The best college in commerce constantly innovates to offer students an unmatched learning experience
When 17-year-old Unnati Bose got through one of India’s most coveted colleges in Delhi University for a degree in economics, it was a dream come true. A newbie to the city and with a peer group that pushed her way beyond her comfort zone, Unnati realised early enough that Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC) won’t be any kind of cakewalk. An academic topper in school, she now found herself jostling for space among the achievers in class, but gradually realised her academic potential at this prestigious institution.
Three years later, months before her graduation, Bose, now 20, says she couldn’t have asked for a better educational experience. SRCC offered her the right ecosystem to channelise her creative and academic energies. As she now gets ready to join a consulting firm in the social sector, Bose fondly talks about her rapport with her professors and how small class sizes meant that students were able to work very closely with each other. “The kind of learning you have from your batchmates is very refreshing. The student group experience has been particularly enriching,” she says.
Staying true to academics while offering students varied avenues to apply their knowledge has become a hallmark of this 92-year-old institution that has produced leaders in the fields of politics, entertainment, films, business and more. From Union minister for finance Arun Jaitley to bigwigs in finance and economics, such as Ruchir Sharma, chief global strategist at Morgan Stanley, and YES Bank CEO Rana Kapoor, SRCC’s alumni boasts a list full of luminaries.
