History Repeats: Our Student Bags 1st Rank in MCom

Ms. Prema Jayakumar is not a unfamiliar face in our college and University of Mumbai. Because, a couple of years back, she had made our college proud in TY BCom Exam by securing 2nd Rank to University of Mumbai. Now, the history of success repeated once again!!

Ms. Prema has secured FIRST Rank in M Com Exam to University of Mumbai. Indeed, this feat has made our college and the entire teaching faculty proud.

I was present in the Convocation Hall of the University recently to see my student being felicitated by the Vice Chancellor amidst all other rank holders and academicians. Ms. Prema was accompanied by her mother. The entire moment was indeed memorable as the girl from a very poor economic background achieved what everyone finds so hard to do so.

Congratulations to Ms. Prema, parents, friends and her teachers!!

Say Loudly "Our College is ISO Certified Academic Institute Now"

A Report:
The two days' audit took place on 28th and 29th of September, 2010. Our college chose TUV Nord, Germany's most reputed ISO inspection and certification agency, which audited our college. Two auditees, Mr.Bhupesh Rane and Mr.Sanjay Velankar, reviewed the quality status of every academic units and activities of the college.

All were gathered in the cool Conference Hall awaiting the Exit meet, with the auditees, to start!! Frankly, it was a nail biting situation yestarday evening!! The lead auditor, after sharing the positive and negative aspects of the task, announced eventually, "We recommend NK College for ISO recognition and now it's an ISO 9001:2008 Certified Institute". Trust me, there was a festival mood in the packed hall, everyone congratulating..shaking hands..hugging each other.

The success is indeed due to our most innovative Principal, Dr.Ancy Jose, ISO-Management Representative- Dr.Moushumi Datta and ALL our students and colleagues.

We thank all our students and colleagues for making our college proud!! Let us work together and grow together.
