Studying abroad not only provides you with broader perspectives of the world, but also allows for personal growth. A study-abroad experience helps to build a strong resumé, as many businesses hire job candidates who have these experiences.

As a student participating in one of these programs, you’ll study under professors employed by the partnering university in each country, and in some locations, Valpo’s own faculty. You’ll also experience the languages, people, cultures and customs of each country firsthand. You may even find yourself exploring Gothic art at the Salisbury Cathedral in England after a classroom lesson; visiting ancient pyramids and Indian village markets in Mexico; or touring the Eiffel Tower in France. The best part is that you can spend a semester or year abroad and, in most cases, still graduate in four years!

From Director’s Desk

 

 

The Karunya School of Management (KSM) was established in 1995 with the objective to deliver high quality management education.  Over the past one and half decade Karunya School of Management as grown from a humble start and has attained the 52nd rank among the Southern Region B-Schools according to the Business Outlook rating September 2009. Karunya School of Managementhas managed to implement numerous project for students, established trimester pattern for effective learning, and gained recognition as the premier B-School for  imparting management education in South India.

Karunya School of Management commits itself to continue encouraging and, where possible, facilitating and enabling its students to take a leading role in developing the Nations economies. This will be done by setting standards for ourselves to produce graduates who will be internationally competitive, who will be problem solvers and who will be responsive to the managerial and economic problems facing our country.

We will strive to make Karunya School of Management even more visible in India and elsewhere in the world. Most of the visions and long term plans of Karunya School of Management articulate that we will be on the driving seat among the B-Schools from this part of the region.  This will however remain rhetoric unless this articulation is translated into strategies that empower teachers to produce high quality managers who will in turn steer India’s economies.

 Among other things, Karunya School of Management will:

• Devote its efforts in strengthening Academic Standards through Industry endorsed robust curriculum.
• Continue raising standards for its faculty members for them to be able to produce better quality managers;
• Facilitate national and international networking amongst business schools, as well as between business Schools and Industry through articulated MoU’s.
• Encourage Students to continue learning from and emulating strong  leadership in the world;
• Encourage dialogue and mutual working relations between governments, business sectors and business schools;
• Build strong links with Alumni in the diaspora and with all other well wishers in the development of Karunya School of Management.

I believe that Karunya School of Management is well positioned to make a major contribution to the development of business world through supply of trained and committed personnel to take on corporate responsibilities.
