UNTIMELY DEPARTURE OF
A VISIONARY
DR.PRADEEP P.THEVANNOOR
(1968 - 2014)
Dr. Pradeep Thevannoor, the late Vice Chairman of SCMS Group, was a great visionary and a
source of inspiration for all of us at SCMS Group. He wanted to take SCMS to great heights in
quality and excellence. A man of fertile imagination and untiring energy he was in a hurry to
accomplish his pet projects. SCMS Engineering College was closest to his heart. He was also the
guiding force and inspiration behind SCMS School of Architecture and projects like SCMS Water
Institute, Biotechnology Research Centre, the now famous Neera, biofuel from coconut oil, the
antidiabetic tea powder ‘Stevia Tea’ and a host of other activities. They were all products inspired
and initiated by him. Widely travelled, his unfinished mission was spreading the wings of SCMS
to London and Bangalore by establishing academic institutions. He died on his way to Bangalore
for project evaluation on 17.11.2014 when his car collided with a truck and died instantly. As
was his nature he lived for SCMS and died for it.

Let’s talk Business
W
e are living in a world that is ever changing
with significant changes brought about by
technological shifts, new competitive forces, new
consumer trends and evolving regulatory landscapes.
To mould socially responsible leaders for managing
business in this dynamic world, is a major challenge
more than ever. It calls for a responsive and
proactive system of education capable of developing
competencies and skills involving innovation and
creativity, breaking away from the traditional ways
management education was imparted. In these times
of volatility, uncertainty and complexity, it takes
renewed vigour, courage and confidence to make it
inspirational to the aspiring students of management.
We at SCMS are geared to take this challenge. We
endeavour to prepare our students to take up the
emerging challenges and groom them towards
excellence as they pass through the portals of this
institution.
The curriculum at SCMS COCHIN SCHOOL
OF BUSINESS fully recognizes the need for skill
development and value-based holistic training of the
students. Its unique learning approach is designed to
significantly transform and empower students to excel
in their professional domains and achieve lifelong
succes in a dynamic global environment. We are

creative leadership in business and a proactive and
useful role in social transformation.
Welcome to the world of opportunities to transform
your aspirations into a reality!

How we teach and transform our
students
SCMS education is rich, demanding and
transformative. The mastery demonstrated by SCMS
graduates across the professional and vocational
spectrum and the influence they wield - whether
in their own communities or on the world stage - is
testament to a singularly empowering postgraduate
experience. SCMS education fosters in students the
highest standard of readiness for the 'real world,' in
terms of their ability to think, to act and to contribute
effectively in their chosen areas of interest. We give
special focus to areas given below:
Skill in communication
One must have the ability to effectively communicate
in a friendly way. Though this looks easy one needs
tremendous amount of training to achieve this
ostensibly simple skill.
Interpersonal skills &
teamwork
Getting on with people is an art in which only very
few people excel. One can learn this art through
proper training. To be a member of a team one has to
have the skill to get on with people.
Ethical & Moral Values
A socially responsible manager always adds an
ethical dimension to whatever he does to promote his

business and continuously inculcates in his team a
sense of value aimed at the well-being of the society.
SCMS COCHIN SCHOOL OF BUSINESS ensures
every student leaves its campus with a firm belief in
ethical and moral values.
Empathy
Humaneness and understanding of feelings and
problems of others are also qualities that have to be
inculcated in future managers by training.
Analytical skills &
decision making
An analytical mind is a product of training. When a
person confronts a problem or faces a situation or has
multiple choices from which to select one, his mind is
put to strain. A well trained analytical mind will have
enough data in store to take correct decisions.
The art of negotiation
A business professional will be called upon to negotiate
hundreds of things everyday. Training helps him avoid
pitfalls and leads his family or organisation to success.
Self confidence
It is impossible for one to succeed if one lacks selfconfidence. This process of developing self-confidence
calls for careful nurturing and hence the emphasis on
building self-confidence through training.

Empowering skills
We bring in experts from wherever they are, to train
and sharpen the faculties of our students in all the
skills referred to here, and to empower them to face
the challenges of the KNOWLEDGE DRIVEN twenty
first century.
Mentoring - an innovative
approach in learning
On admission, the students are divided into small
groups. Each group is attached to a faculty mentor
who will be their friend, philosopher and guide for
the next two years of their study at the School. These
groups meet frequently to analyse what they have
studied the previous week or what they have read
in the library or maybe to discuss an issue anyone
in the group did not understand properly. Members
of these groups make regular presentations on current
topics. The faculty member will closely monitor
all the activities of the group attached to him and mentor
them. This programme helps the students shed their
inhibitions, develop communication skills and become
good public speakers and communicators. Students
also learn the intricacies of human relations, methods
of problem solving and decision making.

This programme effectively supplements the
personality development programmes conducted by
renowned experts.
Integrated management
learning programme (IMLP)
Integrated Management Learning Programme is an
innovative learning system in management wherein
every student is guided and activated to develop his
skills in communication, presentation, interpersonal
relations, public speaking etc. to ensure that the
student becomes a successful manager in today’s
competitive market-driven economy. ‘Practice makes
one perfect’ is the principle behind this programme.
Interactive learning
process
Curriculum and Pedagogy ensures efficient delivery
through an interactive learning process.
Leadership Skills
In tune with our vision the students are trained and
inculcated in them qualities of Leadership through
various curricular and co-curricular activities.

to the development of the overall personality of every
enrolled student. We conduct a series of programmes
with external experts to develop and sharpen the skills
in communication, inter-personal relations, analytical
ability, proficiency in public speaking, assertiveness,
self-confidence, interview techniques and a variety of
other aspects that are essential for a manager.
