Break ke baad...

The summer internship break seems to have brought a conspicuous hiatus to the blog...

In life, at many occasions you feel “the circle” to be completing. In last few months a number of circles were seen to be completing right from the moment of joining the summer organizations. Summer internship, more or less, appeared as if we were serving the notice period to leave the organization for IIT Kanpur .The first lap of the circle...

The second lap of the circle could be seen while our interaction with a batch of new faces, of course with changed role. Batch 2014 was introduced to all the committees and activities that have become an integral part of MBA at IIT Kanpur.

Many laps are yet to be seen in the form of birthday celebrations which have already started.

Batch 2013 acted as a perfect bridge, and continues to do so, to pass down the prestigious legacy set by our distinguished alumni. The blog will see a change in terms of articles by new writers. Hope the change keeps us all enthralled as always.

The blog wishes batch 2014 all the luck.

P.S: Do not forget to have a sincere look at Avant Garde- The monthly newsletter of MBA at IITK

5 Lessons from MBA IIT Kanpur

1.      Learning is not confined only to classrooms As the first semester is over, I realize that apart from classroom subject matter, there are a lot more things that I have learnt here. Learning takes place in almost every aspect of one's life at MBA IIT K. The induction activities that our seniors conducted before the official start of the semester was a great way to interact with the batch-mates.
