TERI University has been set up as an institution of higher learning to meet the needs of a rapidly growing economy. One of the key focus areas of the University is to promote sustainability in Indian business. The MBA programme at TERI University helps fulfill this objective by training students to take on leadership, consulting, and managerial roles in industry. Today’s regulated enterprises require specialist knowledge of the unique business ecosystem and, thus, the need for a specialist management education has been felt by the policy-makers as well as by the industry. The support extended by the Government of India and a cross section of organizations like NTPC, UNEP, USAID, Ford Foundation, NHPC, and SAIL provide a testimony to this reality. The management graduates from TERI University have received excellent response from business areas as diverse as consulting and research, finance/investment banking, utilities, energy/power, infrastructure development, oil and gas, and so on. By virtue of their intensive training, I see management graduates from TERI University bringing about positive transformation in the sectors in which they choose to pursue their career.
RK PachauriChancellor, TERI University
TERI University aims to create a workforce that is empowered to better align sustainability considerations in the pursuit of economic growth and human well-being. For doing so, we ensure that the enormous learning we have from TERI on the diverse, yet inter-related, aspects of Sustainable Development, enhanced with the research and knowledge of our own faculty members, is used to create cutting-edge, inter-disciplinary curricula. This curriculum also benefits from a continuous feedback from academic peers at the national and global levels, from the employers of our students and from the students themselves—resulting in refined content and pedagogy on an annual basis. The active engagement of international faculty members and guest lecturers, along with the presence of international students on campus, ensures that a student of TERI University not only qualifies as a “sustainability professional” but is also comfortable in a multicultural setting. With a set of identifiable areas of domain expertise, these students have the unique advantage of appreciating the roles and contributions of different disciplines in finding solutions for complex real-life challenges. Engagement with research projects, industry exposure and field visits—including, in some cases, international exchanges—all contribute to the making of these well-rounded individuals who are seeking to engage usefully with global development processes. We are sure that you will appreciate the value that TERI University students bring to the workforce and will, while deploying them productively in your organization, encourage them to hone their skills further for the greater good. We would, of course, at all times value any feedback that you would like to offer us.
Leena SrivastavaVice-Chancellor, TERI University
From the Desk of Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor
TERI University at a Glance TERI University was established to disseminate the vast reservoir of knowledge created by TERI. The depth and breadth of TERI University’s academic offering is rooted in the comprehensive research, consultancy, and outreach activities of TERI, a not for-profit, independent research institute recognized globally for its contribution to scientific and policy research in the realms of energy, environment, and sustainable development. TERI’s legacy has being a key influence as well as an inspiration in the evolution of the University’s academic units.
The University aspires to be an institution of higher learning which meets the need of a rapidly growing India. The academic programmes are envisioned to provide the students with a holistic perspective of the subjects at hand and have a wide approach to encourage interdisciplinary learning. This vision was further strengthened in 1999, when the University was granted the “Deemed to be University” status by the University Grants Commission and notified by the Ministry of Human Resources Development, Department of Education, Government of India, notification no. F.9/19/95-U-3, dated 5 October 1999.Since its inception, the University has offered not just world-class education, but also an environment that enables its students to develop fresh perspectives in their subject areas. Before moving to Vasant Kunj, the University was housed in the Darbari Seth Block of India Habitat Centre from 1998 to 2008. In 2008, TERI University started functioning from its new ‘green campus’, located in Vasant Kunj. It, however, continues to share the rich and diverse resources of TERI in terms of knowledge and expertise.
AdministrationDr RK Pachauri the Director-General of TERI is the Chancellor of the University. Dr Leena Srivastava serves as the Vice-Chancellor, and Dr Rajiv Seth is the Registrar of the University. The University’s Board of Management is responsible for its overall administration and control with the Chancellor being the Chairman of the Board. All the aspects of academic policy are under the purview of the Academic Council, chaired by the Vice-Chancellor who approves the curricula, courses, and examination results. Furthermore, the academic council appoints committees to look into specific academic matters arising from time to time.
StructureThe University has evolved as an organizational structure drawing on the research activities of TERI. Besides the core teaching staff of the University, staff of TERI with PhDs, and rich research experience of working on projects in various areas function as adjunct faculty.

