This season, season 15, we plan to have 8 sessions on the 3rd Thursday (5.30 pm to 8 pm, preceded by light tiffin) of each month and a 2-day intensive bootcamp. Themes that will be covered are Entrepreneurship, Leadership, Tenacity, Professionalism, Spirituality, Growth mindset, Career building and more. The overall theme is “My Biggest investment – Myself”

Since the program is expected to have students from 20+ different institutions from diverse fields like Engineering, Medicine, Law, Agriculture, Arts & Science, Architecture etc, it will foster peer-to-peer learning. Students will also be provided a mentor with 20+ years of business experience to guide them through the year. At the end of the year, they will be awarded certificates and other prizes based on performance.

The only criteria is commitment and sincerity in attending the sessions (which will be calendared keeping in mind their academic commitments/exam schedules). They will be allowed to graduate if they show 75%+ attendance. Kindly also nominate one faculty who can be the single point of contact.
