27

Continuous Evaluation
All students are evaluated during the semester as a part of continuous assessments. This includes assignments and two in-semester tests in every subject. This is an internal assessment component and has a 50% of the maximum marks in a subject. The internal assessment is computed as a sum of the marks obtained in the assignments and the sum of two in-semester tests. It is compulsory to attend both the tests. If a student misses any one of the in-semester tests, due to genuine reason (which is authenticated by the respective authority), university may consider conducting one make up test for such student.

Relative Grading
Marks obtained in the in-semester and end-semester examinations are added together and a relative performance / grading system will be used to award the student with an overall letter grade for the course. However the minimum marks required in each subject is kept as 40% to declare the candidate as eligible for relative grading in that subject.

Web Services
Keeping in mind the convenience of working professionals, following information / services is provided online: • Pre-enrollment services o Application / Brochure download • Post-enrollment services o Candidates regulation & attendance details o Registration facility (activation of student account) o Schedule (classes, assignments, examination) o Classroom material (PPTs etc.) o Examination results with marks details o Model question paper Corporate program offered by Manipal University is gaining popularity day by day as shown below:

Grade Point Average, (GPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)
Each course grade is converted into a specific number of points associated with the grade. These points are weighted in accordance with the number of credits assigned to a course. The grade point average for each semester will be calculated only for those students who have passed all the courses of that semester. The weighted average of GPA's of all semesters that the student has completed at any point of time is the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) at that point of time.

Another definition is that “A social and managerial process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want through creating and exchanging products and value with others." (Kotler et al., 2005). The basic idea of this definition is that core to all marketing activities is customer satisfaction, which means marketing is an ongoing process as consumer demands and the environment is constantly changing. Products need to adapt as demands change. At the same time, marketing does not involve misleading, tricking or manipulation the customer.

Background The term ‘‘marketing’’ is derived from the word ‘‘market’’, which refers to a group of sellers and buyers that cooperate to exchange goods and services. The modern concept of marketing evolved during and after the revolution in the 19th and 20th centuries. During that period, the proliferation of goods and services, increased worker specialization and technological advances in transportation, refrigeration and other factors that facilitate the transfer of goods over long distances resulted in the need for more advance market mechanisms and selling techniques. But it was not until the 1930s that companies began to place a greater emphasis on advertising and promoting their products and began striving to tailor their goods to specific consumer needs.

...Abstract In the world of today with rude competition everywhere, customers’ expectations have become higher than ever. It is not the customers who come towards the products but it is the products which should make their way to the customers. And for this, only competitive businesses that are able to stimulate customers’ interests survive in the market. Therefore firms need to increase customers’ awareness about their products or services to be able to pull and encourage them to engage in purchase of their products. And as such, the promotional mix used by a company is really important for this task. The promotional mix in itself is very broad, consisting of various tools, like advertising, personal selling, direct marketing, public relation and sales promotion. To make the optimum use of these tools, marketers usually select them, depending on their budget and objectives, as well as the sector in which they operate (Kotler & Armstrong 1997). As such, research has been conducted on the use of promotional mix and research questions and objectives have been set. The methodology which will be used has been devised.

...Marketing is the process of communicating the value of a product or service to customers, for the purpose of selling that product or service. Marketing can be looked at as an organizational function and a set of processes for creating, delivering and communicating value to customers, and customer relationship management that also benefits the organization. Marketing is the science of choosing target markets through market analysis and market segmentation, as well as understanding consumer behavior and providing superior customer value. From a societal point of view, marketing is the link between a society’s material requirements and its economic patterns of response. Marketing satisfies these needs and wants through exchange processes and building long term relationships. Organizations may choose to operate a business under five competing concepts: the production concept, the product concept, the selling concept, the marketing concept, and the holistic marketing concept.[1] The four components of holistic marketing are relationship marketing, internal marketing, integrated marketing, and socially responsive marketing. The set of engagements necessary for successful marketing management includes capturing marketing insights, connecting with customers, building strong brands, shaping the market offerings, delivering and communicating value, creating long-term growth, and developing marketing strategies and plans.[2] Marketing may be defined in several ways, depending on...
