I would like introduce myself as a part of KCT Business School where the focus is on holistic development of each one of us. Our life here is a vibrant mixture of learning and application of it. We are realising our true inner potential and utilizing it to the optimum.
Here we are given a feeling of home away from home. Our faculties make sure that there is nothing that troubles us. Our innovations and ideas are appreciated and accepted, helping us grow better and more potent.
Output of our work is not judged by just our transcripts but by the way we percieve it. It is fun to start each day with a store of creative approaches to solve each query posed to us. Our interests in other activities are encouraged through leagues. And forums help us to practice many concepts that would have otherwise been between us and our books.
There is nothing that can replace this kind of an atmosphere designed to nurture budding transformational leaders
I'm doing MBA in KCT Business School. If you have any clarifications and doubts regarding admissions, exposure, projects, education, sports, guest lectures, symposiums that are going to be held in KCT School of Business, you can contact me. Hereafter I'll update the happenings in the KCT.BS.
