Capstone Projects

SKILL DEVELOPMENT AND ENRICHING INTERDISCIPLINARY EXPOSURE THROUGH CAPSTONE PROJECTS AT SoIM

At the School of Innovation and Management (SoIM), we believe that true learning lies in applying knowledge to solve real-world challenges. To instill this ethos, we integrate Capstone Projects as a cornerstone of our academic experience. Every student at SoIM undertakes an individual capstone project for each course across all six trimesters, ensuring a consistent and immersive learning journey.

These capstone projects are designed to:

Encourage Practical Application

Students translate theoretical concepts into actionable insights by solving course-specific challenges.

Build Skill Mastery

Regular engagement with projects hones research, analytical, and problem-solving skills over time.

Foster Independent Thinking

Individual projects empower students to take ownership of their learning and showcase their unique perspectives.

A Trimester-Wise Experience

Each trimester, students embark on capstone projects that align with their coursework, spanning areas like marketing strategies, financial modelling, technological innovation, organizational behaviour, and sustainability.

This structured approach ensures that students progressively develop expertise in diverse domains, with each project building on the last to enrich their academic and professional profile.

Personalized Guidance

Our faculty mentors work closely with students, offering feedback and insights to refine their work and enhance learning outcomes.
