Retail is one of the largest industries world wide. Currently in India, the retail industry has been recording stupendous growth over the past few years. India boasts of the largest network of retail outlets in the world. Although, a major proportion of this industry is unorganized still, trends are fast changing. More and more retailers prefer the organised system of work and thus professional management is becoming the need of the hour. Retailers look for professionals with conceptual understanding of retailing and practical skills to analyse, interpret and solve the contemporary problems and issues of business management. The course imparts knowledge of product and retail markets, retailing processes and systems, national and global perspectives of retailing, consumer behaviour, and information technology application.

LEVEL 1: Knowledge, Skills and Concepts

For a base, the specialist functions in retail become known and the various concepts and approaches governing their operations become established.

LEVEL 2: Application and Practice

The student begins to integrate the previous functional learning to understand how organizations devise and execute retail and operations strategy. A variety of applicative opportunities arise to bring out the significance of  the interplay between individual functions to lead to a holistic understanding of the retailing provision. Diverse management skills form the backbone of learning. Industry internship transforms the classroom experience into a realistic appreciation of the inner and outer behaviours and performance of retail organisations
