During the fourth semester, the College to Corporate activity runs for four days, or 12 hours, and covers areas such as business communication, leadership, and interview skills.

A separate seven-day Seminar Series, totalling 21 hours, is organized once in each semester. Sessions involve working managers, entrepreneurs, and professors, with the aim of giving students structured contact with business issues and market research.

MBA students interested in developing a startup can also take part in an optional startup support program connected with the college's incubation activities.

Presidency Business Incubation Center

The Presidency Business Incubation Center (PBIC) operates as a college initiative focused on entrepreneurship and startup development among students.

Its work is organized around helping students develop business ideas, connect academic study with business and industry, and work through early-stage startup questions. Activities identified for PBIC include business planning seminars, entrepreneurship workshops, idea-sharing sessions, business competitions, specialized training, investor interactions, mentor matching, industry roundtables, co-working space, private workshops, founder discussions, and sessions with visiting specialists.

PBIC also identifies collaboration with Antarprerana Pvt. Ltd., Chitwan Chamber of Commerce and Industries (CCCI), and Chitwan Association of Industries (CAI). Its strategic arrangement with Antarprerana covers management support for the incubation center and links with entrepreneurship-related mentoring and networking.

For students interested in starting a business, this gives the college a structured activity outside the standard BBA and MBA syllabus rather than treating entrepreneurship only as a classroom subject.

Seminars, Professional Interaction, and Student Development

Seminars and guest sessions form a recurring part of the college's management activities. PCMS runs semester-based seminar series, national seminars, workshops, guest lectures, and international conferences.

These activities place students in settings where they listen to working managers, entrepreneurs, professors, and other speakers and discuss subjects that sit alongside their formal coursework.

The college also has a Placement Cell. Its role is listed alongside training for employability and professional preparation. The existence of the cell should be understood as a student-support function rather than a guarantee of employment after graduation.

PCMS also identifies an alumni network as part of its institutional activities.

Learning Approach

The academic setup at PCMS places repeated emphasis on participation rather than classroom lectures alone. Depending on the program, students take part in case work, projects, seminar presentations, mentorship activities, small-group interaction, workshops, guest sessions, research-related work, and professional communication training.

For BBA students, this accompanies a university curriculum that already includes management, finance, marketing, research, entrepreneurship, technology, strategic study, specialization, and internship. For MBA students, the approach sits alongside seminars, specialization courses, research methodology, and thesis work required by the PU curriculum.

The language lab is another named academic support feature, particularly in relation to communication skills. Specialized clubs, mentor-mentee activities, and project groups are also included in the BBA learning arrangement.
