The Department of English and Cultural Studies will be holding the Alumni engagement session titled “From Classroom to Career” on 26th September. Moving away from the structure of a formal panel, the session promises a relaxed, conversational format where students can ask candid questions and hear honest, unscripted reflections on life after college.

The resource person for the event is Ms Krishna Pillai, an alumnus who now currently works as a research intern at IIM, Ahmedabad. She will be sharing her career journey and the challenges of transitioning from academic life to the professional world. The informal setting is designed to encourage genuine dialogue, giving students the space to connect their own aspirations with real-world experiences.

The event forms part of the department’s continued effort to strengthen ties with its alumni community and support students as they prepare for life beyond the classroom. Students can look forward to a session that promises to be relatable, motivating, and refreshingly honest.
