B. Com (Hons)

One of the key factors that we develop amongst students is adaptability and hence, flexibility towards advanced training.

Knowledge is imparted by using an innovative approach towards lectures, giving on-the-job experience through internship and complementing classroom teaching by organising guest lectures and practical demonstrations relevant to gaining an elevated understanding of the subject in relation to its practical environment; thus providing a learning ambience that challenges the student’s mind through competitive education emphasising on inculcating values, and transforming them into socially responsible managers and business leaders.

Evaluation Criteria
