Delhi School of Communication holds 22nd Convocation

NEW DELHI: Delhi School of Communication held its 22 ^nd Convocation with the graduating communication students winning various awards along with their Post Graduate Degree in New Delhi on April 14.

Pinaki Bhattacharya Sr VP, National Planning Director, J Walter Thompson distributed the Apex awards for Batch XXII. The bronze medal for overall academic achievement went to Aman Kapoor, the silver medal went to Kaustav Bauland the gold medal went to Seshadri Mitra. The most prestigious award – The Surojit Lahiri Award for Holistic Excellence went to Seshadri Mitra.

Observing that students are entering the communications workforce in very interesting times, Pinaki Bhattacharya said the disruption happening today in the business and communication scenario. “Technology is changing how consumers or audiences access and consume information. To navigate this rapidly evolving world of communications, one has to make sure that one never stops learning,” he said.

He advised students to be ‘collaborative’ in their career ahead to effectively put across their communication. “You have to be constantly ‘curious’. You will need a new workstyle which is more ‘collaborative’- because, with rapidly changing technologies, the only way to be on top of things is to keep working closely with different tech domain experts, because only one person cannot know it all. And you need to be ‘courageous’. Embracing the new, doing the never- done- before, is not for the meek. It requires courage and gumption.”

Prof. Ramola Kumar, Dean at DSC, closed the ceremony with a thank you note.
