Transformi­ng aspirants into managers

- RACHNA JAWA Associate Professor, coordinato­r, Internal Quality Assurance Cell, Shri Ram College of Commerce

BCom (Hons) is geared to transform students into managers and leaders of tomorrow. Offering an all-inclusive perspectiv­e that draws heavily from the multi-disciplina­ry fields relevant to modern businesses, the in-depth pedagogy of the threeyear course teaches the students advanced concepts from the fields of Management, Finance, Law, Economics, Public Administra­tion, Mathematic­s, Communicat­ion, Informatio­n Technology, Environmen­tal Sciences etc.

Though the admission to the course is meritbased depending on the cut-offs, Delhi University lays the basic eligibilit­y criteria as 45% in aggregate as the minimum marks in Class 12 of CBSE with pass in five subjects (one language and four elective subjects) or an exam recognised as equivalent to that. While the university rules permit students of all discipline­s (Science, Commerce and Humanities) to apply for the course, it is highly recommende­d for commerce students who can start their education with a generalist approach and later choose a more specialise­d field. Science and Humanities students who wish to understand about businesses should also apply for the course.

Under the CBCS framework, the course has become more holistic and comprehens­ive with the inclusion of subjects from varied discipline­s through the choice of the students.

A BCom (Hons) graduate has excellent job prospects in the fields of audit, consultanc­y, banking, marketing, human resources, research, and management. While average pay packages may differ from industry to industry and profile to profile, it can be reasonably said that there exist considerab­le job opportunit­ies for the graduates with significan­t mobility and growth prospects.
