Course Objectives:
British Colonialism in India represents the most spectacular example of imperialism practiced
in modern times. For about two hundred years India remained a victim of colonialism as a
result of which its economy, society and polity became an appendage of British capitalist and
industrial interests. Changes introduced in the agrarian and industrial sectors had a devastating
effect on the rural population and handicraftsmen. The introduction of English education,
modern capitalist industries, political institutions and bureaucracy, through lop sided and
motivated purely by the colonial interests, produced a kind of structure that was qualitatively
different from the pre-British one. The contradictions between the interests of colonial state
and the Indian people led to the rise of the feeling and ideals of Nationalism.

Course Objectives:
The main purpose of this course is to introduce the dominant streams of western thought.
Political thought, is the study of questions concerning power, justice, rights, law, and other
issues pertaining to governance. Whereas political science assumes that these concepts are what
they are, political thought asks how they have come about and to what effect. Just as Socrates’s
simple question “How should we be governed?” led to his execution, the question “What makes
a government legitimate?” leads to political turmoil when posed at critical times. Political
thought asks what form government should take and why; what duties citizens owe to a
legitimate government, if any; and when it may be legitimately overthrown, if ever. This course
examines major texts in the history of western thought. Many of these texts pose difficult
questions concerning the political community, social order, and human nature. It also considers
the ways in which thinkers like Plato, Machiavelli, Rousseau and others have responded to the
political problems of their times, and the ways in which they contribute to a broader
conversation about human goods and needs, justice, democracy, and the ever-changing
relationship between the citizen and the state.
Course Outcomes
CO 1 A familiarity with the principal modes of political thought in the west.
CO 2 Understanding of political thought through the classical, Renaissance, and
Enlightenment periods based on the works of Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli,
Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Tocqueville, and Marx;
CO 3 Compare and contrast the differences between Plato and Aristotle with regard to
their understandings of the nature of the person, ethics, society, citizenship, and
governance
CO 4 Historical and intellectual context in which the western and Indian political
thought helped to develop the modern state came to be
CO 5 Comparison and contrast of the concepts of justice, freedom, equality,
citizenship, and sovereignty in the works of Machiavelli, Hobbes, Locke, and
Rousseau

This course’s objective is to teach students the domestic sources and the structural constraints
on the genesis, evolution and practice of India’s foreign policy. The endeavor is to highlight

power’. India’s evolving relations with the superpowers during the Cold War and after,
bargaining strategy and positioning in international climate change negotiations, international
economic governance, international terrorism and the United Nations facilitate an
understanding of the changing positions and development of India’s role as a global player
since independence.

10.0 Course Description
Consider this sentence: “Computers are everywhere.” Does it sound like an overstatement?
No matter how we perceive the impact of computers, the statement is true. Computers are
everywhere. In fact, we can find them in some pretty unlikely places, including our car, our
home appliances end even in some alarm clocks and other electronic devices we use. In the
past two decades, computers have reBAPYed our lives at home, work or school. The vast
majority of businesses now use computerized equipment in some way and most companies
are networked both internally and externally. Employees who once had little use for
technology now interact with computers almost every minute of the workday. It therefore
becomes essential for all business graduates to understand how this machine works and
more importantly how to use it in their professional lives in the near future. The knowledge
and skills that one gains from the course should pay dividends in the future, as computers
become even more common at home and at work.
The course begins with a basic overview of fundamentals like the many types of computers
in use today and why people use them. As our knowledge grows we shall realize that all
computers are basically similar.
Like any machine, a computer is a collection of parts which are categorized according to
the work they do. We shall learn about these various families of computer components and
how these work together and allow us to interact with the system. We shall discover the
importance of software, without which a computer could do nothing. We shall also realize
that the user is an essential part of a complete computer system.
When PCs first appeared in businesses, programs were designed for a single user. As
computers spread throughout businesses, developers began offering complex software
designed for multiple users. Data communications- the electronic transfer of information
between computers- became a major focus of the computer industry. This demand for
networks has increased as businesses have realized the value of networking. By
interconnecting many individual networks into a massive single network, people around
the world can share information as though they were across the hall from one another. The
Internet is an example of one such network as is possibly the single largest network in
existence today.
We have seen that hardware alone does not do much of anything. The work that hardware
or operating system can do on its own is very limited. Application software specially the
office productivity suite shifts this focus from computer to humans. The course shall focus
on trying to teach some the basic functionalities of the most commonly used productivity
software in business for text and graphics, spreadsheets and presentations.
11.1 Course Objectives
The objectives of the course are:
⮚ Facilitate a basic understanding of types of computers & their uses.
⮚ Provide a fundamental understanding of computer hardware, software and components.
⮚ Familiarize the students with the computer networks and the internet.
⮚ Facilitate an understanding of the most commonly used business application softwares.
12.0 Course Pre-requisite : None
13.1 Course Outcomes
At the end of the course, the students should be able to:
⮚ Describe how computers are used in various sectors of our society.
⮚ Identify the types of computers they see around them and understand the basic
functionalities of each one of them.
⮚ Understand the working of different components in a microcomputer and the role
played by each in the overall working of the machine.
⮚ Identify the benefits of using computer networks and what they are made up of.
⮚ Understand the reasons for creation of the Internet and the major services that one can
access using Internet.
⮚ Develop a basic familiarity for working with the most commonly used productivity
suites and apply these skills in business scenarios.

business Cycle. The next step is to understand the role of financial system and monetary
policy. The problem of unemployment and labour market is discussed in the next unit. The
last unit deals with the major problem of inflation and stagflation including anti-inflation
policy. Both unemployment and inflation are discussed with relevant empirical evidence
from developed economies and Indian economy as well.

⮚ To explain the framework of analysis of these issues , and
⮚ To apprise the students of the application of theory to the Indian situation on such
major issues.
3.0 Course Pre-requisite : Principles of Economics
4.1 Course Outcomes
After completing the course, the students are expected to know the following:

policy. The problem of unemployment and labour market is discussed in the next unit. The
last unit deals with the major problem of inflation and stagflation including anti-inflation
policy. Both unemployment and inflation are discussed with relevant empirical evidence
from developed economies and Indian economy as well.
