Business Management Case Studies: A Vital Pedagogical Tool

Business management case studies are powerful teaching tools that illustrate various management challenges and concepts. They can be based on real companies created by academic institutions or professional organizations. They encompass diverse topics like management, finance, marketing, international business, data analytics, economics, and operations management. Case studies engage students in higher-order thinking, such as applying, analyzing, and evaluating, thus enhancing critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. By focusing on specific learning outcomes, case studies support OBE by promoting strategic thinking and practical application of concepts. Collaborative analysis across disciplines encourages holistic learning.

Benefits of Case Studies in Management Education

  • Skill Development: Case studies enhance essential business management skills, including leadership, strategic planning, critical thinking, and effective communication. Students develop competencies such as problem analysis, diagnosis, recommendation, implementation, and communication by analyzing these cases.
  • Practical Understanding: They allow students to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world situations, fostering practical understanding and building confidence in decision-making.

GL Bajaj’s Achievement in Case Study Integration in Teaching Pedagogy

The GLBIMR Faculty Team conducted area-wise brainstorming sessions to meticulously select 124 case studies from the Case Centre and global publications. These cases have been compiled into an e-book in collaboration with McGraw Hill. The fully-copy licensed access is provided to both faculty and students. This initiative strengthens our PGDM curriculum, aligning with OBE goals and fostering deeper student engagement and learning outcomes.

Shodhganga: a reservoir of Indian Theses

The Shodhganga@INFLIBNET Centre provides a platform for research students to deposit their Ph.D. theses and make it available to the entire scholarly community in open access. The repository has the ability to capture, index, store, disseminate and preserve ETDs submitted by the researchers.

Theses and dissertations are known to be the rich and unique source of information, often the only source of research work that does not find its way into various publication channels. Theses and dissertations remain an un-tapped and under-utilized asset, leading to unnecessary duplication and repetition that, in effect, is the anti-theses of research and wastage of huge resources, both human and financial.

The UGC Notification dated 5th May 2016 mandates submission of electronic version of theses and dissertations by the researchers in universities with an aim to facilitate open access to Indian theses and dissertations to the academic community world-wide. Online availability of electronic theses through centrally-maintained digital repositories, not only ensure easy access and archiving of Indian doctoral theses but will also help in raising the standard and quality of research. This would overcome serious problem of duplication of research and poor quality resulting from the "poor visibility" and the "unseen" factor in research output. As per the Regulation, the responsibility of hosting, maintaining and making the digital repository of Indian Electronic Theses and Dissertation (called "Shodhganga"), accessible to all institutions and universities, is assigned to the INFLIBNET Centre.

The Shodhganga@INFLIBNET is set up using an open-source digital repository software called DSpace developed by MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) in partnership with Hewlett- Packard (HP).
