NSE & MD University tie up to launch MBA (Financial Markets) and BBA (Financial Markets)
New Delhi: The National Stock Exchange (NSE) & Maharshi Dayanand University (MDU), Rohtak have signed an agreement to launch a two year MBA course in Financial Markets and a three year BBA course in Financial Markets for the forthcoming July-August session.
Students will have the option of either doing a distance education course or a course, in which they can train in a financial sector company for four days in the week and do classroom training for 2 days in the week. This will help students to learn effectively on the job and make them more eligible for the job market.
The Maharishi Dayanand university has nearly 490 affiliated colleges for classroom training and more than 1000 extended learning centres for distance education.
Students who study the MBA course will also have to appear for 15 modules of NSE's NCFM or National Certification in Financial Markets. BBA students will have to qualify in 8 NCFM modules as part of their course. The NCFM modules are widely recognized in India as a necessary criterion for employment in the financial and capital markets space.
MDU students who qualify in these NCFM modules will be given industry skill certificates by NSE. The university will also factor in the marks given by NSE for these modules in the final grade given to the students for the MBA or BBA courses.
The National Stock exchange's MD and CEO Mr. Ravi Narain said "Educating the youth on financial issues has been a key focus area of NSE for many years. The exchange has conducted hundreds of seminars on financial literacy, to bring more people into the financial mainstream. This is another step in that direction to train the youth and empower them to take sound financial and investing decisions."
NSE will train the faculty of all the affiliated colleges and study centres of MDU and will send trained industry professionals to deliver guest lectures in these colleges.
Apart from training the faculty, NSE will provide a mock investment, trading and portfolio management software, so that students can develop essential skills for financial markets.
It is estimated that 62 lakh professionals will be required by the BFSI sector by 2022, but there is a huge shortfall in this target. These courses will help employers to find youth with the requisite skil
