The corporate world is going through a turbulent phase as the economy is not stable. Recession is hitting almost all the sectors, which include retail and IT-enabled services, FMCG, finance, banking, etc. So, instead of fresher candidates, there is an urgent requirement for qualified and trained management professionals to meet the HR requirements of corporates and industries.

Considering the demands from the corporate world, universities and B-Schools are going for time-tested and market-based curricula. They have integrated various components in postgraduate management education programs which ensure practical learning of various management concepts, thereby offering total quality education to students. In an effort to realize that management is more about practical knowledge, B-Schools have added valuable inputs in curriculum, like operational projects, live projects, short selling assignments, industrial tours, industrial projects, summer internship programs, management research theses, placement preparation modules, soft skills modules, etc. Out of these inputs, one of the most important components is the management thesis.

Management thesis is an integral part of the MBA program. The main aim of a management thesis is to teach the student ways of solving business problems and taking strategic business decisions by focusing on Research Methodology. It helps student to learn formulation, designing and implementing a research strategy in respect to actual business scenario. Management thesis provides the platform to students to learn practical implementation of concepts learned by them.

It provides various learning opportunities to them as they have to gather information, primary as well as secondary data about subject or topic they are focusing on.

It helps in enhancement of communication and interpersonal skills as in order to collect the data they need to interact with various people, take interviews of various business dignitaries. These kinds of interaction help in boosting their morale and confidence.
