Low quality of education in higher levels is increasingly becoming a cause of concern. Though lots has been written about the factors required to increase the quality of our business management institutions, much research has not been done into the other aspects of business schools such as related to the course content, teaching learning process and the basic methodologies of lecture delivery and understanding of the student’s needs and physical infrastructure. In particular by improving the quality in higher education, Indian business management schools may make themselves competitive in the long run. In this paper researcher has tried to study the mindset of current management education aspirants. The samples of 100 students were obtained; Frequency analysis and percentage analysis methods are used for the analysis of data. This paper concludes with the result - Management institutes must try to develop their quality as good as premier institutes in India.

It requires skilled and motivated teachers who are competent enough to deal with the complexities in the classroom.

    An Overview of the Effective Green Process for Nanopartical Synthesis and its Uses

    Get PDF
    Nanoparticles have drawn a lot of attention because of their special qualities and wide range of uses in industries including electronics, medicine, and catalysis. However, hazardous chemicals and energy-intensive procedures are frequently used in conventional nanoparticle synthesis methods, which raises manufacturing costs and pollutes the environment. As a result, the necessity for effective and environmentally friendly green ways of synthesising nanoparticles is increasing.This presentation focuses on a cutting-edge green approach to nanoparticle manufacturing that consumes less energy and environmentally favourable materials. To aid in the creation of nanoparticles, the process makes use of plant extracts or bio-waste products as stabilisers and reducing agents. Rich in phytochemicals or biomolecules that can effectively bind to and decrease metal ions are the plant extracts and bio-waste products

    A couple of years ago, people had a limited social circle. In this century of evolving technology, it has become easier for people to socialize on a large scale via social media. There are several methods in the existing social networking sites where friend recommendation is based on pre-existing relationships like mutual friends, geographical distances, etc. This is not best way to suggest friends based on recent social findings. Hence we have developed a friend recommendation system that recommends friends to the user based on the lifestyle vector.
