Well, my brother is currently enrolled in the DEM program. So, I can tell you about what he has learned so far and what was his experience as he’s still in the first term of the course.
About the course:
- The course format is a whip-up of courses that will help you comprehend the commercial implications of modern digital technologies.
- A full semester is devoted to live business simulation projects. The first term focuses on business topics that include operations, economics, and accounting.
- In addition, subjects like Statistics and Advanced Analytics are offered in the first term, laying the framework for future terms in which the emphasis would be entirely on digital technology.
- This is the first program in India where Design Thinking is taught as a full-fledged course over two terms by two industry stalwarts and academics who have previously taught at IIM-A, B, and K.
