HIGHLIGHTS OF THE UNIVERSITY BUSINESS SCHOOL
The Uni versi ty Busi ness School (Formerl y
Department of Commerce and Business Management) has
been imparting quality management education to develop
dedicated, innovative and effective managers, researchers
and teachers for above three decades. The rechristening
of the Department of Commerce and Busi ness
Management as University Business School in 1995 by
the Panjab University, symbolises the recognition of its
completeness and maturity of the Department as a centre
of management education in India. The transformation from
a Department to a School has given it a distinct identity as
a School of Thought.
The Philosophy of the management education at the
University Business School is built on an integrative value-
system. It is motivated by dutybound work ethics, humane
approach and scientific temper. The philosophy of the
School is translated into mission of creating wholesome
personality of human beings with a view to producing
effective, efficient and innovative managers, researchers
and teachers. Modern attitude, practical wisdom, knowledge
and skill relevant for management are deeply ingrained in
the serene Indian culture.
The School uses rigorous multifaceted pedagogy with
an effective interface with industry to translate the mission
into action. It creates opportunity for its students to enhance
their understanding of economic, social and political
environment to enlarge their ability not only to adjust to
change but to become catalyst, and to develop their power
to conceptualise, decide and communicate.
The faculty of the University Business School, trained
in India and abroad, has earned international recognition
in Industry and academia. The students produced by the
School have made a mark in the world. The School has
been recongnised by the University Grants Commission
under Special Assistance Programme for the following
thrust areas:
(i) Marketing of services and rural marketing,
International Business-Strategies and regional
studies.
(ii) Accounti ng and busi ness fi nance-soci al
responsibility and human resources accounting,
investment decision making and innovative
financing.
The School has been identified by the University
Grants Commission for organising Refresher Courses and
Training Programmes for University and College Teachers.
It has also been given the responsiblity of educational
organising Induction Training Programme for teachers of
educational institutions imparting management education
in the country. It has organised several programmes where
teachers from all over India participated as trainees and

the top 15 Busi ness School s and ranked second
amongst the universities of India. UBS during 2004-
2005 has achieved 100% palcement. More than 54 top
companies selected our graduates.
The faculty interacts with industry through consultancy
assignments, management development programmes, and
industry focussed research and case studies. A good
number of top executives from the industry around
Chandigarh take regular classes at the School, which helps
in imparting pragmatic sense to the teaching learning
process. In addition, management luminaries are invited
for special lectures.
Practical experience in the actual work environment
in the industry is the necessary component of the full time
management programmes. It is compulsory for every
student to go for a summer training of eight weeks duration
at the end of first year. The students relate their class room
learning with the reality of management, and second year
programme becomes more goal oriented and meaningful.
The students take Research Project based on some
aspects of industry in the third and fourth semester of the
educational programme.

full time students. Every year a placement brochure is
prepared containing brief bio-data of the final year students,
and sent to nearly all reputed organisations. Nearly all the
students get placement through campus interviews. The
average annual emoluments for the last year students were
Rs. 5.5 lakhs.
