“Spread the bars, create the future, transcend horizon however far, at NMIMS everyone is a star” That’s my college anthem. The anthem strikes the right chord in in motivating us, young students to never lose faith in our goals. NMIMS gets the student psyche and that’s what makes it unique and stand out.
Which college gets to boast of alumni who applied the ABC of management taught to them, to their acting and directing careers. Yes, you heard that right, NMIMS has a rich alumni base ranging not only to CEOs like Richa Kar (Zivame),Ashish P Somaiya (Motilal Oswal), entrepreneurs like Sidhharth Sood (Founder of Wildcraft) but also famous directors like Vikas Behel( director of famous movie queen) and renowned actors like John Abraham.
NMIMS focuses not only on managerial teachings but also on creativity and innovation. And we can say this for sure when we have victorious students in competition staging not only to academics like Loreal Brandstorm and HUL Capre Diem but also sports, dance and theatre.
It goes an extra mile to deliver experiential learning platforms for the students. For example, “Mumbai Darshan” was a part of our orientation program wherein we were asked to perform 10 tasks (like enacting a DDLJ role in front of Maratha theater, giving ”Parsad “to strangers in Sidhhi Vinayak temple etc.) at the riddle quoted locations Mumbai wide, as a timed race, beating the Mumbai traffic and yet bringing out our best innovative selves. And all of it to give us a flavor of our hectic MBA life ahead, where we work and enjoy hand in hand and to spread the message of holding on to our innovations and creativity even in the most stressful times.
From 12 prestigious Bloomberg terminals and our very own investment fund run by students to distinguished professors like Mr Pritosh Basu, ex-CFO of Reliance, to name a few NMIMS is truly the most preferred place for a holistic learning experience. Located in the heart of the financial capital of Mumbai, it capitalizes on this opportunity very well. From corporate seminars, featuring distinguished speakers from all walks of life like Ms. Kiran Bedi, Mr. Raghu Iyer (CEO Rajasthan Royals) and the likes, to live corporate projects, NMIMS makes sure the students are graced by the best of the opportunities, which keeps us motivated to make it big by working harder than we can through the sleepless nights in this “city that never sleeps”.
Last but not the least, NMIMS truly believes in fact that a healthy mind is embodied in a healthy body, so it gives the students a world-class canteen, serving high-quality food ranging from home-cooked food to pastas and pizzas and also nutritional food options for diet enthusiasts.
With its world-class infrastructure housing luxurious classrooms, capsule lifts, indoor play areas, rich repository in the library, committees and clubs ranging from specialization specific like Finomenon or Not Just Marketing to clubs which provide a stress buster in between the hectic MBA life like dance clubs, theater, photography, NMIMS truly is a one stop solution for all your needs to grow as a person. It inculcates a holistic development in the truest sense.
Just one month into the college and I already see changes in me. From a person who always felt insecure about sharing the knowledge I possessed, I am becoming an active advocate of spreading all the knowledge one possesses to multiply it. And all this is possible only by the might of NMIMS.
NMIMS is truly the gateway to realize your dreams in this “city of dreams”.
Which ABG Company do you want to work at and why?
I intend to make the best of all these opportunities at NMIMS to realize my dream of getting into the private equity profile of Aditya Birla Capital Limited. Getting into the equity profile has been my dream after I started working with SBI as a Probationary Officer and was tasked with selling insurance products. I have always been curious as to how the firms chose the best equities to invest in. Aditya Birla Group as a financial giant, with ventures into all fields of finance like private equity, asset management, corporate finance etc. and a sound pedigree would be the perfect place holistic learning.
