The program curriculum covers all the important domains of management in year one. At the end of the first year the participants will be equipped with a sound understanding of all functional areas of management like Marketing, Economics, Finance, Human Resource, Information Systems, Production and Operations, Strategy, and Entrepreneurship. Participants will also learn various tools and techniques for understanding the use of data in making business decisions.
The second year is built on the foundation of year one core courses, where participants are given the option of choosing from a bouquet of elective courses offered across different management specializations. Along with the elective courses, the program mandates one core course per term in the second year. The core courses in the second year are intended to help participants integrate their learnings from all functional areas of management into planning and executing a business problem. Though a General Management program, the highlight of the EMBA offered by IIM Visakhapatnam is the application-oriented design of the curriculum with a good blend of fundamental management knowledge with integrative learning across domains.
