Course of study will be extended over a period of two academic years under four semester system. Precisely, the course has a structure of nine theory papers and three practical papers which will be completed at the third semester. The fourth semester is exclusively for research leading to the submission of thesis. It includes two parts: thesis evaluation and viva voce by an expert committee nominated by the university.
Each candidate shall submit a dissertation in four copies of the research project undertaken by him/her at the end of 4th semester to the University for valuation.
This shall be held at the end of the 4th semester and shall cover all the topics of course along with the presentation of the dissertation work.
For a pass a candidate must obtain a minimum of 50% in each paper, internal assessment and external examination taken together. Those who fail in any paper need to appear for re-examination in that paper only. A candidate may be declared to have passed the degree course in second class if he/she obtains an aggregate of less than 60% of marks in all papers taken together, in first class if he/she obtains an aggregate of 60% or more marks in all papers taken together provided one completes all papers in the first attempt and in first class with distinction if he/she gets 75% or more marks in aggregate of the total marks in the first attempt.

At SSTM, the faculty has total freedom to choose the method that is best suited for the session. A variety of teaching and learning techniques are employed to impart knowledge and skills.
Lectures, case analysis, simulation games and exercises, syndicates, group discussions, video sessions, team projects, game plays, quiz programmes or computer simulations and practical project work are commonly used. These help develop conceptual, analytical and decision making skills and prepare students to face the challenges of the complex business and organizational environment. Students have the opportunity to work one-on-one with the faculty. Special attention is bestowed when core courses are taught.
This is a novel approach for betterment of education. Immediately after admission, the students are divided into groups of 8 or 10. Each group is assigned to a faculty member who will be their mentor for the remaining two years.
The groups meet to assess, analyse and rehearse. Skills are honed, programmes prepared and issues are discussed. Members of the groups prepare and make presentations. The assigned faculty member closely monitors activities of the group and provides necessary guidance.
This programme help students shed their inhibitions, develop communication skills and become good orators. It effectively supplements personality development programmes conducted at regular intervals by renowned experts at the campus
At SSTM, our MBA programme is re-engineered to be based as close as possible to the real-world criteria. Our faculty will apply their innovative professional expertise to help students assess, develop and apply all the managerial skills, which will make them effective managers.
As part of the teaching system, we conduct interface sessions periodically called Institute Industry Interaction (III) by inviting practising managers of different disciplines. These lively sessions help students familiarise with problems that a manager faces and solutions he arrives at in real-life situations
The invited industry leaders also help build rapport with students, making every session a rewarding experience for both.
The instructors will have the freedom to decide the criteria for internal evaluation of each course. However, the assessment criteria can include, internal assessment tests, assignments, project work, group / individual class presentations, case studies, seminars, attendance and class participation. The instructor will make available on LAN clear guidelines regarding the assessment criteria to the class before the commencement of the course. The internal assessment results will be published on the notice board and the students will be given at least a week to have clarifications, if any, before the external examination for the semester.
For all the courses, a written examination of the duration of three hours would be conducted at the end of each semester. Each examination carries a maximum of 60 marks. The end term examination is conducted by the Mahatma Gandhi University.
In case a candidate fails to secure the required minimum of 50 percent marks in the internal assessment, one may secure it by repeating the course altogether in a regular class in a subsequent semester. However, such improvement in sessionals for a course cannot be attempted more than once.
The minimum marks required for a pass in the MBA Programme is 50 percent.
Candidates who have secured not less than 60 percent marks in aggregate for all the four semesters shall be declared to have passed MBA degree examination in First Class. Candidates who have secured not less than 80 percent marks in aggregate for all the four semesters shall be declared to have passed MBA degree examination with Distinction. Candidates for the MBA degree shall be eligible to undergo the course of study in the subsequent semester and take the examination of that semester irrespective of the examination results of the previous semester, provided they have completed all the formalities of attendance, payment of all fees due to the University and registration for the examination in the earlier semesters.
No student shall be allowed to appear in the University examination of a course if he/she has not secured 75 percent of attendance for each course during semester.
