Introduction: The faculties of management colleges play an important role in changing the lifestyle of the students and introducing them to the corporate world through various projects. Faculties are the backbone of every institute and regular interaction with them keeps us connected to the corporate world.

 

Objective: To understand the interaction between students and faculties at Management Colleges aims to achieve several objectives. These include promoting a deep grasp of subjects, refining critical thinking through engaging discussions, offering guidance for academic and professional development, honing communication skills, and fostering a collaborative learning atmosphere. This dynamic interaction seeks to provide students with a well-rounded education, blending theoretical knowledge with real-world applications, thereby preparing them to thrive in the ever-evolving realm of management.

Literature Review:

Role of Student–Faculty Interactions in Developing College Students’ Academic Self-Concept, Motivation, and Achievement.

Meera Komarraju (2010) says that Student-faculty interactions play a pivotal role in academic self-concept, motivation, and achievement. Encouraging close relationships between students and faculty yields benefits for colleges. While formal classroom interactions are common, informal engagement leads to greater student motivation and involvement. These interactions influence students’ attitudes and values, impacting their success. (Komarraju, 2010)

Influence of student-faculty interaction on graduate outcomes of undergraduate management students: The mediating role of behavioural, emotional and cognitive engagement

Sabina Baniya Chhetri, (2021) says that Student-faculty interaction is crucial for career decision self-efficacy, employability perception, and student satisfaction in higher education. This study addresses the lack of research on this topic in a developing country. Examining 921 business students shows that such interaction enhances employability perception and satisfaction, mediated by behavioural, emotional, and cognitive engagement, particularly emotional engagement. (Chhetri, 2021)
