Success Isn’t Accidental.

It is ambitious, it is audacious, and it is bold. Yet, success will only remain a dream unless pursued with knowl-edge and purpose.

Vedatya, building upon its core values of research ori-ented faculty,world class curriculum, international placements and student orientation, is now crossing a milestone in its pursuit of knowledge with a brand new fully integrated campus. It is therefore an opportune mo-ment for us to adopt an identity that reflects our pursuit.

Vedatya reflects its core value. “Ved” in Hindi means knowledge and “Aditya” means sun. “Vedatya”, there-fore, is a coined term that means “source of Knowledge”.

We push boundaries for lifelong pursuit of knowledge. Be successful, not by accident, but through Vedatya.

Vedatya. Educator for the service industry.

highLight OF PROgRAMME DELiVERY At VEDAtYA

The School of Management and Entrepreneurship has a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary approach to learning that is delivered through excellence in academic teaching, applied methods of research and a practical approach to training and consultancy. Teachers who not only have academic experience but also have extensive industry experience deliver the programme with a goal of providing students with real world knowledge and skills to be effective hospitality leaders and entrepreneurs of the future.

The key features of programmes are as follows.

KnOWLEDgE

At Vedatya, our students experience high quality of academic delivery in terms of course content by experts in their respective areas. The teaching pedagogy at the institute includes learning outcomes through the use of lectures, case studies, group discussions, role plays, simulation games and live projects. The section on “Teaching Methodology” provides a detailed description of this unique form of knowledge transfer.

ACtiVE inDustRY intERFACE

In an ongoing endeavor to ensure that the students are exposed to the contemporary practices in theoretical learning and practical training, Vedatya has designed an active industry interface in the form of guest lectures, industry visits, industry mentorship programme, live projects and other similar initiatives. Seasoned industry professionals from a wide spectrum of corporate functions routinely feature as guest speakers, visiting faculty and conference participants to provide a real world perspective and an enhanced student learning experience. The students gather valuable perspective and guidance from industry visitors and gain insights into corporate life.

gLOBAL EXPOsuRE

Vedatya recognizes the importance of a global perspective for its students in this boundary less world. Therefore one of the institute’s criteria for recruiting faculty is to bring teacher on board who have global teaching and industry experience. This invaluable knowledge is of immense benefit to Vedatya students.The global perspective is emphasized at Vedatya also through its curriculum. The course work showcases the interrelatedness of global political, economic, legal, social, technological, cultural and environmental systems to business situations. Through the tie-ups with some of the leading global business schools and companies, the institute’s students gain exposure to different business environments and cultures thus encouraging students to expand their perspective beyond domestic borders. Additionally, the students in many-a-case are taken for interactive sessions to foreign universities and corporate organizations at international locations. The visit involves interaction with the industry and local universities. This helps students understand the global business climate. All costs are borne by the students.

VEDATYA INSTITUTE

PROjECts AnD EngAgEMEnt in COMMunitY sERViCE

We at Vedatya ensure that our students not only emerge as successful business leaders but also mature to become responsible citizens who make a meaningful contribution to the society. The program provides a platform for students to appreciate and contribute in activities and issues of social relevance. Our program places special emphasis on training students in the use of managerial sciences for the rural sector. This is also in line with the evolving business standard. In recent years Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become a fundamental business practice and has gained much attention from chief executives and executive management teams of larger international companies. They understand that a strong CSR program is an essential element amongst the portfolio of business initiatives. Hence it is no surprise that most employers prefer to hire students with real world community service experience that makes you a multifaceted professional and sets you apart from the competition.Vedatya offers special avenues to expose its students to various societal concerns and also undertake projects to contribute meaningfully to the world around us. In this respect, we have an active collaboration with an NGO called Goonj. This initiative is a unique resource mobilization activity for providing clothes and other basic amenities to millions of people in the far-flung areas by turning one’s waste into a resource for another. Initiated in 1998 with just 67 clothes, Goonj now sends out over 20,000 kgs of material every month in 19 states. They are targeting their efforts towards people steeped in poverty in some of the remotest parts of the country. Goonj have won many prestigious awards including CNN IBN Heroes Awards, India NGO of the year Award, Change Makers Innovation Awards and Development Market place Award from the World Bank. Vedatya is therefore very proud to be part of such an initiative.

tOtAL PERsOnALitY DEVELOPMEnt

We believe personality has the power to open many doors and take pride in enabling comprehensive personality development of all our students. The industry values professionals with traits that include high personal grooming standards, etiquettes that are sensitive to cultural context, and personal work ethic. Our students are prepared and positioned to meet any corporate expectations in this regard through various workshops and training sessions designed and delivered by experts on the following subjects.

� Fine dining etiquettes � Self-esteem and confidence building � Public speaking and presentation skills � Interview techniques and group discussions � Voice modulation and body language � Social graces and proper email & telephone etiquettes � Personal hygiene and grooming essentials � Working in cross cultural teams

ALuMni sPEAK

A new definition of perseverance and leadership was demonstrated and asked to nurture in us every single day. My parents say there is a transition in my entire personality today. The experiences i gained from these years will stick with me for life and make them worth remembering. These are supposed to be some of the best years I have lived so far. And I owe this to the entire fraternity of Vedatya. The entire journey became easy and worthwhile because luckily I had immense faculty support. I do not remember an instance when I walked in with an issue and felt disappointed rather I was inspired and mentored to tackle them.

Shahnaz Hussain, SOME 2012 GraduateAMS - Consulting & Outsourcing

Vedatya turned me into a performer. Therefore, after completing my course, I applied for an MBA in one of the leading US institutes. I was able to crack all the tests and was offered a merit-based scholarship for ‘outstanding academic achievement and demonstrated leadership potential’. I would like to thank the institute for helping me achieve this goal.

Shubhankar Goel, SOME 2010 GraduateDigital Marketing Analyst, Publicis Kaplan Thaler, New York

Vedatya transformed me from a student to a professional. Apart from developing knowledge about management studies, the faculty ensures overall personal development. An internship experience in UK helps you apply the classroom theory into practice which I believe is an unmatched feature to any other programme for undergraduate study in India.

Sulabh Chhabra, SOME 2007 GraduateCo-Founder, Ask Birbal, New Delhi, India

The internship in London was an eye opener and helps one relate to the practicalities of the corporate world. These experiences can be put into perspective in the final year and is definitely the best thing learning from the programme.

� Unlike the traditional summer training programme that is typically limited to two months of work training, the Industrial Internship programme is over one continuous 12 month work term.

� Corporations choose the most suitable student for their organization through their own recruitment procedure.

� The Industrial Internship programme has been established to provide an opportunity for students to obtain a practical industrial earning experience.

� The idea is to expose them to the world of work such that they appreciate the deviations from theory at the ground level.

� The institute will organise an internship on a best effort basis. However, if students have specific requirements, then they would have to look for their own internships.

� For internships in Europe, US/Canada there may be separate expenses.
