“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step”- and our students have taken their first step towards their journey as a professional. The concluding ceremony for our specialized MBA & BBA programs marked the beginning of their careers ahead. For those who are going to continue their studies it was their formal goodbye to their alma mater.
