujarat). The total number of seats are approx 4500. Hence Demand is four times higher than current seats available. There is ample scope to make money if you have MBA school in Gujarat. But Apart from money making objective, one must understand the fact that education sector is one of the prominent sector which creates a resources who can fuel the growth of the economy. One must understand the fact that "Your True worth is determined by how much more you give in exchange of the payment you receive"

Today most of the MBA colleges focuses more on Course Curriculum and not on behavioral training. The corporate interaction is at the lowest level in Saurashtra. They do interact with only those who are in the Good List of the Owners of MBA college. The meaning of MBA is downgraded to a Graduate Student.
