And why only provide opportunities, the enthusiastic NR BBA fraternity will try to groom you in all possible ways so that you can hone your skills in your area of interest.

Whether it has been academics or cultural events, literary activities or social service endeavours NR BBA has given me exposure to all these fields. The only thing required of a student is the interest in a particular field and inquisitiveness to learn more about various things.

NR BBA helped me in achieving many of my dreams. It is one of the best management institutes at the UG level that provides quality education, good infrastructure and ample opportunities for self development. Various events and activities such as case study competition, quiz competition etc sharpen the skills of students and give them a platform to present themselves. Over the period of three years, NR has become a second home to me. Major credit for that goes to all the faculty members whom I approached in my bad times and they supported and encouraged me to achieve my goal. Today if I m living a successful comfortable life it’s only because of the support that I received from professors and the Director of NR BBA. Those 3 years of graduation are unforgettable for me. I wish all the success to the NRites.

When I hear the name of NR, I feel nostalgic. There are a lot of memories that I cherish about NR. Whether it was about getting the Best Student Award, attending lectures or enjoying Culfest, NR has its own place in my heart. It has played a fundamental role in shaping my career. Today, when I have started working as an assistant professor at Bhavnagar University I realize how much efforts our professors at NR put in for our future. They have motivated us and made us strong enough to compete with others. I am extremely grateful to NR as it has given practical exposure while teaching basic theoretical concepts. I am so attached to NR and the campus that I decided to complete my post graduation from the same campus.

‘Journey of a 1000 miles begins with a single step'.

After completing high school studies, there are various questions on our mind - Which course? Which college? Which city?; At the same time, we experience a mixture of emotions - Excitement, anxiety, nervousness & what not, of becoming a part of the best college in the field that we choose for ourselves. College plays a vital role in shaping one's overall personality. N.R.I.B.A does that in its true sense. It is THAT single step which I took. Right from Peons to the Director, everyone is ever ready to lend a helping hand in every possible way. The Faculty at N.R.I.B.A is its biggest strength; knowledgeable, wise & humble. They understand every student individually & deal with them on their own level to instil confidence. Be it studies or co-curricular activities, everyone is supported whole heartedly to excel in whatever they do. You can approach them anytime regarding any concern be it personal or professional.

To all the freshers joining N.R.I.B.A;

'Believe yourself and you will be half way there'. Wishing you all a bright future for the journey called Life. :)

Dream. Believe. Achieve.

The first thought that strikes me about NR is its faculty. They have a rich experience in their respective fields and make the subject matter interesting and easy to understand. They also play a role of mentor and provide valuable guidance.

At NR, emphasis is not only on academics. Students are encouraged to participate in various types of co-curricular and cultural events right up to the state level. Students are thus able to balance learning with fun. The campus gives you a perfect environment to study and enjoy your college days. The college has all the facilities like libraries, computer lab, reading room for the students.

To sum it up, with excellent faculty members and the facilities that college provides, NR BBA is a perfect college.

I still remember my first day at college. I was a student from Rajkot and was very nervous. I was awed by everything around me - right from students, professors, and atmosphere. And then we had our orientation session. At that time one of our faculty members, as if speaking to each student sitting in that auditorium, said “you are new for us and in the same way we are new for you. Each one of you must be having some special skills and these skills should be known to us. Remember one thing students, in this span of three years you should be known to us by your names and not by your roll numbers.” These words are printed on my mind.

I must say that faculty members here are the true pillars for all the success NR has seen. Once a student passes out from NR he/she is a completely changed person. They know the exact point where a student needs to improve and they polish the student so that he/she can excel in the outer world. The atmosphere at NR is very harmonious. Right from the Director to the faculty members, administration department and peons, all are always ready to guide us and help us out in any situation where we get stuck.

NR encourages each student in his/her likings whether it is related to curricular, co-curricular activities, cultural activities, sports, etc.

I am proud to say that I am an NRite.

(Class of 2013; Currently Entrepreneur)

I earned a Bachelor’s of Business Administration in Finance & Accounting from NR Institute of Business Administration. It provided me with a rock solid foundation and strong background for my future. The institution has helped me grow tremendously over the past 3 years and the growth that I’ve personally achieved is unparalleled.

Studying at NR is more than just gaining a degree - it includes developing a student as a better person and a professional allowing him/her to explore and better understand the real world. It provides students with a powerful combination of academic education and co-curricular work yielding important practical experience. The professors here are extremely professional, experienced as well as very inspiring. I have nothing but praise for the college and the professors for providing ample opportunities to me during my course work at NR. The aspects of my course that I enjoyed most during my study at NR were Case Analysis, Business Plan and the Quiz competitions along with the academics. These helped in honing my research and analytical skills and most importantly facilitated the instant application of my theoretical knowledge in the practical world.

All in all, I enjoyed the complexity of the course, the perfect blend of its theoretical and practical dimensions and most importantly the great time I have spent with my professors as well as my fellow students. It was a time that I would cherish for my entire life.

(Class of 2013; Currently Entrepreneur, Print Media)

Joining a college is one of the biggest decisions in a student’s life.

While I was just done with my 12th, I was sure of where I was heading. I chose NR because of the name it has earned and it proved to be a right decision, as it has given me all the support to shape my career. NR is a place where every student is treated equally. The hard work and time devoted by the professors is the main reason behind all my achievements. NR does not only focus on the academics, but also on different activities that help a student grow in his/her chosen field. It helps the students to find the right path and directs them to attain the highest goal. I would give credits to the college campus, professors and each and every person who belongs to the college for giving me the confidence and igniting the passion to start up my own business. The events like BBA Baazigar, Spandan, and music events made me understand all the management concepts in a practical setup. Over the span of three years I have realized that NR is not just another college where you would get your degree from, but also a right step towards a bright future.

I won’t ever forget the three memorable years I spent at NR BBA.

NR BBA, as an institution as rightly said by Avani ma’am, Director at NR, is an undergraduate management college that will prepare you for future management studies.

At NR, I got to see the strictness of professors for attendance, mastiyan on campus, guidance provided as and when required and an exposure to various non-academic activities at various institutes and universities across Ahmedabad and the State of Gujarat. NR has taught me a lot of things which makes it very easy for me in pursuing my Post Graduation.

From being almost zero in terms of what is going on across the globe, to gaining knowledge and taking part in Co-Curricular activities like quiz, NR backed me every time. For this I am thankful to the supportive faculty who helped me and my friends in participating in various events.

At NR BBA, the quality of learning is tremendous. At different levels, one can easily find oneself climb the ladder in terms of gaining knowledge and expertise in the field one wants to specialise in. The study at NR is not only restricted to theoretical or bookish knowledge. Through the industrial visits, case study competitions and seminars by experts, students can also gain some valuable practical knowledge.

NR, not only focuses on the Syllabus or academics but they also provide equal weightage to Extra Curricular activities like singing, dancing and dramatics.

To sum up, I would say that, one should grab the opportunity of becoming a part of such a great institution, where life takes one beyond academics.
