Manan who is currently pursuing a BBA in Marketing from Apeejay Institute of Management & Engineering Technical Campus, Jalandhar enjoys participating in social initiatives, making meaningful connections, and exploring every opportunity to learn something new.
“At college, I actively contribute to several student bodies, including NCC, the Human Resource Club, Finance Club, Marketing Club, the Entrepreneurship Development Cell, the Institute Innovation Council, and I also serve as a student journalist,” he added.
Sharing his thoughts on why he chose Apeejay Institute of Management & Engineering Technical Campus (AIMETC), he expressed, “It’s because AIMCTE has a reputation for excellence, being one of the first colleges in Jalandhar to offer MBA programmes. But more importantly, Apeejay stands for personality development, value-based education, and practical learning, factors that deeply resonated with me. I wanted to study in an environment that nurtures both professional competence and ethical character, and AIMETC offered exactly that.”
Values and Skills Unlocked
“My journey so far has shaped me in meaningful ways. I have developed a stronger sense of empathy, leadership, discipline, teamwork, and effective communication,” he emphasised further adding that every experience taught him how success is not only measured by achievements but by how grounded, humble, and compassionate one remains while achieving them.
What Makes AIMETC Special
According to Manan, “AIMETC stands out because of its holistic learning environment. The institute goes beyond classroom teaching and offers a range of developmental initiatives such as the Mentorship Program, Skill Enhancement Initiatives, Cross-Skilling Programs, Corporate Enhancement Programs, and the transformative LEAP initiative (Learn, Evolve, Achieve, and Prepare). These programs help students gain clarity about their goals, improve essential skills, and prepare effectively for the real world.”
Role of Faculty and Everyday Learning
Manan explains how the faculty at AIMETC plays a significant role in shaping key values. “They are more than teachers — they are mentors who guide, encourage, and inspire us. Through various initiatives, they have helped me understand the importance of integrity, discipline, empathy, and responsibility.”
He also mentioned, “I strongly believe in learning something new every day. For me, learning is a continuous journey — one that keeps me evolving and future-ready.”
