Impact of Online Management Education

Abstract

This study explores the perspectives of students currently pursuing full-time management programs who are facing severe pandemic situation across the world. Students who are pursuing management education through universities that follow traditional methods may not be able to provide academic support compared to B-Schools. Conversely, leading business schools adopted the latest techniques in all areas of management education. Irrespective of methodology, no academic institution should compromise academic quality, as doing so would have far reaching consequences. Keeping in view of the situation during the last academic year, 2020-21, this chapter intends to draw the attention of stakeholders about the opinions of prospect managers in India. The objectives are 1) to make a comparative study of the perspectives of students pursuing full-time graduate programs in management offered at either universities or B-Schools and 2) to understand the psychological impact of online education in the students pursuing management programs.
