Dr Rajiv Seth

From the desk of

Pro Vice-ChancellorAcademic programmes at the TERI University are focussed 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 its students is best achieved through exposure to a variety of subjects, tools, and methodologies offered in interdisciplinary mode. This has been the guiding philosophy behind the programmes offered by the TERI University and is practised by building a theoretical understanding in courses covering a variety of traditional disciplines, such as ecology, natural and social sciences, governance, policy, law, and engineering.

At the TERI University, students are 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 TERI University’s programmes are unique, not only in terms of the degrees, but in terms of the fact that they equip the graduates to lead in a resource-sensitive world. The programmes leverage TERI’s knowledge capital in sustainable development to deepen the social and ethical consciousness of higher education in India.

We are sure that you will find graduates of these programmes to be competent leaders with a holistic and long-term perspective for a world that demands new skills and attitude.

Your feedback will be most valuable to us, and we look forward to it.

PROGRAMME STRUCTURE MBA (Business Sustainability)

Need for Sustainability in India India’s current population encompasses about 1.2 billion people and is expected to grow another 300 million within the next couple of decades. It is predicted that by 2030, 68 Indian cities will each have more than 1 million inhabitants. The rapid growth of cities poses a large number of challenges, including insufficient power supply, unreliable public transport system, and limited access to medical treatment. To meet the challenges of continuing growth without destroying the environment, sustainable development is crucial. Being a sustainable business can be loosely described as meeting the triple bottom line—environmental, societal, and economic—requirements.

India is booming and sustainable businesses are becoming increasingly more important. Business sustainability is a proactive approach to ensure a businesses’ long-term viability and integrity through optimization and management of resource needs and reduction of environmental, energy or social impacts, at the same time not compromising competitiveness or profitability.

As environmental problems have become global in scale, businesses have started becoming aware of their own impacts and responsibilities. The government has been the main impetus behind this with ambitious targets being set to reduce energy use. By making people aware of the efforts–known as ‘cause marketing’, the brand will be remembered for positive reasons. This interaction with the community could also lead to further growth opportunities.

Why Hire Us?

With problems such as pollution, water contamination, and environmental degradation at hand, it is high time that businesses realized the need to inculcate sustainability in their business models. We, at TERI, focus on developing and grooming individuals in a comprehensive manner, to enable them to provide sustainable solutions to modern businesses without compromising on profits.

With the new Companies Act, 2013, companies are gearing up to develop their internal Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) teams. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India, expects companies to have all their CSR programmes in a project documented mode. This would require a dire need for management professionals with skilled expertise in the areas of CSR and sustainability. Also, with the enforcement of stricter environmental and corporate governance laws, companies need to be increasingly compliant to ensure their own sustainability. To add to it, sustainability-related disclosures are becoming increasingly mandatory (e.g., SEBI circular – CIR/CFD/DIL/8/2012). The students of this course are exposed to an industry-relevant curriculum that aims at helping businesses to bridge the gap. 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, when taught along with core business courses such as Corporate Finance, Marketing Management, Consumer Behaviour and Entrepreneurship Development produce the best combination of sustainability professionals who can become the leaders of tomorrow.

MBA Infrastructure

Need for Infrastructure in India

Infrastructure,defined as the goods and services required for an economy to function, is imperative for any nation’s economic development. 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 existing infrastructural deficit provides opportunities for organizations to profitably meet this unmet need. The TERI University is the first university in the country to offer an MBA programme in infrastructure.The increasing emphasis on the infrastructure sector nowadays and the requirements of the industry necessitated the creation of this programme. The programme not only imparts the managerial skills in core subjects, like any other conventional MBA course, but also equips the students with acumen in infrastructure management by offering sectoral electives in water, energy, and urban infrastructure. We, at the TERI University have risen to these challenges well in advance by offering an MBA plus programme with 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 infrastructure services through comprehensive courses on the regulatory

processes and competition policy in the sector. At the University, 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.

Why Hire Us?

Infrastructure projects with their high implementation costs and long gestation periods require professionals who can 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 in Infrastructure programme aims to produce administrators equipped with the required knowledge and skill sets to meet the challenges that are unique to the infrastructure sector. The students, in addition to generic specializations in Marketing and Finance, undertake sector-specific specialization, providing them with the unique perspective necessary to successfully implement management principles within the constraints that are specific to the sector of their specialization.

TERI is one of the best places for academic pursuit of sustainability concepts. The institute/campus has embodied sustainability into its veins, anywhere you walk you will find people talking about applicability of sustainability. By the end of the term, you would have unconsciously absorbed the knowledge. If I have to give a suggestion, it would only be to increase the sustainability related subjects in the MBA course in the second year.

My son was born while I was pursuing my MBA and I will always be thankful for the support and consideration the management and the administration gave me throughout that period. My special thanks to the faculty of MBA Business Sustainability Department. It was a pleasure to interact with them to develop my first understanding of sustainability. My learning would not have been possible without their continuous contribution and hardwork.

—Amrita Bhakta (2013/2015)

The MBA (Business Sustainability) course at TERI has an extremely extensive paedagogy on the subject. It just does not entail sustainable development but closely aligns it to the business model as well. Apart from equipping the students on business sustainability, TERI also has expertise on grooming marketing skills. One of the lessons that TERI teaches is disruptive thinking and this continues to be its USP.

—Priyanka Dhingra (2012/2014)

Overall, the programme helps the students to develop a well-rounded view towards managing in a manner that is socially relevant in today’s world.

— Dr Santosh Pande

The MBA programme at the TERI University’s Department of Business Sustainability follows a ‘mainstreaming’ approach and holistically integrates sustainability concepts in the conventional management curriculum. The programme not only provides formal training and exposure to a suitable environment that will help build a career in management or enable the student to become an entrepreneur, but also exposes students to a vast repository of knowledge on social and environmental issues that impact organizations.

— Dr Kaushik Ranjan Bandyopadhyay

Mainstreaming sustainability in the core of business practices has, of late, received top priority in the agenda of many business organizations. TERI University, known for its ‘Thought Leadership’ in the field of sustainable development education is uniquely placed to offer management education in this domain. The MBA (Business Sustainability) programme at TERI University is designed to tackle the day-to-day sustainability challenges of various business organizations by creating a cadre of management professionals equipped with required skill sets. The programme with its emphasis on strong conceptual understanding along with the focus on advanced paedagogical tools and techniques contributes to the enhanced enrichment of student capacities.

I strongly believe that it would be mutually gainful for the organization as well as for students to draw from each other’s strengths.

— Dr Gopal Sarangi

The MBA programme at the TERI University is an MBA plus unique programme where students are not only trained in management skills but also specialized skills with respect to their programmes. MBA (Business Sustainability) students actually study specialized courses on climate change, business sustainability, sustainability reporting and CSR, and business ethics. Our students are quite sensitive about understanding how firms can adopt sustainable business models and help not only businesses but also the people and planet and hence, are working towards triple bottom line approach.

The fact that our alumni hold prestigious positions in reputed corporate and consultancy houses, such as ONGC, Bharat Petroleum, HPCL, Oil India, KPMG, E&Y, to name a few, proves testimony to our robust curriculum, the exposure our students get in their respective fields, and their inherent desire to make businesses sustainable. Ever since I joined the TERI University, I have been enjoying teaching and learning both with my students who share a common goal with me to make this world a better place through contribution of Indian businesses.

I wish them all the best!