Academic Programmes
The academic programmes at TERI University are focused around the challenges of providing for a rising global population with a limited and degraded natural resource base. In moving towards sustainability, the implicit understanding is that there is no panacea, or straight road with recognized and established methodologies, tools or specializations leading to such development. The solutions, therefore, do not lie in a specific subject discipline, but must be appropriate and relevant to the context or the practical problem being addressed.
Developing such an understanding among our students is best achieved through exposure to a variety of subjects, tools, and methodologies in the interdisciplinary mode. This has been the guiding philosophy of the TERI University’s programmes and is practiced by building a theoretical understanding in courses covering a variety of traditional disciplines such as ecology, the natural and social sciences, governance, policy, law, and engineering. Over a period of two years, students converge upon a few areas of focus based upon their interest, having been exposed to a new way of thinking that looks at problems not from the lens of a subject specialist, but from the perspective of one who recognizes the complex linkages between man and his environment.
The University uses modern pedagogical tools, richly supplemented by field visits, live industry projects, and hands-on applications. The University provides the very best in equipment and instruments, which includes state-of-the art computer hardware and software, well-equipped laboratories, video-conferencing facilities, and access to South Asia’s most comprehensive library on energy and environment. TERI University was, recently, awarded the India Today award for the most innovative curriculum. It has also received grade " A" accreditation by NAAC.
CollaborationsIn February 2002, TERI University entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies of the Yale University. Since 2005, with support from the VK Rasmussen Foundation, there has been a regular exchange of faculty and students between the two universities. TERI University also has MoUs with the Queensland University of Technology, Deakin University, University of Technology Sydney, Utrecht University, Freie University, Simon Fraser University, University of Seychelles. These inter-institutional MoUs are aimed at facilitating a mutually beneficial exchange of students, faculty, knowledge, resources, and ideas.

Although the notion of maximizing profit and addressing society’s needs has been recognized by businesses long back, sustainability issues have been hovering merely around the periphery of business operations. The growing sensitivity of the market, globally and locally, towards environmental, social, and governmental issues, however, provides ample reasons for businesses to bring economic logic closer to these considerations. Hence, sustainability issues are fast becoming the focal point of core business strategies worldwide and the market has also started attaching a premium to this cause. With almost all the big transnational firms having initiated the process of incorporating sustainability issues into their core business strategies, the UN has urged the business world for a ‘responsible investment’. The entire business paradigm is warming up to face the reality of the new challenge involved in internalizing the concept of sustainability in the days ahead.

15Programme StructureMBA (Business Sustainability)The contemporary business models that are followed worldwide have not only generated unforeseen levels of technological innovation and economic growth but have also made emerging economies like India more vulnerable by putting severe strains on our environment, personal lives, and social systems. In TERI University we strongly believe in the synergy between healthy businesses, healthy environments, and healthy societies that essentially provide the fulcrum of an inclusive growth process. The MBA in Business Sustainability not only equips students with acumen to lead in a resource-sensitive world, but also allows them adequate room to inculcate the basic tenets of inclusion and sustainability. The Programme includes conventional MBA courses in Marketing, Business Strategies, Finance, and IT, apart from a basket of electives equips the students with an excellent overview of management issues with sustainability concepts being integrated into the same. In that sense it is an MBA plus programme.
The learning process is highly participatory and students are encouraged to debate on sustainability principles and practices and brainstorm on multiple solutions for the contemporary sustainability challenges that business organizations of the twenty-first century face, or are likely to face. An additional emphasis is also given on providing ideological, and contextual perspectives on the concepts and strategies employed by the businesses and their stakeholders.
MBA (Sustainability) batch of 2012–14
Sustainability is a 'Way of Life'. Students think more holistically and come up with business solutions which are economically acceptable to a company and fulfill the requirements of host of stakeholders involving the society and environment.

