Dr.
Prabina Rajib, Director, BIMTECH, while introducing the new batch of PGDMs with
the institute’s rich history said, “It is a proud moment for us today to
witness this ambitious group of diverse students embark on a transformative
journey with us. Looking ahead, the futuristic jobs/positions will require
business leaders who are handy with technology, and demonstrate adaptability
& creativity. Therefore, we are investing in both hard and soft
infrastructure. It has been our endeavor to provide our students with every
opportunity that a management student can dream of. Recently, we have revised
our curriculum in a significant manner with a large component of experiential
learning. We have signed a MoU with Singapore University, we are in a
discussion with a US-based company to start a center of excellence in block
chain, and we are also in discussion with Bloomberg to set up a Finance Lab.”
Imparting
wisdom to the in-coming batch of 2024-2026, Dr. Abhishek Tiwary advised the
students, “The road ahead is exhilarating and demanding. Focus on the core
skills, befriend data and technology and most importantly ask quality
questions. Get out of your comfort zones and build networks. My message to you
is just enjoy the process and before you solve the world’s problems, indulge in
some self-care. Be bold, be curious, and be the change-makers the world needs.
”
Addressing
the newcomers during his commencement speech, Maj. Gen. Rajesh Kumar Jha said,
“I’m humbled to be amongst the future leaders. Everything is a workplace and each
one of you is a leader. Learn to work in pressure and be adaptable. I believe
leaders should be authentic and have a strong character, for authenticity is
the cornerstone of a good leader. Success will not come to your doorstep. Do
not despair if there is a failure. Embrace humility with grace and do not
forget the sacrifices and contributions of your parents. ”
This
year’s boost in the enrollment number showcased, a relatively balanced gender
distribution displaying the unwavering commitment to fostering an inclusive and
diverse academic environment. The new batch includes students from domicile
regions, highlighting BIMTECH’s national appeal. The institute witnessed
students joining from Uttar Pradesh, Delhi NCR, Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal,
Bihar, and Punjab, as well as significant representation from Andhra Pradesh,
Maharashtra, Odisha, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Gujarat, and Assam.
