Information Systems Entrepreneurship and Family BusinessIT has been another domain where LMTSM has been a name to reckon with, given the rich combination of faculty,curriculum and pedagogy. With its rapidly changing business needs, the university has constantly worked towardscustomising the curriculum in order to be in synchronisation with the industry. The courses offered in this area havepractical relevance and aim at apprising the students of the various facets of this domain – technical, operational andstrategic. Some areas covered in this course include Software Project Management, Database Management System,Decision Support Systems and Information System Strategy. This approach of a well rounded curriculum, experiencedfaculty and learning through continuous exposure to the industry makes the students a unique combination ofknowledge and competency.

In this age of technology, the only thing constant is change. Evolution and innovation. At LMTSM, we say, this is the eraof entrepreneurship. The perfect haven for budding entrepreneurs. Which is why, special attention has been given tothe development of “entrepreneurship” as a specialisation.This carefully-crafted 2 year programme incorporatespractical applications with a rigorous, cutting-edge, research-based curriculum that plays a pivotal part in transformingyoung graduates to fierce and competitive entrepreneurs. Students are encouraged to develop potential ideas underthe guidance of highly experienced and renowned faculty, so that by the end of the course, each is aware on theprocess of raising a business venture. We believe that the critical factor in a start up's life is high quality mentoring andtimely investment. The typical subjects that students go through are Entrepreneurial Opportunity Identification, NewVenture Creation, Management of Risk and Uncertainty.

The institute also promotes taking up the case of various socially neglected sections of the society and using theconcept of entrepreneurship to uplift their status. Among these, special mention lies for the “adopt a village” initiative,taken by students as they stepped into the new Dera Bassi campus, flanked by underdeveloped villages on all sides,providing a tank-full of untapped opportunities. The overall aim lies in creation of new frontiers of knowledge anddevelopment of entrepreneurial and socially sensitive leader-managers committed to excellence and ethical standards.
