ABSTRACT
Management Education has been designed to impart quality knowledge, professional
competence and aptitude. With this purpose in mind University of Pune designed the
Management courses. Students’ profile IIM Ahmadabad (85%students) and The Icfai University
review state that in our country 50% students come from engineering background. Considering
this review, to know the awareness of selected management courses run by University of Pune
amongst the final year engineering student title for the research paper is selected. The research is
based on 369 respondents of final year engineering in Pune city. After analyzing the data it is
observed that University of Pune has a wide scope to run the management courses as compare to
foreign, collaborated and autonomous universities. There is better career growth for engineers
after the management courses. Peer decision does not influence the decision of selection of
Management course.

purpose. Its efforts have always been to ensure continuous innovations and development to
sustain the high momentum already generated by the past productive work done in the area of
higher education. 3
In India the process starts with a candidates applying for the MBA Entrance Tests held either at
the National level or institute level which is notified well in advance. The candidates are required
to fill up the application form which primarily seeks data about the candidate in terms academics,
work experience, interests and pursuits, other achievements and domiciliary information, etc.
This initial data forms the basis for all subsequent interactions and more specifically the personal
interview. Candidates are advised to fill up the application forms carefully, and retain a copy of
the same for their future reference. A Career in management is a hot pursuit in today’s world. In
the changing economic scenario all over the globe- the pay and prestige has soared to

Following are the findings and observations of the study,
The sample consisted of 62 % male and 38 % female student of final year engineering.
Father’s occupation is one of most important factor for the student to select the option of their carrier. It is observed that out 369 respondent 58% students marked under the head of salaried. And 22% student marked Business as father’s occupation. Salary is the limited source of income, restricted the student choose the better option.

Conclusion on hypothesis
There is remarkable scope for MBA Course, especially due to reputation of the university.
1. 70% students are aware of Management courses. 67% students are interested to do the MBA course. This proves that the MBA is the most important sought for Engineering Graduates. There is better career growth after completing the Management course.
2. Among the branches of Engineering degree Student of Mechanical branch are
more interested towards the Management Courses. Null
hypothesis is rejected so the alternative hypothesis is accepted. There is an
association between the two alternatives .It is prove that students of Electrical
branch are interested towards the Management courses.
3. Parents Occupation & Income status are two most influencing factors to select
the Management Courses. The hypothesis is not proved. There is no any
association between the two attributes.

Suggestions and Recommendations from Eminent and Experts about
Management Education
Prof.(Dr.) R.K.Choudhary, Director, Business school APIIT SD India. –
‘Creating Global Manager, (Competition success review. Page 26 )
Management studies require multidisciplinary approach. Curriculum must meet the needs of the industry. Industry-academia collaboration needs to be strengthening to make curriculum relevant for the changing business scenario. Doing research on Indian approaches in management to evolve Indian Management theories & practices. This will equip students with necessary attributes and knowledge to take informed decisions to compete successfully in the knowledge based economy.
Indian entrepreneurial scenario lagged behind East Asia and the West. Every student wants to work in a multinational company instead of creating his/her own enterprises and growing them into globally successful companies.
M.P.Sinha, Executive Director, GHRDC – (MBA Curriculum Mindset And Strategies) (competition success review. page 6)
“MBA Curriculum Mindset And Strategy“Business school curriculum should be designed around management issues & problems not as disciplines or streams as it is today. Business schools must identify major problems confronting the contemporary management and design the courses around them .They should call for complete change in our mindset on the MBA Management curriculum perhaps we need to drop much of the existing courses offered in MBA Programme and redesign the curriculum around ‘subjects’ or issues.”
The future of management education in India is nearly interwoven with the challenges of Indian economy sustained growth enhanced competitiveness, building synergy and creating visionary organizations. To meet these challenges, Business schools must produce managers who are performers, not analysts. For all above, a change in the mindset is needed, where Business school thrive on partnership with industry and business faculty excel in managing learning process and learning organizations. Should this happen, Business schools will produce Managers, not just MBAs.

Social Sector: A New Chapter In Management Education-The role of B-schools has widened to include courses and curriculum, which directly attribute

Research Paper of Mrs. M.R.Bhosale “Awareness of Management courses run by Univ. Of Pune”
to social sectors for its effectiveness to promote overall growth of our society against changing demands and situation.
Corporate Social Responsibility has become a new chapter in B-school texts. With the concept of triple bottom line (people, planet, profit) gaining ground in the corporate sector, business schools are incorporating specialized courses no Corporate Social Responsibility as a part of their academic offering. The concept of triple bottom line means taking into account environmental and social performance in addition to financial performance.
Indian B-Schools have also started understanding this growing need of instilling the value of Corporate Social Responsibility in the students and have taken the necessary steps towards fulfilling them.
K.S.Srinivasa Rao., T.A.Pai Management Institute, Manipal
Is their a place for Indian B-schools in the Global Village? A Review – (page 23)
The present state of affairs of our management education demands immediate attention, if the drift and decay is to be avoided. The educational culture of 21st century warrants new reform packages and an altogether fresh approach in tune with global futuristic trends in management education. The fast expanding domains of knowledge, owing to increasing pace information explosion, necessitates radical changes involving newer option of academic renewal.
The need of the hour is for greater introspection on innovative methodologies of teaching and research in our institutes. The emphasis should be on improving the quality in all aspects – right from the intake of the students till the placed.

Suggestions and Recommendations
Counseling, career guidance center, Training and Development centers are helpful for the students to take the decision of their future.
The College and staff members may provide the information related to further studies, admission procedures and eligibility of the courses.
The Colleges and Institutions have to organize “Industry –Institution interaction programs” which will be helpful for students.
The college as well as faculty members have to motivate the student for research work.
IT sector might be attracting sector for the students, on the contrarily, Engineering students have wide scope in Manufacturing Industries. “Industrial visits, Guest lectures Presentations of Industrial eminent will prove effective.
