Across the globe a degree in business management is highly coveted as it is perceived to open doors to opportunities and high-paid jobs and India is no exception. However, with the increased inclination towards gaining management degrees and a rapid increase in number of BSchools in the country a big question mark raises not only on the quality of management education and its relevance but also on the acumen of MBA aspirants and students pursuing MBA degrees.The top b-schools in India admit candidates through stringent selection criteria and then impart relevant and contemporary management education. On the other hand admissions in many other institutions are neither stringent nor rigorous and therefore the competency of pass-outs remains a question mark. Management education is facing multiple challenges in maintaining its relevance and keeping pace with changing demands of the industry. Although issues such as the quality of faculty and infrastructure concerns the entire academia but discussions must also take into consideration the quality of MBA aspirants, mushrooming B-schools and loop holes in regulation of professional education. The current paper aims at finding some of the important challenges andissues concerning management education in India in the changing times while discussing examples, lessons and insights from the state of Madhya Pradesh. The scope of the paper covers years from 2008 to 2012.The paper also discusses ‗Sallis‘ quality imperative model in educational establishments in Indian context.

The Impact

The article reviews the impact of globalization on the quality of contemporary business education in India. When the Indian government liberalized the business education market in the 1990s, it was assumed that creation of business schools would automatically lead to employment-ready individuals, especially in managerial roles. On the contrary, certain trends suggest that business schools have been producing suboptimally skilled individuals for the industry, leading to an incessantly widening skill–employability gap. The article discusses the plausible reasons for this gap. The article also argues for integrating emotional intelligence (EI) as a key behavioural skill in management education framework.

The Cost

There is no clear direction in the Constitution of India about how much of the cost of higher and professional education of a student the central government or the concerned state government would bear. There are no guidelines regarding how to improve the global rank of India’s professional education (e.g., management education), when judged by the parameters of relevance, standard, infrastructure, technology and innovation, and above all, the cost per student. In an emerging economy like India slogging to get rid of the age old problems of poverty, unemployment, rural underdevelopment and illiteracy, post graduate management education is a luxury commodity for a sizeable chunk of the population. In this context, this chapter covers how the post graduate management education system consisting of public as well as private universities and institutions are performing, being assisted financially and coming up with, inter alia, infrastructure, technology and innovation with comparison from a number of countries over the globe across the East as also the West.

Purpose – The purpose and value of management education was always under the critics’ scanner but the proliferation of institutes impelled a serious debate on its quality. The purpose of this paper is to identify the factors affecting quality of management education in India and explains their nature, significance and mutual influences using interpretive structural modelling (ISM). Design/methodology/approach – The factors were listed through literature review. They were then validated by empirical research conducted through questionnaires administered electronically and personally to 220 master of business administration students and alumni. On 13 such factors finalised, a qualitative and interpretive tool, ISM was applied. Findings – Leadership emerged as the most important factor followed by organisational structure and practices. Interrelations otherwise not easily observable established their prominence. An important fact that evolved is that almost all the factors have strong interdependence and have to be seen in coherence when analysing their impact on students. Originality/value – The literature until now has been highlighting the factors and their association with management education largely in isolation. This paper contributes to the existing literature by proposing a framework of the interrelationships of the factors which have a role in improving the quality of management education.

As a result of the analysis of scientifc literature, the author comes to the conclusion that there are four relevant aspects of indicators of the quality of professional education. The frst is their focus on educational results that are of priority importance in the employment of graduates. The second is characterized by the following specifcs: inclusion in the content of indicators of labor market requirements. The third aspect is characterized by the fact that in the process of developing indicators of the quality of professional education, it is necessary to take into account the specifcs of specifc professional activities, in particular, future workers in the oil and gas industry. The fourth aspect is the need for indicators to meet the requirements of regulatory documents regulating both educational and future professional activities of graduates: educational and professional standards. In this regard, the priorities of the educational organization that meet the requirements of educational or professional standards are determined. The main indicator of the quality of secondary vocational education is presented by the author in the indicators of achievement of competencies corresponding to the labor functions of the professional standard. The competence of the future oil and gas industry worker is characterized, in turn, as external and internal readiness to perform labor actions and operations. Methods for developing quality indicators are proposed: the frst combines the requirements of educational and professional standards, the second is based on the requirements of the professional standard.

Management education in India gained demand with the opening of the economy in 1991. Many institutes and colleges have come up since then to offer Post Graduate courses like Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) to the students. There is a widely prevalent perception among all stake holders that the quality of management education has been suffering, with only about 10% of the B-School graduates employable, which in turn has been attributed to the lack of employability skills among the B- school graduates. The study identified the key dimensions of employability skills perceived to be beneficial through a survey of alumni from the Kerala based management institutes. The set of higher education skills expected of management graduates, as per the Framework for Higher Education Qualification (FHEQ) in UK was combined with employability skills propounded by other researchers and assessed with 28 qualification descriptors under six dimensions for employability skills.

In the present economy, both at national and international front service sector, is playing a pivotal role as a major contributor towards the GDP. The importance of service sector necessitates the efficiency measurement of various service units. The opening of Indian economy (Liberalisation – Privitisation – Globalisation) has affected every segment of Indian industry and service sector, education being no exception. Today, management education is one of the most sought after higher education options for Indian students. Management education in India has also undergone many changes in the last decade or so, meeting the need of industries. Meeting this growing demand has lead to proliferation of management institutions, and in many a cases the quality of education is compromised. Some popular Indian magazines and journals started ranking the Indian B-Schools intending to give information to all the stake holders involved. All these methods either use weighted average or clustering method to rank the institutes. This chapter proposes an alternative method based on efficiency analysis using Data Envelopment Analysis to rank the Indian B-Schools. The B-schools are observed over multiple periods of time, and the variations of efficiency are used to draw a conclusion about the performance of B-schools. Window analysis is used to compare the performance of B-schools over the period of time.
