Thank you again SDM college and the faculty. Always grateful to you!
The guidance and mentorship provided by the esteemed faculty, especially The Director, Ms. Seema S Shenoy were invaluable. They encouraged me to think critically, explore innovative ideas, and apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios. These interactions not only deepened my understanding of business principles but also instilled in me a passion for continuous learning and professional development.
Today, as an HR Business Partner for a group of MNCs in Qatar, I leverage the skills and insights gained at SDM College to drive organizational success. From designing talent acquisition strategies to fostering a culture of employee engagement and development, my education has equipped me with the tools to navigate complex HR landscapes effectively.
I would like to give special recognition to Dr. Seema Shenoy, my marketing lecturer who is now the college Director. Her guidance was particularly instrumental, especially her advice on balancing a career with motherhood. Her insights and encouragement were invaluable, helping me understand how to navigate both roles successfully.
The entire staff at SDM College of Business Management was incredibly supportive and friendly. Throughout my studies, I gained not only theoretical knowledge but also practical insights that have been essential for my professional development. The faculty's commitment to providing a well-rounded education and their real-world experience significantly contributed to my growth.
One of the most rewarding aspects of my time at SDM was the opportunity to make lasting friendships. The college's focus on the overall development of students was exceptional. We were given numerous opportunities and exposed to various inter-collegiate fests, educational excursions, and factory visits. These experiences enriched my education and helped me develop valuable life skills.
Now living overseas, I am always proud to say that I am a product of SDM. At SDM, I learned that being kind yet assertive is a crucial life skill.
One piece of advice from my experiences: while many people will offer you opportunities, it is up to you as an individual to utilize them effectively and strive to improve every day. A degree alone will not suffice in the real world; it is essential to maintain the quality, readiness, and willingness to learn while never forgetting your roots.
I am deeply grateful for the time I spent at SDM College of Business Management and for the lasting impact it has had on my life and career.
The teaching at SDM Post Graduate Center is nothing short of exceptional. The professors are not just educators but mentors who are deeply invested in their students’ success.

The curriculum is designed to be industry-relevant, preparing us thoroughly for the professional world. The unwavering support and mentorship from our wonderful professors were instrumental in my growth. They created an engaging learning environment that helped me overcome my stage fear
and develop strong communication skills. Preparing for the NAAC accreditation was a challenging yet rewarding experience, teaching us the value of hard work, dedication, and teamwork as we worked day and night to achieve our goals.
Events, fests, and conferences at SDM were always a highlight. Every occasion, from the vibrant Dandiya Night to various academic conferences, was a hit, fostering a strong sense of community and camaraderie among us students. The festivities were not only fun but also a great way to learn hospitality and event management. I owe a significant part of my success to the guidance and support of Dr. Seema Shenoy, our esteemed Director. Her incredible role in shaping my journey cannot be overstated. Her mentorship helped me navigate through challenges and emerge as a confident and capable individual.
SDM Post Graduate Center has truly been the place where I got all my life lessons, got rid of my stage fear, developed essential leadership, management and hospitality skills, and built a foundation for my future. I am grateful for every moment spent here and for the lifelong memories and friendships made. Thank you, SDM, for shaping me into the person I am today.
