From The Chancellors desk
TERI University has been set up as an institution
of higher learning to meet the needs of a rapidly
growing economy. One of the key focus areas of the
University is to promote sustainability in Indian
business. The MBA programme at TERI University
helps full this objective by training students to
take on leadership, consulting, and managerial roles in industry.
Todays regulated enterprises require specialist knowledge of the
unique business eco-system and, thus, the need for a specialist
management education has been felt by policy-makers as well as
by the industry. The support extended by the Government of India
and a cross-section of organizations like NTPC, UNEP, USAID, Ford
Foundation, NHPC, SAIL provide a testimony to this reality.
The Management Graduates from TERI University have received
excellent response from business areas as diverse as consulting
and research, nance/investment banking, utilities, energy/power,
infrastructure development, oil and gas, and so on.
By virtue of their intensive training, I see Management Graduates
from TERI University bring about positive transformation in the sectors
in which they choose to pursue their career.

4 MBA (Business Sustainability) Programme
Introduction
In a world which is more socially aware, at a stage
when world leaders call for action, at a time when even
the largest corporations are undergoing testing times,
both industrial and non-industrial actors are being
challenged to take on new roles in a modern society.
While industry, given its repository of leadership
capital, is being called upon to play a much larger
role in societal development, governments and civil
society organizations are being encouraged to work
efciently to achieve social objectives.
For industry, now more than ever, there will
be persistent demand for sustainable and ethical
practices, and accountability to consumers and the
public at large. For governments, the challenge is
of meeting the development goals, while addressing
environmental degradation. These challenges have
increased the demand for new skills and the need to
internalize, within the current education framework,
a high level of social consciousness and ethical
behaviour.
The business leaders of today need to have the
ability and the strength to incorporate strategies
for both sustainability and protability for their
businesses. The managers need to look beyond
short-term prots, and focus on long-term gains by
integrating the environmental and social costs along
with the economic costs while taking management
decisions.
Corporations need to understand and responsibly
respond to issues voiced by stakeholders including
investors, regulators, and non-governmental
organizations, as well as customers and suppliers.
Managers, need to address issues like competing
for market share in a carbon constrained economy,
innovation of new products and services, meeting
challenges of complying to with legislation and
policies pertaining to sustainable future and even
the recruitment and more importantly, retention of
talent in an environmentally aware labour market
for a smooth future growth. The increasing demands
for accountability and transparency regarding a
companys environmental efforts and performance,
pose yet another challenge.
In response to such challenges facing the
organizations across the globe, TERI University started
its MBA Business Sustainability programme. This
programme is not just an MBA programme its an MBA+
programme, which leverages TERIs knowledge capital
in sustainable development to deepen the social and
ethical consciousness of management education in
India. This MBA+ course prepares future managers to
better understand the changes in the business world
and the governments while satisfying the demands of
the increasingly aware and vocal modern consumer. It
is an effort on the part of TERI to align leadership in
both industry and government to current contexts. In
doing so, this programme will enhance the scope and
knowledge body of management education in India,
by catering not only for developing new skills, but
also to developing new perspectives, related to the
integration of sustainable and ethical practices into
management education.
The students of MBA in business sustainability at
TERI University, through their compulsory research,
are exposed to rst hand information of the tools,
practices, the current and future trends in the market.
They also gain from the practical exercises and
experiences to be able to develop tools to evaluate
an organisations own sustainability orientation and
make responsible future management decisions.
The graduates of this course would have instilled
in them a core value system and an understanding of
larger social and environmental responsibilities, that
would make them stand out as business leaders of the
future.
Programme Outline
Core courses are offered in the rst two semesters
that rst provide the foundation, and then the
tools, for sustainable business management. These
core courses, covering the established business
disciplines, would have sustainability as a l rouge
running though them. Hence, business sustainability

