Blog boom in B-school – www.tenaday.in

October 13, 2008

For more information and FREE online practice tests visit www.tenaday.in

The B-school brigade has taken to blogs to voice their opinion and reach out to others.

Students and teachers in the city institutes now prefer to post their thoughts online to bringing out wall magazines. Even administrators are using the tech tool to add to the information on the official website.

While blogs like that of Globsyn Business School are maintained by the institutes themselves, most are unofficial platforms for students, whose links are provided on the main website.

“Blogs are an informal and more democratic way of getting feedback from students about the institute, method of teaching and the faculty,” said Sudipa Banerjee, a senior lecturer at the Indian Institute of Social Welfare and Business Management (IISWBM), the oldest B-school in the country.

One can access the IISWBM blog, which is “unofficial”, from the official website. The posts provide the latest campus news — from the launch of an alumni website to reports on the institute in the media. The NSHM blog also provides information on the launch of courses or departments.

Students can be candid in their posts because they don’t need to reveal their identity.

“Blogs have become an important tool in the corporate world. Even CEOs of companies write blogs. It can be a two-way communication tool between the students and authorities,” said Banerjee.

“MBA aspirants can go through a B-school’s blog to get a feel of the institute. The official website generally does not provide such information,” she added.

Recruiters, too, go through institute blogs to decide whether to recruit from the campus or not.

The Globsyn Business School blog, maintained by the institute, has an “ask BDG” section where students can pose question to director Bikram Dasgupta.

The blog, with posts from experts in various fields, promotes collaborative learning. There are sections for different specialisations, where professors and experts upload posts on development in their respective fields. For example, a recent post on the finance blog by professors and the institute’s knowledge team explains the US financial crisis.

“It is not easy for us to read books about all the different functions for basic knowledge, so we log on to domain blogs for information,” said Sayantani Mitra, a second-year human resource management student at the B-school.

She and her classmates also write on projects and industry visits.

“The idea is to give students a holistic idea about management. Students can prepare for the day’s classes by going through the blogs,” said Romit Dasgupta, the director of technology of Globsyn Technologies.

(Media-Newswire.com) – WASHINGTON – Karan Rajput from India has never been to New York City. This October, Rajput, a first-year M.B.A. student at The George Washington University School of Business in Washington, D.C., will join 40 of his peers to taste the Big Apple’s corporate culture. These 40 M.B.A. students are seeking opportunities in marketing, human resources, non-profit management, corporate finance, investment management, and financial services.

Today’s market demands creative, strategic career planning for M.B.A. students who want to stand out in the job market.  GW School of Business Dean Susan M. Phillips said, “Our students realize that in today’s cost-conscious environment, companies are cutting back on on-campus recruiting, and an alternative way to pursue these companies is to go to their offices.”  The School of Business’ M.B.A. career trek brings prospective employees to the recruiters.  “The students’ ambitious and entrepreneurial spirit will bring them to the forefront of the corporate world,” added Dr. Phillips.

Eran Goudes, a second-year M.B.A. student and coordinator of the third-annual GW School of Business M.B.A. New York Career Trek, said, “I can’t just sit here and wait for companies to come to me.  If I want a job in this market, and the ability to pay off my student loans, I need to take the extra initiative and do the leg-work.”

The diverse group of students will attend corporate presentations and private alumni dinners in New York from Oct. 22 – 24. Organizations opening their doors to the GW School of Business M.B.A. talent include banks, investment firms, non-profit organizations, and media companies, including Jefferies, the New York Times, Time Inc., SIRIUS XM Radio, Bank of New York Mellon, Nonprofit Finance Fund, and Teach For America.  The finance students also will experience the New York Stock Exchange’s floor.

Gilbert Yancey, executive director of the school’s F. David Fowler Career Center, said, “These treks, typically held twice a year in New York and San Francisco, have provided a great opportunity for our students to showcase their talents and career-management competencies while increasing our M.B.A. program’s visibility on both U.S. coasts.”  He added, “The impressions students made at these organizations have actually led to employment opportunities.”

The career trek also is an opportunity to connect with alumni.  Karen Ancillai, director of development at the GW School of Business’ Office of Development and Alumni Relations, said, “Building a lifelong and worldwide community of alumni is a top priority for the School of Business.  We call upon alumni to get involved with the M.B.A. Trek to model their success and become mentors to the next generation of business leaders.”  Most of the corporate visits have been coordinated through alumni who work in these organizations.

GW’s School of Business prepares students for professional management careers. The school is a recognized education leader, the result of a strategy to improve its high academic standards while providing practical experiences that leverage the unique advantages of its Washington location. The depth and variety of its academic and professional offerings provide rich opportunities for students in the school’s undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs.
