What is your Teaching Philosophy?

“Students are encouraged to learn from faculty as well as peers”

My teaching philosophy includes cultivating an active learning environment, both within and outside the classroom, where our students are inspired to share their expectations, expertise and exchange each other’s perspectives. Learning is primarily focused on active classroom discussions and group assignments, Cases and Internships. 

How do you tend to establish healthy relations with the students and fellow faculty?

Compromising authority can help the faculty to get closer to the students and understand them better. Faculty members are mentoring them to improve their academic performance by compromising the authority. We believe that based on the student-teacher relationship constructive guidance and criticism can be given to the students by understanding them better.
