1) Tell us something about your academic journey.

I completed my schooling from Aster Public School, Greater Noida and B.Tech (Mechanical
Engineering) from Utter Pradesh Technical University in 2014. After my graduation I opted to do
MBA.
My MBA Journey at MYRA has been rigorous and transforming. Each subject required numerous
pre reads, case preparation, presentations, submissions and exams, to be completed in a span of
just two weeks. The finest faculty from across the world motivated me to stick to the schedule and
deliver to their expectations. The experience and learning from these form of teaching method was
immense.
2) Was an MBA always a part of your academic agenda? How did this shift from engineering
to management happen?
I always wanted to be a part of the engineering cadre of the Indian Navy. Therefore, Mechanical
Engineering was an obvious choice. Throughout my engineering I was very persistent to turn my
dream into reality and was almost successful in doing so. But destiny had some different plans
and I didnt get through. During my engineering, I came across few subjects in management. I was
very keen to learn more about it and a MBA was an obvious choice.
3) How did MYRA happen to you?
I came to know about MYRA through web portals while searching for a good MBA program abroad.
I was amazed at the faculty line-up which MYRA had to offer. Being a new B-school, initially I was
very sceptical about it. But after interacting with the management I was confident that this school
will be a good choice.
4) Tell us something about your summer internship at Larsen and Toubro. How different is
classroom learning from learning on the job?
Larsen and Toubro was my first experience into the corporate world. It was a testing ground to
apply the class learnings and check whether the hypothesis holds true in the real world. My
internship was focused on market research for the new product development team. The project
required inputs from variety of industries spread across the country. My team successfully carried
out the project and provided the inputs for an important business decision.
All the classroom learnings at MYRA were a simulation of real world. My team was well prepared
for the challenges of the real world. Constant support from the faculty significantly helped us to
live up to the expectation of the organisation.
5) How has the course at MYRA helped you evolve over these 2 years? What is the best
part about the campus life at MYRA?
The faculty and curriculum has transformed me to a more confident person. Every course at MYRA
had a requirement to work in a diverse mix of team. Having no prior work experience, this gave a
snapshot of how to work and excel while working in a team, which is imperative for current
business scenario.
Faculty from top B schools of the world such as Kellogg, Arizona State University, University of
Cambridge, Wharton, IIMB, IIMA and many others following the immersion learning model and a
global curriculum, offered an incredible learning experience. The diverse mix of the cohort hailing
from different regions of the country was an added advantage.
6) Any advice for the incoming batch.
MYRA provides oceans of opportunities, with the global faculty and various student exchange
programs with universities such as Catholica-Lisbon, UWB and Julius Maximilian University of
Wrzburg etc. are few to name. Learning from the class room discussions, case studies, Insight
talks and workshops are immense. Hard work and dedication would be the key to excel and meet
your career goals. All the best!
