Faculty Resources:

Be it a B-School or any educational institute the core resource is teaching team. Other infrastructural resources would work as support to the main resource that is faculties of a Business School. With this idea at GSM selection of faculties is done meticulously by the Board of Trustees keeping in mind the requirement of students and the high level of education we are looking forward to impart. Although management education is all about practice but this knowledge needs to be imparted as well in most correct way so that students gain a lot of practical knowledge. Experienced and highly skilled faculties with high level of motivation are working at GSM who are ever-ready to help students in any matter be it academic or non-academic.

Each and every faculty is continuously involved in the students’ activities and other matters which help students to grow intellectually. Apart from interacting students in class-rooms faculties are participating actively in industrial assignments and projects which improves their exposure ultimately benefiting the students.
