GIM
works towards enabling its students to learn better through
innovative learning techniques. The style of class is participatory,
thus being an impetus in enhancing student capabilities. Teamwork
is strongly emphasized, through interactive and group learning,
which increases participation and helps maintain student involvement.
Students analytical skills are tested through problem based
cases, whereas the question and discussion periods and debates
help stimulate thought. Visual and computer based instruction
