It is my long-term objective to make a lasting impact on society. A dream as ambitious as this requires unparalleled passion, relentless hard work and above all, the right set of tools - a right mix of technical knowledge and business thinking. Management studies was a part of my engineering curriculum. As a course that I thoroughly enjoyed and excelled in, it piqued my interest in the field of management studies. I realised that developing managerial skills would help me see the big picture and to understand the functioning of an industry and different business models within it. This, in turn would help me blend in to an organisation better and identify opportunities, potentially driving innovation. And thus goes my decision to study management studies.

The day started at 8:00 am just like any other day. It was the second day of our regular class and I was late for breakfast. I decided to skip the breakfast and directly went to the class. We all were very excited to meet our new professors. It was the operations class and the professor entered the class at 11:10, 5 minutes early. He introduced himself to us.
The best thing about IIM Raipur is the wonderfully talented batchmates I got in the extremely diverse batch. I would attempt to introduce some of them:
The uniqueness of my campus is the diversity in the campus. In due course of few days, the most awestruck thing I found is standard deviation of diversity this place has.
