NM Arthashastra, the annual fest of Narsee Monjee College of Commerce and Economics, Mumbai, offers students an opportunity to enhance skills and expand knowledge. The third edition of NM Arthashastra will be held from February 18 to 21, 2022, with Edugraph as the digital media partner.
The fest will include workshops and competitions in the finance, corporate, and culture domains.
With a boom in start-up culture and modification of the corporate structure, students are getting increasingly drawn towards industry simulative events and platforms to hone their skills, expand knowledge and learn from industry leaders and co-participants.
“NM Arthashastra aims to enhance skills through knowledge application. The objective of the fest is to provide a platform for learning and expanding knowledge. This is achieved by addressing the vacuum between theory and practical application. The festival commenced in 2020 with the focus of catering to students from cross-disciplinary backgrounds,” said Aksshat Arora, a third-year Management Studies student, who is the chairperson of NM Arthashastra.
