Directors Message

Bhavesh Patel, Ph.D.

Director, School of Petroleum ManagementPandit Deendayal Petroleum University

As petroleum industry is on its threshold in India; and the

need for petro technicians and petro managers is rising

exponentially, we at the School of Petroleum

Management (SPM), Pandit Deendayal Petroleum

University, Raisan (Gandhinagar), Gujarat envisaged theincreasing needs for well-trained petro managers and

started the Masters in Business Administration

programme with a focus on energy sector in general and

hydrocarbon in specific. First two batches of petro

managers that we graduated from SPM got full placement,

which is evidence that the industry needs trained petro

managers.

We at SPM recognize that a professional programme in

management at postgraduate level must equip students

with clear concepts in every functional area of

management. Understanding of unique nature of

hydrocarbon industry and associated eco-political issues,

and exposure to real life industry practices are equally

important for a successful managerial career. Along with

knowledge and understanding of industry, one would also

need several soft skills. The curriculum at SPM are

carefully designed and delivered to impart conceptualknowledge, provide in-depth understanding of industry,

and enhance soft skills capabilities. Full-time residential

requirement and two years of engaging co-curricular and

extra-curricular activities also add value to the

personality development of our students.

Our dedicated team of full-time faculty members - who

are actively engaged in case writing, research and

publication - takes deep interest in s haping young minds.

We are fortunate to receive great support from the

industry. Experienced industry managers volunteer in

large number to help us in admission of students,

designing curriculum, course development, teaching and

case writing.

Fast growing library with large number of books, journals

and other resources, physical and online, satisfy our

students thrust for knowledge. Computer lab and otherphysical facilities on our campus provide a backbone for

creating a healthy and convenient learning environment

for teachers and students. Modern hotel, sports and other

facilities make campus life quite liveable, enjoyable and

interactive, all conducive to learning and enriching

experience.

If you want to pursue a lucrative management career in

the fast growing energy sector the School of Petroleum

Management of PDPU is one option that, I am sure, you

would consider very seriously. You are welcome to visit

our website and also our campus.5

and is globally recognised for its impeccable

performance record.

the part of curriculum. Some elective courses

include Logistics in Oil and Gas, Project

Management, Accounting and Taxation Issues in

Oil & Gas Sector, Financial Issues in Energy

years in six trimesters, with an intensive

industrial training in the summer after the first

year. The GSPC group, being a promoter

backgrounds, which help them to examine

managerial issues of the Oil & Gas sector from

multiple perspectives. In addition, an

students. Some of the unique characteristics of

our students include academic excellence,

leadership potential, willingness to change and

also make change, and a deep rooted respect for

all cultures and values.
