Course Objectives:
Business Economics is a course, through which students will learn to apply an analytical
approach to the study of how individuals and societies deal with the fundamental problem of
scarce resources. This approach is applied to everyday decisions faced by individuals as they
try to maximize their utility, to businesses that try to maximize profits and to the whole of
society as it attempts to use its resources efficiently. Topics covered in class will include: supply
and demand; consumer theory; the theory of the firm under perfect competition, monopoly and
other market structures and factor markets. The economic principles learnt in microeconomics
can be applied in many real life situations, whether the future finds you reading the newspaper,
running a business, or sitting in the work place. The purpose of this course is to give students a
thorough understanding of the principles of economics that applies to the functions of individual
decision makers, both consumers and producers, within the economic system. The successful
completion of this course should allow students to take better managerial decisions.

Prerequisite Basics of Accountancy
Catalog Description
Accountancy refers to information describing the financial resources, obligations, and activities of
an economic entity. The term financial position is used to describe an entity’s financial resources
and obligations at one point in time, and the term results of operations is used to describe its
financial activities during the year. Accounting information is designed primarily to assist
investors and creditors in deciding where to place their scarce investment resources. Such
decisions are important to society, as they determine which industries and companies and even
countries will receive the financial resources necessary for growth, and which will not. Many other
decision makers also make use of financial accounting information. A company’s manager and
employees constantly need such information in order to run and control business operations.
The objective of this course is to introduce problems of financial accounting such as measuring
and reporting issues related to assets and liabilities and preparing the financial statements. Students
are expected to gain the ability of using accounting information as a tool in applying solutions for
managerial problems, evaluating the financial performance, and interpreting the financial
structure.

Course Overview
The aim of the course is to build knowledge and understanding of Organisational Behaviour among
the students. The course seeks to give detailed knowledge about the subject matter by instilling
them basic ideas about OrganisationalBehaviour. Organizational behaviour, or “people skills,” is
the field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups, and structure have on
behaviour within organizations, for the purpose of applying such knowledge toward improving an
organization’s effectiveness. Organizational behaviour has a goal to help the managers make a
transition to the new paradigm. Some of the new paradigm characteristics include coverage of
second-generation information technology and total quality management such as empowerment,
reengineering and benchmarking, and learning organizations for managing diversity at work. The
new paradigm sets the stage for the study, understanding, and application of the time-tested micro-
variables, dynamics and macro-variables. One must know why management needs a new
perspective to meet the environmental challenges and to shift to a new paradigm.

Programme BBA in Logistics & Supply Chain Management
Academic Session 2021-2022 Semester I Instructor(s) Credits 3 No of Sessions 45 Prerequisite
Catalog Description
Logistics & Supply Chain concerned with the efficient flow of materials, products, and information within and
among organizations. Supply chain management involves the integration of business processes across
organizations, from material sources and suppliers through manufacturing and processing to the final
customer. The program provides students with the core knowledge related to a wide variety of supply chain
activities, including demand planning, manufacturing planning and control, purchasing, transportation
management, warehouse management, inventory control, material handling, product and service support,
information technology, and strategic supply chain management. The program takes a balanced approach to
supply chain education, requiring courses in operations, logistics, and purchasing for all students. The major
builds an understanding of how logistics and transportation are managed by connecting students to business
logistics in the field through interactions with executives in the classroom. Students will be skilled in identifying
the critical service and cost factors when making business logistics decisions, and students will be equipped
with the skills to evaluate trade-offs between the factors and to ultimately make the most cost effective and
service effective logistics decisions. The field of retail logistics includes professions such as supervisors/
managers of warehouse, inventory management, transportation and procurement management. The demand
for trained logistics professionals is growing nationally, resulting in huge career opportunities and is projected
to add substantial numbers of new jobs in India and overseas. The teaching methodology includes lectures
using power point, case studies, articles, group discussions, role plays and presentations. Students are expected
to study the topic/assigned chapters before they come to class. Interaction during lectures is encouraged and
therefore each student is expected to add valuable inputs during lectures by sharing his/her knowledge,
opinions gained through prescribed readings and articles. Students should be able to demonstrate their
knowledge of retail logistics concepts by applying those in their written exams, case studies discussions,
presentations and project works. The students would be given assignment/project, which would enable them
to apply the logistics concepts practically in industry and illustrate those through a written report and
presentation. The course methodology thus encourages students to explore themselves for the
supervisory/managerial role in logistics and supply chain of any organization. General Skills
• Search, analysis and synthesis of data with the use of new technologies
• Decision‐making
• Individual Work
• Teamwork

Course Description:
Production management involves the integration of numerous activities and processes to produce
products and services in a highly competitive global environment. Many companies have
experienced a decline in market share as a result of their inability to compete on the basis of product
design, cost or quality. Most now agree that world class performance in operations, i.e., in product
design, manufacturing, engineering and distribution, is essential for competitive success and long
term survival. This course considers the operations from a managerial perspective. We will
consider key performance measures of operations (productivity, quality and response time) as well
as important concepts for improving the performance of operations along these dimensions. At the
end of the course students will have a fair understanding of the role Production/Operations
Management plays in business processes. Emphasis is given both to familiarization of various
production processes and service systems, and to quantitative analysis of problems arising in the
management of operations.

Course Overview
The course aims to impart skills in consumer insight – by understanding of the needs and wants
which exist as conscious thought and the deeper, sub-conscious motives that drive human behavior
at an implicit level. Theoretical and technological advances in the field of psychology allow
understanding of the human mind thus making it possible to evaluate opinions, test new products
and packaging, make predictions about emerging needs, design promotion and advertising
executions, and conceptualize the marketing strategy in new ways. This course aims to leverage
psychological knowledge to enhance consumer insight, and is based on a consideration of how the
brain works, what factors influence consumer choice, and a critical evaluation of psychological
assessment tools. The course also reviews a range of “levers” that can be used to understand and
influence purchase behavior. The course is developed around a model of human cognition
consisting of sequential mental processing steps (e.g., awareness, interpretation, attitude, etc.) that
intervene between the marketing mix (input) and purchase behavior (output). Based on this
conceptual framework, the course covers the major topics of consumer behavior, including
attitudes, impulsive vs. deliberative purchase, psychographic profiling and assessment, brand
loyalty, experiential marketing, self and identity, and product satisfaction. The course uses a mix
of large cases, mini-cases, experiential exercises and lectures to advance these concepts.
Course Learning Outcomes
After completing the course, students should be able to:
CO1 Relate the framework of Consumer Behaviour and the fundamental concepts of marketing
significant in determining consumer behaviour so that effective marketing programs can be
