The institute began an ‘Executive Development Program’ with the purpose of enabling managers and entrepreneurs in Madurai and nearby areas to hone their skills and make them more efficient and productive.
The EDP was a roaring success, with profuse accolades pouring in from the industry; this provided the requisite stimulus to launch the MBA course in 1972, as a part-time program. The full-time MBA program was introduced in 1986 and quickly became very popular among aspiring managers.
Today the institute offers MBA and PGDM programs which are approved by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and accredited by the National Board of Accreditation (NBA), New Delhi. The UGC and Madurai Kamaraj University have conferred the status of autonomous in 2010. Students can apply for admission to TSM by taking Management exams CAT, MAT, XAT, or TANCET. There is no capitation fee, and the entire fee structure is uniform and transparent.
To equip the students to take on the competition during placements, students at TSM are provided hands-on training in various business operations across industry verticals. By forging strong bonds with industry leaders, the institution is in a position to provide excellent summer internships to students. The rich experience they gain at the corporate houses has helped the students land plum jobs – and even receive multiple offers in campus recruitment drives.
With a firm belief in holistic education, the institute not only offers a dynamic course curriculum but also inculcated analytical and problem-solving skills in the students through various methods; soft skill training, including English and Hindi communication, statistics, computer applications, and so on are provided depending on the chosen courses and the student’s aptitude.
