The curriculum of MBA programs has changed over the decades, not only in the content of the courses that are offered but in the actual design of the curriculum. MBA programs have traditionally been structured in functional silos. Normally , Students take common stand-alone courses like accounting, finance, marketing, Human Resources, Agribusiness , supply chain management and there is no integration of the materials. This traditional methodology has seen a metamorphosis, especially in full time MBA programs.
Integration in an MBA++ curriculum means you no longer take that stand-alone accounting or finance course. Faculties, often teaching in teams, deliver in modules where content is discussed from multiple perspectives. This allows students to understand how business functional areas fit together in support of each other in a culture of continuous improvement. Cross-discipline classes or modules directly map onto solving real business problems in a strategic and innovative way.
MBA++ methodologies allow students to focus on mastering knowledge and skills through refinement, reiteration and continuous improvement, giving students a chance to reach proficiency through an interactive learning process. Along with team teaching, using integrated and live case studies, team projects and presentations, guest speakers and site visits can all be used to add value to a cross-disciplined curriculum.
