How is it different from traditional educational model?

One of the biggest problems with the traditional education model is it works on the premise that one size fits all. As we know, in the current context where the world is heading, “one size fits all” does not work well in a college education system. Everybody learns differently.

When you apply the science of learning to the skills you want to learn, you increase the chances of succeeding at learning. It also speeds up the learning process as you are naturally developing the parts of your brain that learn the fastest. Our emphasis on developing cognitive skills helps achieve this.

Why life skills are equally important at this stage?

In everyday life, the development of life skills helps students to

Find new ways of thinking and problem solving.
Recognise the impact of their actions and teaches them to take responsibility for what they do rather than blame others.
Learn through their strengths.
Build on evaluation and analysis.
Learn collaboration as a value and skillset.
Build confidence both in spoken skills and for group collaboration and cooperation.

Why is it the need of the hour to change our mindset from the traditional way of thinking?

In today’s VUCA world, “jumping out of the pot of complacency & mediocrity” is becoming increasingly important to gear up for success. So let them jump while they have the energy by letting go of the status-quo at this stage

What further studies can I do after graduating from MEC, CEC or HEC?

What is the difference between BCOM and BBA?

If you’re good at crunching numbers or want to pursue a career in formal financial fields like CA then a B.Com can be a great choice as it is more theoretical and is a skill-based program. Though you can pursue an MBA after a B. Com, a managerial MBA is better backed by a BBA background, especially if further supplemented by solid post-undergraduate work experience, as a BBA program is more occupation based, it targets students who would either like to be tomorrows Entrepreneurs or Entry level Managers.

How are students trained for Hotel Management, Mass Comm, Journalism?

Our Extra-Curricular Activities are designed to help improve student soft skills . Like Business Communication Skills, Public Speaking, Media Content Development, Apprenticeship, Personal Grooming, Basic Business Etiquettes, General Awareness etc. These are the skills students are judged on when applying to schools without Entrance Exams.

What is your admissions strategy?

We are trying to recruit students who are capable of excelling in Sciences, Arts , Humanities, Commerce, and Liberal Studies . We want to prevent students with talents in these fields from being recruited into the wrong programs and careers. We use the help of personalized counselling to understand our potential students better and help place them in the right streams accordingly.

Specifically for Sciences ,we would like to attract students who would prefer to pursue a career in Engineering at NON-IIT Deemed Universities. Those looking for a Stress Free Environment to grow in the direction of STEM , while working on their soft skills as well.

We are not about numbers, but about the quality of service we provide to the recruited students. We are not looking to take in only the “Top” students from each school, but open avenues of growth for those who might be gifted in other ways than purely academic.
