Faculties

Aim

To coordinate Research in the form of Dissertations; provide Consultancy services on aspects pertaining to Defence Management to the three Services in the form of Project Studies; disseminate management information and impart instructions in Statistics & Research Methodology and also conduct Management Development Programmes for selected officers from Tri Services/ Friendly Foreign Nations.

In order to keep pace with the dynamic changes in employment of management tools in the contemporary world, a need was felt at the CDM to create an exclusive Faculty of Research and Consultancy. This faculty thus came into being in 1986.The faculty is engaged in the task of promoting contemporary management practices in the services and is devoted to undertaking research work in the field of Defence Management.
