It gives me immense pleasure to share my experiences with the department where I earned my master degree during the year 2001-2003. Department was not much in light till 90s. But then after with the increasing desire for higher education and demand for good quality of graduates in different fields, department also has adopted change in all respect. Previous year offered common subjects to all students. Whereas, final year offered four specialize branches in four major areas. I opted to pursue my masters with specialization in Marketing Management. I realized the importance of master degree during my final year of M.Com.

A small but memorable experience of marketing research exercise showed a preview of higher end education including M. Phil. & Ph. D.