MBA (Infrastructure) Programme
Introduction
Infrastructure forms the backbone of an economy. And
today, as the world shrinks into a global village, there
is a need for Indian infrastructure to be competitive
and at par with the international standards. According
to the annual report by the Infrastructure Development
Finance Company, our economy is expanding faster than
our capacity to support it. IDFC also talks about how the
Indian infrastructure is crumbling under the weight of
our past economic progress and can not support even the
moderate growth rates that we are now projecting let
alone the high growth regime that we aspire towards.
There are number of examples to illustrate the poor
pace of infrastructure development in India. In the power
sector, only 31% capacity has been added in this nancial
year, as compared to the targeted value. The progress in
building National Highways this year has slowed down
as compared to the last year, with only 20% of the total
road length completed till now. Of the many reasons for
this slogging progress, delays across the chain of events,
fall in the number of projects awarded and funding
constraints and the global nancial meltdown are the
most prominent. These problems can not be segregated
from one another, and the solution lies in understanding
the upstream and downstream sectoral linkages. In 2008
09, the shortage of fuel for power generation accounted
for the severe shortage of power. Integrated planning
also ensures stronger inter-agency coordination. The
modernization of many non-metro airports was held
up due to the differences of opinion between various
agencies on the model to be pursued.
A sound understanding of these linkages is the critical
need today. At TERI, under the leadership of Dr R K
Pachauri, our knowledge and experience in sustainable
development of infrastructure and economy using
available and emerging technology holds the power
to redene how infrastructure projects are handled
protably in India. The Energy and Resources Institute,
also known as TERI, was formed with the vision of
exploring and understanding the problems related to
environmental degradation faced by the planet. TERI
is recognized and respected globally, for its efforts
and achievements in the eld of analysis and solutions
relating to these problems. With time, TERI broadened its
horizons to provide formal and world-class post graduate
education in areas like Policy Studies, Environmental
Studies, Climate Change and now, Infrastructure and
Business Sustainability, to name a few.
The MBA (Infrastructure) programme grooms its students
to understand and improvise the existing blueprints of
infrastructure projects. This knowledge has guided many
investors, nancial institutions and government agencies
through a clear understanding, derived from multi-
dimensional analysis of the various elements in their
projects. When it comes to infrastructure management
and policy planning for sustainable development, TERI
has a wealth of experience and knowledge and offers
best solutions in this sector. Infrastructure development
has major long-term issues, and TERI builds its students
to be long-term players. As President Obama has rightly
said, Its important to listen to what scientists (experts)
have to say, even when its inconvenient, especially
when its inconvenient.
Progamme Structure
The two-year programme offers training in the traditional
management disciplines such as a management
concepts, marketing, and organizational behaviour. In
addition, there is emphasis on the four foundations
of infrastructure management: Finance, Economics,
Technology and Risk Management, and Law.
While the programme provides a basic structure for
study in the rst year, students are the primary designers
of their educational and career trajectories through their
choice of major projects in the second year. The two-
year MBA (Infrastructure) is being offered to students
in two optional streams.
Stream I A regular programme for graduate students
Stream II A programme with an orientation towards
research dissertation for practicing professionals
rather than towards course credits. The course allows
professionals the exibility to take up a research-
thesis-based curriculum. It is mandatory for students to
undertake course work in the rst year. In the second
year, students will have to undertake a thesis and
defend it at the end of the year. Students of Stream II
of the progamme do not have to undertake course work
Semesters III and IV, but will work on a thesis instead.
In addition, students have the exibility to pursue
one or more sector and functional specializations by
selecting a set of elective courses from the designated
streams in the third and fourth semester. Students
have to choose at least four electives each in the third
and the fourth semester. A minimum of three electives
from any one functional specialization stream such as
marketing or nance constitutes a specialization. In
addition, a minimum of two electives from any one
sector stream constitutes a specialization. At least one
sector specialization and one functional specialization
is compulsory.

Besides its core faculty, the University draws upon the expertise of over 30 research professionals of TERI. The
University provides a stimulating interface between enthusiastic students and faculty whose work has been
recognized by the scientic community.
Summer Internship and Major Research
Project
Students are required to register for a summer
internship for a period of 8 weeks in an external
organization. Most importantly, the Major Research
Project in Semester 4 is a core requirement earning 15
credits. Detailed project guidelines are made available
to the students for meeting course requirements for
the summer internship and major research projects.
These projects, carried out with the student housed
in the host organization, provide the students
with a forum to focus on sustainable development
challenges in industry and civil society. The students
also participate in the analysis and the problem
solving process. Each internship period culminates
in a cross-disciplinary seminar where the students
are evaluated on their problem solving ability along
with learning from the exercise regarding cross-
disciplinary linkages, the importance of the context
in dening sustainable development challenges, and
key management issues.
Pedagogical tools
The choice of pedagogical tools is based on the
principle of active learning which focuses on a strong
conceptual understanding. This comprises classroom
lectures, case studies, eld visits, term papers,
assignments and tutorials, a large number of guest
lectures by practitioners and experts, seminars and
discussion forums, and role plays.
In particular, case studies, drawing from real-world
sustainability and management challenges, are
designed and integrated into the curriculum. The
faculty, along with professionals and development
organizations are encouraged to collaborate in the
preparation of case studies. These case studies,
along with the eld exposure planned during the
Summer Internship and the Major Research Project
provides relevant context to the curriculum in this
programme.
