Teaching Philosophy
Unitedworld is built by intellect and driven by innovations.
Unitedworld global team has jointly designed the academic throughput of this platform. The aim is to nurture Indian talent to manage the dynamic SE Asian open economies.
It starts with a selection matrix by measuring student's present market readiness, designing an individual development growth path, Injecting special treatment modules to take the candidate to a higher platform. With these non academic modules, candidates learn to carry the right attitude, remain informed, maintain a learning habit and most importantly identify their shortcomings.
With a valuable network of talented Indian executive spread across the globe, clubbed with competent Indian academic pool, visiting faculties from Ivy League B-schools, and Brand linkages, Unitedworld has become one of the top Indian platforms to learn the global economic order.
Market interface
Unlike many other B-Schools that try to imitate the concept of 'Corporate Interface', Unitedworld team feels that 'Market Interface' is more critical for real-life learning. Unless students know the rules of practical market, corporate interface can never make a student career-ready. Student groups are sent to wholesale market, logistics centers, stock markets, SSI units to realize the tricks of the game. There are multiple branded projects that each student needs to complete every semester.
At the same time, CEO Interactive events let them learn the game plan of large organizations. They understand how long term goals help senior executives take decisions.
Academic rigor
Students are put into performance with multiple projects, assignments, surprise quiz, presentations, group activities and tests. All resources are also made available online. Faculties facilitate and coordinate, but students have to absorb pressure and learn how to deliver in real time. Students have to figure out how to simultaneously survive and perform in this environment.
Resource optimization
Unitedworld has created one of the best academic resources for its students. Students can access a world of research archives under their mentor's supervision. This adds unparalleled value to the academic throughput of Unitedworld. Some of the resources are:
- Global best practice archive
- Domain intelligence assets
- Knowledge support from 'Centers of excellence'
- Content developed by 'Live content engine'
- Sponsored & In-house research archives
Outlook development
One needs to understand the perspective of each character to appreciate a good film. Likewise, students need to develop a holistic idea about the economic movement and changing power equations in the world.
Sub-prime crisis in US slows the global economy which is restricting banks to lend money at low interest rate. Slow consumer financing reduces consumer demand. Low sales growth leads to limited profitability and MNCs cut down their IT Budget that actually fuels the growth of Indian software firms. IT companies are going slowly for recruitment, leaving behind millions of jobless technology graduates. In return, companies engaged into IT training are into business again. They are enrolling more and more engineers into training classes.
Such a bird's eye view over issues leads to great business decisions.
Unitedworld offers several co-curricular projects over social subjects that build similar perspective among students. Arranging events like 'Distinctive personality lecture series', where successful people from different fields share their story of growth, quintessentially develops a canvas in each student.
Growth of business logic
During 2007, US $ 1.28 Billion was invested in Indian food processing industry, which is 3% of total US $ 15.7 Billion FDI in India. India is the 5th largest economy (PPP Basis) of the world and growing at 8.5% annually with 1.2 Billion populations. Wheat production in India & France per hector is 2.6 Kg and 6.7 respectively. Grocery represents 62% of total retail industry but it is only 10.5% of organized retail. Par capita food grain availability has dropped by 15% in India over last 15 years to 440- grams/ day.
Apparently unrelated data mentioned above can lead to a decision if arranged logically. If production technology from France is imported, agriculture based food processing has huge growth scope through organized retail in India. It can get has capital support through FDI. Govt. is also expected to support the industry with tax rebate because it will improve the food grain availability. Thus government may improve bilateral relationship with France, industry forums like CII can create technology share platforms, while research institutions can focus on knowledge sharing.
Similar simple logic sometimes create the most important growth vertical.
Unitedworld organizes 'CEO Lecture Series' where CEO's of successful organizations share their decision making moments. Unitedworld also helps students to grow logical thought processes through blending market data with management fundamentals.
