There is a significant gap between what the academic institutions are teaching and what the industry
is looking for from the graduating students. The key reasons for this gap are that even the best
academic institutions are:
Not able to catch up with the ever-changing
industry requirements
Mostly focused on academic excellence and not
exposing the students to real-time problems and
the application of knowledge
Trying to produce generalists whereas industry is
looking for specialists
At EThames, our vision is to change this paradigm by redesigning our curriculum and
teaching methodologies to remove this gap and make our students fully ready for taking executive
roles in corporates and perform well. We have internship opportunities available to the students
throughout the year.
The courses and the curriculum are designed for:
Making every student a specialist in her/his
chosen area
Bringing transformational changes in the
Personality of the Students
Providing experiential learning through industry
connect
Making truly global education accessible to every
student of EThames
This will make the students graduating out of
EThames sought after by the industry and they
become competent, confident and committed professionals
We endeavor to make EThames the best place for business studies.
