The subjects are the bases for our carrier from which we can strengthen our knowledge to apply it in real world. The GCSR project provides the platform of opportunity to know the current market situation, various factors affecting the industrial and economic performance and the behavior of environment. It gives the opportunity where we can apply the theory knowledge in real world and so that we can be a successful manager in future. This changed the market structure, character and focus of marketing strategies. MBA is a course where unlike many other courses practical studies are accompanied together with theoretical studies, case analysis and preparation of various reports, giving presentations on various topics are a vital part of the practical studies in this course. The preparation of the GCSR is one such part of the practical studies here. For this purpose we are required to select one particular topic related to a country or trade and prepare a report through study research. As the student of management it is learning experience to analyze a trade. It is the most essential for us to expose our skill as a future responsible management post. So, we have decided to go for detail study of country “United Arab Emirates”.

  • Before the Emirates: an Archaeological and Historical Account of Developments in the Region C
    Before the Emirates: an Archaeological and Historical Account of Developments in the Region c. 5000 BC to 676 AD D.T. Potts Introduction In a little more than 40 years the territory of the former Trucial States and modern United Arab Emirates (UAE) has gone from being a blank on the archaeological map of Western Asia to being one of the most intensively studied regions in the entire area. The present chapter seeks to synthesize the data currently available which shed light on the lifestyles, industries and foreign relations of the earliest inhabitants of the UAE. Climate and Environment Within the confines of a relatively narrow area, the UAE straddles five different topographic zones. Moving from west to east, these are (1) the sandy Gulf coast and its intermittent sabkha; (2) the desert foreland; (3) the gravel plains of the interior; (4) the Hajar mountain range; and (5) the eastern mountain piedmont and coastal plain which represents the northern extension of the Batinah of Oman. Each of these zones is characterized by a wide range of exploitable natural resources (Table 1) capable of sustaining human groups practising a variety of different subsistence strategies, such as hunting, horticulture, agriculture and pastoralism. Tables 2–6 summarize the chronological distribution of those terrestrial faunal, avifaunal, floral, marine, and molluscan species which we know to have been exploited in antiquity, based on the study of faunal and botanical remains from excavated archaeological sites in the UAE. Unfortunately, at the time of writing the number of sites from which the inventories of faunal and botanical remains have been published remains minimal.
