VPSM aims at becoming a leading institute in the domain of management education in India to begin with and in the world in the long run. To be a world-class business school, VPSM must have world-class faculty members who would be actively involved in discussing the contemporary and latest concepts in their fields of study with our students and publish their research work in the best journals in their areas. Apart from these two fundamental duties, they would also be encouraged in engaging with the industry and the society, the two main external stakeholders in the field of management education, in a number of ways.
Keeping the long-term objective of becoming a world-class business school with global recognition in mind, we invite faculty members to make VPSM an institute of eminence.
