About the programme

In the context of today’s globalised economy, it has become increasingly important to develop an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the contemporary business environment and our B.Com course has been streamlined to reflect just that. Its aim is to construct a strong foundational grounding in core subjects such as Accounting, Taxation, Economics, Statistics, Auditing, along with a choice of Cost accounting, Finance, Marketing and Human Resources, studied in the fifth and sixth semester. The course is challenging, yet, rewarding for students with high aspirations. Our students have been sought after by employers for their excellent knowledge, skills and attitude, giving them an edge over their peers from other institutions. The B.Com course of the college is rated amongst the top 10 in the country. (India Today, AC Nielsen Survey 2016).

• To provide conceptual knowledge and application skills in the domain of
   Commerce studies.
• To sharpen a student’s analytical and decision making skills.

   competitive to be assured of good careers and job placements.

Highlights
Students of this program will, in the fifth and sixth semesters, be given a
      choice of over 6 electives including subjects like international business
      and Banking and Insurance- each of which will have an entire skill based
      paper integrated into the theoretical content that is offered.
In order to expose students to a practical work environment, a
      mandatory corporate internship in a relevant field is to be taken up
      in the summer following the fourth semester.
Student seminars, workshops and conferences are organized through
      the even and odd semesters, with guest speakers who have experience
      in the contemporary business ecosystem.
Bridge courses in Mathematics and Accounting are conducted to enable
      students from other disciplines to be seamlessly integrated
      into the framework
They will be trained in Tally, Excel and Advanced Excel to be on par with
      industry standards locally and in the global arena.
Students connect meaningfully with the working world through regular
      field trips. These visits provide students a thorough understanding of
      business skills and cultural education to make a mark in the industry .
In addition, students are encouraged to join the college clubs and take up
      credit certifications that range from IFRS to theatre and languages to help
      inculcate essential soft skills and interdisciplinary exposure.
