It was over. Life as I had known it for the past many months. She was my end and my beginning. I had given up on so much – soccer, socialising, cigarettes – just because she had demanded so.
When I finalised my Business school admission, I was curious about what Business School students end up doing during first few months of business school life. I headed to MISB Bocconi to find out how my new classmates are. The novelty week was just about finding my feet, but discovered that getting acquainted with new classmates in a relatively relaxed atmosphere is a great way to start building your network! You never know who might be instrumental to your post-MBA career. This networking got me in touch with two of the talented classmates from the crop of my peers. Studying together and hanging out post classroom sessions became an ordeal.
MISB Bocconi isn’t just about 9-4 classes and guest lectures. We have 6 extremely active and well performing clubs where students learn and practise the field of their choice through various theoretical and practical opportunities presented by the clubs themselves. Here’s what the current members of the six clubs have to say about each:
It's 4PM and you’re dying to just get out of class so you can do that epic Bollywood run in fields of daisies towards your best friend from the other class and into the outside world. Okay maybe not that dramatic, but here’s what your life post 4 PM in Powai is going to look like through the week.
C. K. Prahlad said in his path breaking management book, Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid, that when the poor at the BOP are treated as consumers, they can reap the benefits of respect, choice and self-esteem and have an opportunity to climb out of the poverty trap. At SPJIMR, we have some different modus operandi for the same.
Social Awareness Committee (SAC) is student-driven committee introduced newly in 2016-18, under the ADMAP (Assessment and Development of Managerial & Administrative Potential) non-classroom learning initiative of SPJIMR. It is run and managed by 11 students of first year PGDM and they are mentored by three faculty members- Dr. K G Karmakar, Dr. Surya Tahora and Dr. Sheila Roy. The students get to capitalize on the myriad experiences of their mentors in fields as vast as rural/agricultural credit and Vedanta philosophy during the brainstorming sessions of the committee work.
So round one is over and this one may have gone towards you, but believe you me this was the easy part (as astonishing as it may sound) and the tough part starts from here on.
