Kerala would soon have what is billed as a world class business school led by some of the best brains in management education in the country.
Christened Asian School of Business (ASB), the institution would begin functioning out of a fully air-conditioned building on the Technopark campus and move to an integrated campus spread over 15 acres adjacent to the Technopark by 2007.
The Board of Governors of the ASB would have such eminent personalities as Dr. S. Ramadorai, CEO and managing director, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), S. Gopalakrishnan, co-founder, Dy. MD and CEO, Infosys Technologies, M. N. V. Nair, founder-dean of the IIM, Bangalore, Prakash G. Apte, director, IIM, Bangalore, Arun M. Kumar, partner with KPMG, U.S., Samuel Paul, former director, IIM, Ahamedabad, Raj Nair, chairman, Avalon Consulting, M. R. Rao, dean, ISB, Hyderabad, and G. Vijayaraghavan, founder-CEO, Technopark, among others.
According to Prof. Nair and Mr. Vijayaraghavan, the immediate goal of the new institution would be to create a business school that is a cut above the best IIM and later to pitch for the Asian market for management education. The school would have a six-month internship for each student and ensure that all students secure placements.
The ASB would begin functioning from the 2005-`06 academic year with a full-time Post-Graduate Programme in Management (PGPM), a part-time PGPM programme for working professionals and a PGPM for entrepreneur managers. Each student would have a laptop and frequent interaction with the best management teachers and professionals, Mr. Vijayaraghavan said.
