CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Pune Lavasa Campus

In today’s fast-evolving business landscape, academic excellence and technical competence are merely the baseline requirements for entering the workforce. The true catalyst for long-term career distinction often lies in an individual's executive presence, interpersonal maturity, and professional presentation.

The transition from the familiar, highly structured corridors of high school to the sprawling, dynamic environment of a university campus marks one of the most profound milestones in a young adult's life. For many, this leap is accompanied by a thrilling sense of newfound independence, but it is equally paired with an undeniable layer of anxiety. Suddenly, the comforting routine of school, where schedules are micromanaged and expectations are explicitly laid out, vanishes. In its place stands a vast, complex educational ecosystem that demands a high degree of self-reliance, proactive networking, and mature decision-making. For students stepping into a professional degree program like the Bachelor of Business Administration, this environmental shift is even more critical. In a premier business school setting, students are not merely viewed as passive learners; they are treated as managers-in-training from the very first day. Recognizing the immense pressure of this transition and th...

The energy in the room shifted instantly from quiet apprehension to sheer intellectual curiosity. To address this critical technological disruption, the School of Business and Management - BBA at Christ University Lavasa orchestrated the online forum, titled "Human + AI: The New Equation for Accounting." As the global financial sector races toward intelligent automation, the modern commerce curriculum faces an urgent imperative to transcend manual ledger training. Bringing world-class perspectives to the Lavasa Campus, the forum featured Ms. Presana Arikrishna, a distinguished lecturer, researcher, and educational innovator from Sunway University, who unr...

The crisp chime of the ceremonial bell cut through the quiet anticipation, signaling far more than the start of an evening gathering. As Sergeant-at-Arms Rtr. Rishab called the room to order, forty changemakers rose together, eyes fixed on the dais.

Organized by the Rotaract Club at Christ University Lavasa, the Installation Ceremony for the Rotary Year 2026–27 brought a formal and inspiring leadership transition to the forefront of student governance. In an era where empathetic, socially conscious changemakers are needed more than ever, this student-led milestone established a bold blueprint for ethical engagement and community action. With delegates and university mentors gathered in unison, the assembly represented a powerful convergence of vision, dedication, and institutional pride, setting a high standard for youth empowerment across the region. Di...

The digital timer ticked mercilessly down from thirty seconds, casting a sharp crimson glow across the high-stakes presentation hall as seasoned judges fired relentless questions about customer acquisition costs and unit economics. Unflinching under the spotlight, the student innovators stood their ground, defending market assumptions with razor-sharp analytical precision. In that electric crossfire of venture strategy and raw intellectual grit, weeks of midnight revisions coalesced into sheer brilliance. Taking on the prestigious national stage at the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB) for their flagship Business Plan competition, delegates from the School of Business and Management - BBA represented far more than routine academic ambition. In an evolving commercial landscape where emerging startups demand immediate viability rather than mere optimism, testing strategic models on IIMB's revered circuit was an intentional leap.
