Semester End Faculty Meeting – May 27, 2023
The SCMS Post Graduate Programs faculty met on Saturday, May 27, 2023, to deliberate on the semester gone by. The event was attended by fifty faculty and eleven alums. The Hon'ble Vice-Chancellor Dayananda Sagar University kicked off the program and spoke on several management and higher education issues and areas of improvement. Faculty and alums inputs were duly noted, and action items were generated.
English Language as a Skill!
People with more positive attitudes toward learning English make more of an effort and learn more than people with negative attitudes. However learning a new language can be challenging to most. At SCMS we have addressed this by having our students learn English using animation and gamification as an intervention.
In a first of its kind process the learning app will be proctored and give students an opportunity to learn by practice and play with a pedagogy that is both immersive and hugely entertaining.
While there are plenty of good language learning apps on the market, our own finding is that learners still benefit from having an effective teacher and a supportive learning community. Teachers help students set achievable goals and overcome barriers that inevitably arise along the way. Supportive classmates provide accountability and the friendly push that students need to keep up with their study plans. The learning cohort that will be formed will be a supportive one.

Sports Activities among MBA and EMBA Students - 2022
Sports activities at SCMS-PG, Dayananda Sagar University is an essential part of a student’s life. Sports activities boosts students' mental health and also helps them learn to maintain a balance between their curricular and co-curricular activities. It enables them to be emotionally strong as sports lets them experience various emotions like success, failure, happiness, disappointment, etc.. Sports not only contributes to shaping their personality but also impacts their academic performance significantly. There have been many studies proving that students involved in sports during their college life perform better in academics. Reasons for this can be many, as sport imparts them with the skills of time management and also acts as a stress buster when they are loaded with too many assignments and deadlines. Students need a break from their daily routine to ensure that they have stable mental health. Sports activities are productive breaks that enhance students’ capacity to think, learn, focus, and contribute to academics.
BADMINTON
Badminton is one of the most popular sports in the World with more than millions of active players worldwide.

Ethnic Day 2022
The number one reason students have for investing so much time and money into a college education is to get a good job, with two thirds of them seeing “financial stability” as the primary goal. And yet, despite record low unemployment, under-employment is extremely common, with as many as 80% of college graduates working in jobs that don’t actually require their qualifications.
At Dayananda Sagar University - School of Commerce & Management Studies (PGP) Sagar University, School of Commerce & Management Studies, we recognise the need to inculcate generic skills and prepare our students for a life that is more substantive than just a job. Accepting diversity and celebrating it is an ethos that Bengaluru lives by and so do our students.

Students formed teams of four, each assigned to place orders and manage inventory for one firm in the channel. In this simplified channel, orders are the only information to flow among channel participants. The instructor can work with students to understand the nature of the problems they experience, identify the causes, and discuss possible remedies.
