The Goa Business School is a 2019-launched school attached to the Goa University. It was set up following the amalgamation of four earlier-launched departments of the university—Commerce (established in 1988), Computer Science & Technology (1987), Economics (launched in 1968 through the Centre for Post-Graduate Instruction and Research at Goa and affiliated to then University of Bombay) and that of Management Studies (1988).

Purpose

[edit]

The amalgamation was intended to "allow the faculty and research students to discover new synergies that remained hidden within department silos, re-brand and showcase [Goa University] strengths in research and teaching in these areas together."[1]

Programmes offered

[edit]

Its academic programmes include: M.SC. Integrated, Integrated MBA (Hospitality, Travel & Tourism), M.A. Economics, M.Com, MCA, MBA, MBA (Executive), MBA (Financial Services), M.Phil (Computer Science), M.Phil (Economics), M.Phil (Management Studies), Ph.D. Commerce, Ph.D. Economics, and Ph.D. Management Studies.[1]

IT Summit

[edit]

In October 2019, the Goa Business School IT Summit (GBSITS) was organised at the Dr Shyama Prasad Mukharjee Indoor Stadium, Taleigao.[2]

Early studies

[edit]

Some early work which drew media attention included local Goa-related studies looking at palm feni production being affected adversely due to a lack of toddy-tappers, the traditional workers who extracted toddy from coconut trees which abound in the area.[3]
