Symbiosis is managing unprecedented growth, through proliferation of a variety of knowledge institutes as part of its overall education strategy of broad based educational spread. The creation of ?Knowledge Village? by 2006 will elevate its presence as the global learning centre of excellence. Symbiosis is keen on following a twin strategy of going outside India and of inviting centres of excellence to India.
SCMHRD continues to play a dominant role in the institution building process and has plans to move beyond the traditional role of erstwhile B-school. It is creating a paradigm around which others shall be measured and has very specific plans to respond to changing educational needs. The visible shift to create global entrepreneurship and resultant leadership will shift the dimension of learning. I am confident that SCMHRD shall search and grow much higher than where it is today.
SCMHRD fosters the pursuit of knowledge and skill building. The spirit of inquiry leads to asking questions, analyzing possibilities and resolving answers. The institute offers many avenues that broaden the horizons and develop intellectual potential. SCMHRD shapes leaders who are ready to take on the challenges of the corporate world, primed with functional knowledge, systems orientation and analytical thinking.
The campuses are located in rustic surroundings in the Infotech Park, Hinjewadi, Pune and near the industrial belt in Nashik, amidst towering corporate establishments like Infosys, Wipro Technologies, and Tata Technologies to name a few. SCMHRD continues to adopt transformational processes in the field of management education.
Centre for Excellence
' Drivers Of Change'
There has been a significant shift in the corporate paradigm, from running profit-driven businesses to creating value. This has increased the level of competitiveness, which in turn has accelerated the rate at which business models become obsolete. SCMHRD stresses on the challenges of the corporate world, which demands value players who can innovate and drive change. Continuous value creation has thus become the engine for success. SCMHRD focuses on creating ?change leaders? who can add value.
The SCMHRD culture provides the students an interactive learning environment that allows them to think and to reflect, to explore and to express. A culture that instills in the students a sense of purpose and an orientation for action. The students become responsible committed professionals with a spirit of service, which helps them excel in whatever they choose to do.
SCMHRD Mission:
To develop a consortium of educators, researchers and business leaders who share a common ideal of achieving world-class professional and academic excellence.
