IIM Rohtak marks 15th Annual Convocation
The Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (IIM Rohtak) hosted its 15th Annual Convocation on Sunday, celebrating the academic achievements of its graduating cohort. During the ceremony, the institute conferred MBA degree certificates on more than 300 students, BBA degree certificates on 66 students, and a PhD degree on one research scholar. The occasion marked a milestone in the institute’s journey of building leadership talent and strengthening its presence among India’s premier management schools.
Chief guest urges collective progress and resilience
Gyanendra Pratap Singh, Director General of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), attended as the chief guest and delivered the convocation address. Drawing on his experience in national security and leadership, he urged the graduating students to remain grounded, respect their teachers and families, and prioritise collective progress over individual success.
Singh advised the graduates to view a rapidly changing world – marked by economic shifts and geopolitical uncertainties – not as a source of fear but as an opportunity to build a more self‑reliant and resilient India. He emphasised that true leadership lies in taking responsibility, adapting to change, and contributing meaningfully to society.
He also highlighted the importance of holistic well‑being, encouraging students to focus on both physical and mental health. In an era of intense competition and constant connectivity, he stressed that self‑awareness, work–life balance, and emotional resilience are as critical as technical and managerial skills.
Director’s report on institutional progress
During the ceremony, Professor Dheeraj Sharma, Director of IIM Rohtak, presented the institute’s annual report, outlining key milestones achieved over the past year. The report highlighted improvements in academic programmes, faculty development, industry collaborations, and placement outcomes.
The Director noted the institute’s growing standing in national management rankings and its expanding role in policy engagement, executive education, and community outreach. He underscored the importance of innovation, research, and ethical leadership in shaping the next generation of managers and policymakers.
Degree conferral and institutional pride
The convocation ceremony included the formal degree‑conferral session, where graduating students received their MBA, BBA, and PhD certificates. The event reflected the institute’s commitment to academic excellence, diversity, and leadership development.
The 15th Convocation also served as a platform to recognise the contributions of faculty, staff, and administrative teams whose efforts have supported the institute’s growth. Students and alumni shared reflections on their time at IIM Rohtak, underscoring the value of a collaborative learning environment, mentorship, and practical exposure.
Looking ahead
As IIM Rohtak completes its 15th Convocation, the institute is poised to build on its achievements and deepen its impact in India’s management‑education landscape. With strong leadership, a focus on national challenges, ethical values, and holistic development, the institute aims to continue producing leaders who can drive innovation, inclusion, and self‑reliance in both the corporate and public sectors.
The ceremony concluded with a sense of optimism and purpose, as the graduating students prepared to apply their education to real‑world problems, guided by the values and insights shared during the convocation.
