AT
Ayushi Tiwari Posted On : April 25th, 2023
IIT Kanpur (2019)

My sister was a student in the Mathematics department at IIT Kanpur and her favorite professor was Professor Amit Mitra. He had many unique styles that made him the apple of everyone’s eye.

  • He would drop emails to students personally at the end of semesters commending them for their performance 
  • He would always regrade his papers to minimize any issues
  • Once, a mid-semester paper was more difficult than usual. He conducted research on the students who performed poorly despite being regular and asked for their feedback on how to conduct classes in the future. He also discussed the mistakes these students made and the possible solutions.
  • He regularly conducted quizzes to evaluate the students on a regular basis.
  • He is a very emphatic, approachable, and understanding professor who gives it all to clear the concepts
  • His mobile number is public and anyone can contact him

All these distinguish him from other professors and tutors of the department!

How does it feel like to be an alumni "NMite" of Narsee Monjee College of Commerce and Economics?

SS
Sulagna Shah Posted On : August 5th, 2021
Studied at Delhi University (2019)

One of my friends did his B.Com from Narsee Monjee College of Commerce and Economics. Since he now belongs to the alumni network, here are some of the things he had to share about his college.

  • Being there for 5 years, he describes his journey as something out of a dream. 
  • It was indeed a huge transformation for his personality and he gets appreciated by his colleagues and friends for being a part of it.
  • You would be surrounded by a knowledgeable pool of students and hefty rules like strict attendance criteria, etc. is an integral part of all-around development.
  • This may sound exhausting at first but you get ample opportunities and time to bond with your friends.
  • He always loved the fact that people were able to recognize his college and its reputation, just by the name.

As you step out of college and meet the fierce real world, your reputation works only when you work hard enough. Fortunately, being a part of NM, all of his friends were fearless and prepared to face challenges due to the tough regime and discipline they learned. On top of that, the name itself is a matter of pride for NMites any day.
