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 program is structured to provide students with a well-rounded education, preparing them for diverse career opportunities in the corporate world, government, and entrepreneurship. The B.Com course of the college is rated amongst the top 10 in the country. (India Today, AC Nielsen Survey 2016).
