Welcome to an exploration of my personal and academic journey at the Delhi School of Economics (DSE), a place that has significantly shaped who I am today. As an alumnus of this prestigious institution — part of the famed Delhi University (DU) — my experiences at D.School between 1997 and 2000 were transformative, and they continue to inspire my writings.
Embarking on the DSE Journey
Arriving at Delhi University in 1997, I was immediately immersed in a vibrant cultural mosaic. As I stepped into the historic Lecture Theatre at DSE, I knew I was about to embark on an intellectual adventure like no other. Professors like Badal Mukherji facilitated iconic sessions in microeconomics, embedding a passion for learning and curiosity that burn brightly in me to this day.
Life and Learnings at D.School
Beyond rigorous academics, the DSE experience was enriched by interactions with a diverse student body. Engaging in lively debates, sharing laughter over linguistic quirks, and bonding over stories are treasured memories I carry from this time. My linguistic adventures not only deepened friendships but also broadened my perspective on cultural diversity.
