The Yale-Great Lakes Center for Management Research center aims to promote India-centric management related research which contributes to the development of basic and applied knowledge in the field of management. Some steps towards this objective include inclusion of greater research component in the post graduate program through an empirical study; promoting collaborative research among students in association with other universities; publishing Great Lakes Herald, a journal in the area of management; organizing an international annual research conference and strengthening of research environment and infrastructure.

Empirical Study for PGPM batch

An empirical study requirement has been introduced as part of the PGPM starting May 2007 coordinated by Yale-Great Lakes Center for Management Research. The empirical study requires that every student do a real-life study under a guide, thus enabling the faculty resources to be utilized more effectively. The real-life study allows for an in-depth analysis in one vertical (industry), of a managerial or organizational issue spanning at least 2 horizontals (functional areas), thus turning out to be an advantage for every graduating student. This empirical study is an individual project, will span the entire year, will count as six credits (equivalent to two 3-credit courses), and will require not less than 160 hours of student input. The expected outcome of the empirical study is a paper co-authored by the student with the faculty guide, to be submitted to a refereed journal or conference.
