MBA Experiential Learning

Experiential Learning is an active and engaged learning process, often described as “learning by doing”.  It involves immersive educational experiences where learners actively engage with real-world challenges, projects, or activities relevant to their field of study or professional development. These experiences bridge the gap between theory and practice, empowering learners to develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills essential for success in their academic and professional journeys.
