BIGGEST STRENGTH OF YOUR INSTITUTION
Today, Galgotias University is at the cutting-edge of learning and has gained immensely from a shared vision, an intellectually stimulating learning environment, inspiring leadership as well as state-of-the-art infrastructure. Far too often, deeper inquiry is squeezed into assembly line learning simply because the architecture of our learning environments fail to support the process. So at Galgotias, we have improved the intellectual spaces in the classroom and changed the focus from each student submitting to a series of tasks, to instead, finding their own path of learning. In my opinion, our core strengths are a holistic and coordinated approach towards the attainment of unified goals and objectives for the institution.
CHANGES LIKELY TO BE MADE IN YOUR INSTITUTION
Adequate thrust on building practical skills and technical support has always been amongst our priority areas. At the same time, our constant endeavour must be towards reinventing new methods and processes for maximising productivity.
PROUD MOMENT OF YOUR INSTITUTIONS
Galgotias University is one of India’s top ranking private universities that has recently received ‘A+’ accreditation with the highest NAAC score of 3.37 out of 4 in its first accreditation cycle for its academic excellence, innovative faculty and the advanced research system. Galgotias School of Business has clinched notable positions in the Times B-School Survey, ranking 3rd in UP for placements, 6th among Top 40 Private Universities, 8th in the North Zone, and an impressive 16th overall.
YOUR PASSION
I am passionate about learning new things for broadening my intellectual horizon. Self-learning is a precious gift one could give to oneself. The thirst and quest for knowledge is an expression which has been used very often, but their significance in life can’t be ruled out.
MY FITNESS MANTRA
I believe in striking a perfect balance in everything I do. Setting a timeframe for the task to be accomplished and strictly adhering to it definitely helps one to remain disciplined. It’s always the small consistencies that contribute towards long-term success in life.
YOUR VIEWPOINT ON SUCCESS
Success, for all its worth, is shortlived. One should be inward looking for experiencing tranquillity and bliss. Hard work, perseverance, dedication, honesty and self-learning must be a way of life.
MY LEISURE TIME
In my spare time, I love reading books on a variety of subjects. I write book reviews that often get published in leading magazines and newspapers across the country.
