Pedagogy or the approach to teaching influences the overall development of learners. At MET Mumbai, both theory and practical lessons are imparted in a way that the students reflect the proficiency and competence of the tutors and their methods as the students forge ahead in their professional lives. The consummation of MET graduates in the corporate world speaks volumes for the pedagogy in the institution.

Every important discipline at MET is imbued using interactive methods – case studies, management games, role plays, workshops, videos, networking, seminars, and more, in order to deliver a cornucopia of empirical learnings. This is further enhanced by eight weeks of Summer Internship, Live Projects, and Industry Threshold program in the fourth semester drawing in placements.

How does MET hone the students’ skills?

Launchpad

Placement

Students are given extensive training and mock sessions of group discussions and personal interviews. Tie-ups with corporates allow the students to participate in live projects, summer programmes, and executive projects.

Certifications

Certification courses at different stages are conducted in areas like e-business management – introduction and advanced levels; Strategic e-marketing / finance / HR / digital business; Crossing the corporate threshold

Besides the above, the college aids in Industry orientation, facilitating in placements.

The MET alumni cell continues to support the alumni in research and consultancy, besides offering lateral placements.

Human Centered Design Thinking

MET students are taught to think out of the box. They are encouraged to put innovation in their approach, to unleash the untapped potential to get forge ahead of the pack. With this initiative, the students launched: ‘Human Centred Design Thinking’ – a compassionate, synergetic, buoyant, and developmental project. The students came up with original concepts and constructed original models.

Some of the amazing models were: a modern cycle helmet, a house in a room, a modern bus stop for futuristic cities, an eco-friendly sachet to replace plastic ones, an ergonomic flex cart to help construction site workers, etc. Most of the prototypes have market potential too.
