INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

At the FMS Information Technology Group, the intention to keep our institute at the forefront of technology applications in management education. This implies constantly innovating, evolving as well as adapting to changing realities.

We take a broad approach that not just involves the computer center in the faculty, but the infrastructure backup in the libraries, class rooms, hostels, video-conferencing facilities and the Internet. Faculty, staff and students play crucial roles in identifying needs, embracing new technologies, and using applications in creative ways. We harness the role of technology as a critical enabler in all our operations and hence the team includes representation from the all the student societies, recruitment & media team along with core faculty support. An indication of this is the website which has set up a virtual FMS community to link the FMS diaspora and leverage its enormous strengths.

Our Philosophy

The idea is to use computers as a strategic enabler to achieve the larger objective – more resources at the student’s hands making IT a normal part of life in a cost effective manner.

Computer Hardware Infrastructure

FMS has the among the most modern, state-of-the-art computer centers with over 200 computer systems (Pentium III & Pentium IV) in its north campus facility. Along with this computers are available in the library, class rooms and lecture theaters while faculty has individual computers and laser printers in their rooms. For use of the societies - computers and laptops have been provided at the newly designed Management Science Association (MSA) Center. The computer to student ratio is amongst highest in any institute in the country. The entire campus has a Switch based Local Area Network (LAN) operating under Windows-NT. The students can work on various platforms such as DOS, Linux, Windows-95, Windows-98 and Windows-NT. The entire campus is fully networked via a 256kbps leased line internet connectivity. The hostel rooms are also connected to this through the leased line facility provided by the University via the centralized server.

Video Conferencing infrastructure has been setup this year. This would further facilitate the interaction with the international business schools with whom we have ongoing collaboration.

The systems are supported by high speed network laser printers, Scanners and CD writers. The centre is equipped with variety of software such as Windows, MS-Office 2000, SPSS 10.0, Lotus SmartSuite, Corel Word Perfect, Harvard Graphics, Oracle RDBMS, Visual Basic, Visual C++, etc. A number of business and management software and business games like Business Simulation, Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management, Quantitative Analysis, Multi Dimensional Scaling etc. are also available in the centre. The students can also make use of a variety of CD-ROM based databases, corporate databases such as CMIE’s PROWESS, VANSCOM Database and Vans Electronic Library. FMS also has a well equipped computer centre in the S.P.Jain Advanced Research Centre, South Campus.

Online Initiatives - Website

The website is designed as a portal for the FMS Diaspora as well as a knowledge site for the management students, professionals and academicians. The site has community pages for individual batches from FMS, faculty resources, an online knowledge database of management articles as well as online resources for the various societies and clubs.

One of the main design intentions was to help increase the interaction between the various full time as well as the part time courses, as well as the students spread across the two campuses. For this website provides general online resources as well as virtual community spaces.