Need for Sustainability in India Businesses across the globe are realizing the importance of integrating sustainability into business practices. Much of the pressure is coming in through various stakeholders, such as the customers, shareholders, and the government. India, being one of the world’s large and fastest growing economies, requires the optimal utilization of its natural and human resources to generate equitable growth and it is evident that the future lies with those companies that integrate sustainability into their business practices. Companies in India have taken cognizance to the same. For instance, The Carbon Disclosure Project, India, witnessed a 35 per cent increase in reporting from 2007–11 highlighting the rising trend of sustainability reporting to ensure greater organizational transparency.
Sustainable practices provide companies with better access to markets, finance, and resources and additionally brings with it tax savings and tax benefits. The ‘2 per cent of profits as CSR’ norm is expected to bring an outflow of Rs 63 billion from the top 500 listed companies in India, and having management professionals within the organization trained in sustainability not only optimize business operations, but also ensures that this legally mandated outflow generates positive returns to the company.
Why Hire Us? The students in this course are exposed to an industry competent curriculum which aims at helping businesses to bridge the gap. The courses, such as Principles and Concepts of Sustainability, Climate Change and Development, Sustainability Reporting and CSR, Sustainable Business Strategy, Business and Society and Environmental Economics help the students recognize the need, challenges, and ways to approach long-term viability of businesses through management and optimization of resources without compromising on profitability and competitiveness.

MBA (Infrastructure)With the recent bout of worldwide recession, investments in infrastructure have become crucial in order to sustain the pace of economic growth. Infrastructure has been recognized by the Indian government as the engine of robust future growth of the economy. The latest Union Budget 2012–13 bears ample testimony to such recognition with a substantially enhanced allocation of 50 lakh crore for the sector. The private sector inflows in this sector has been estimated to be US$384 billion over the 11th Five Year plan period. Thus, clearly, the Indian Infrastructure Industry is entering a rejuvenated phase and would inevitably require a pool of skilled professionals to steer its path in a steady manner.
We at TERI University have risen to these challenges well in advance by offering an MBA plus programme with a specialization in infrastructure. We are dubbing it into an MBA plus programme because the programme not only imparts the managerial skills in core subjects like any other conventional MBA course but also equips them with acumen in infrastructure management by offering sector electives in transport, energy, and urban infrastructure. The course also provides a foundation for effective management of
MBA (Infrastructure) batch of 2012–14
The coursework encompasses all the aspects of the infrastructure sector right from the development stage to the execution stage, continuing on till the operations. Critical topics such as regulatory policy, sector economics, finance, and commercials as well as the socio-political aspects associated with large projects are addressed intensely. This equips students from TERI University with skill-sets required for succeeding in the complex world of infrastructure development and management.

Infrastructure Services through comprehensive courses on the regulatory processes and competition policy in the sector. At the University, the students are conditioned with strong conceptual foundation along with the confidence to face the challenges of the infrastructure sector and stand out as the business leaders of tomorrow.
Need for Infrastructure in IndiaInfrastructure is imperative for any nation’s economic development, and can be defined as the goods and services required for an economy to function. A vibrant Indian economy requires a vibrant infrastructure sector, enabling its industries, and people to attain their full economic potential. In the present economic environment, infrastructure is the need of the hour for attaining a high growth trajectory. At the same time, the infrastructural deficit presently found provides opportunities for organizations to profitably meet this unmet need.
Why Hire Us?Infrastructure projects with their high implementation costs and their long gestation periods require professionals who could deliver with respect to quality, cost control, and performance, right from the early stages of project design to the final retirement of the infrastructure asset.
The MBA Infrastructure course aims to produce administrators equipped with the knowledge and skill sets necessary to meet the challenges unique to the infrastructure sector. The students in addition to generic specializations in Marketing and Finance, undertake sector specific specialization, thus providing them with the unique perspective necessary to successfully implement management principles within the constraints which are specific to the sector of their specialization.
