Management programs offered should provide an opportunity for students to choose the courses which facilitate their multifaceted learning to augment employment opportunities. Managerial portfolios or roles demand that prospective candidates should have the ability to function in an environment where frequent interaction with different departments is the order of the day. Management Institutions need to own the responsibility of grooming students to have exposure to various functions of an organization. Programs offered by the business schools and courses designed should focus on students gaining knowledge and skills in more than one functional area. For instance, in an organization be it a manufacturing or service industry, a decision like providing credit to customers demands knowledge of both finance and marketing areas as it has implications for both the departments.
