Information of the Program and its Execution

The Advanced Entry route program is a good alternative for those who are serious about advancing their careers in upper-level management, since it requires them to complete the Research Methods module and a Consultancy Project Report on a topic of their choosing.

Strategy for Research- Including the Proposal for Future Study.

The webinars on “Induction” and “Research Methods,” which come at the beginning of the program, provide you the opportunity to complete the proposal you’ve been working upon in your research.

The Consulting Report

The Consultancy Project Report gives students an opportunity to research a specific area of interest inside a company. The goal of this module is to improve students’ professional and intellectual growth by giving them opportunities to demonstrate persistent independent thought, learning, and critical reflection.
Through theoretical and conceptual research, this program addresses a problem with the company’s strategic planning. The final product of the student consultancy is a report.
Completing the Advanced Entry route program with the help of your assigned supervisor for the final Consultancy Project Report module should take between 6 and 9 months.
