II Year Teaching and Evaluation Scheme
(In Accordance with AICTE Model Curriculum)
(with Effect from Academic Session 2021-22)

PREAMBLE
The Evaluation Scheme and Syllabus for Second Year MBA (Logistics and Supply Chain
Management) programme is designed with a view to enhance the knowledge and skills of
management graduates for employment in Logistics, Manufacturing, Warehouse, Sourcing and
Supply Chain Operations in various functional areas. The guidelines of Model Curriculum of
AICTE are duly considered by incorporating relevant emerging areas in logistics and supply
chain management. It has also followed the guidelines of New Education Policy (NEP) to
specify the learning outcomes for each subject and used Bloom’s hierarchical model as expected
indicators of learning levels. The specified levels of learning outcomes are indicative and could
be used suitably for assessment and evaluation. That could also be used for planning of teaching-
learning sessions with suitable pedagogy and learning resources.

The management education is dynamic and driven by socio-economic and technological changes
as well as innovations. Hence, it is expected that, latest updates from research, industry practices
and cases must be discussed extensively during teaching to achieve the desired levels of
knowledge and skills with practical outlook among graduating students. The detailed syllabus
has introduced case studies and latest updates also.

Visits to Manufacturing Units, Logistics Companies, Ports etc. and some short duration Projects
will be helpful to graduating students in gaining the feel of Experiential Learning. It will help in
orienting the students towards entrepreneurship in Logistics business.

Technological integrations with Automation and Big Data have changed the face of planning
and decision making of Industries. The Supply Chain processes are driven by ERP System and
High-End Technologies for real time tracking and identifications during transportation for better
customer’s support. While designing the syllabus, emphasis is also given on the quantitative
approaches and analytics which will help the students to understand the patterns within data to
forecast the trends with simulation and modelling. Hence, it is highly recommended to have
practices on spreadsheet and suitable software.

Course Description
Every human being has two sets of questions to answer for his life: a) what to do? and, b) how
to do?. The first set pertains to the value domain, and the other to the skill domain. Both are
complimentary, but value domain has a higher priority. Today, education has become more and
more skill biased, and hence, the basic aspiration of a human being, that is to live with
happiness and prosperity, gets defeated, in spite of abundant technological progress. This
course is aimed at giving inputs that will help to ensure the right understanding and right
feelings in the students in their life and profession, enabling them to lead an ethical life. In this
course, the students learn the process of self- exploration, the difference between the Self
and the Body, the naturally acceptable feelings in relationships in a family, the
comprehensive human goal in the society, the mutual fulfillment in the nature and the co-
existence in existence. As a natural outcome of such inputs, they are able to evaluate an ethical
life and profession ahead.
