Project SANSHRAY in collaboration with PRATIGYA.
It fills our hearts with immense pleasure to announce that the Department of Management collaborates with Pratigya in association with NHRDN Ranchi to bring "SANSHRAY" (Rekindling Hope) to the first event of Team Sustainability for the calendar year 2021-2022. At these exigent times where optimism is everything one needs, the department, with the help of Pratigya, chooses to be a guiding light for making a comprehensive endeavour as a civil society.
Sanshray aims to provide the best career counseling for children to make informed decisions about their career paths. When the families are worried and skeptical, personalized career counseling services will help the earning members gain confidence and make the correct decisions for a stable career.
Due to this Covid pandemic, Sanshray will adhere to the new normal and would be conducted on an online platform till things become normal.
The post-COVID-19 era will witness a gamut of new job roles, which would demand a new set of knowledge, skills, and abilities. The event is an excellent opportunity for those who believe in changing where it is most needed.

On the auspicious day of Republic Day, The Department of Management, Birla Institute of Technology, envisaged new road to social development through its new arm Team Sustainability. The group which started with an initial 8-10 members, today has grown to a sapling of 30 budding managers and entrepreneurs. The team infuses the department and its fraternity with humility along with secular education. This contributes to the overall enhancement of personality with right values and perception. The team works in tandem with other organization and groups to uphold the principle of community development and ‘giving back to society’ and tries to make the community self-sustained. Though being a small arm, it has dreams worth millions. Team Sustainability looks forward to social change. The team is committed towards implementation of Sustainable Development Goals agenda 4.7 which promotes quality education for each child. The team tied up with a village school, H. H. High School, Brambe which is run by an alumnus of the department. The school has been chosen for UNESCO DICE program. UNESCO DICE is an ICT-based intercultural exchange project that connects children ages 12-15 and their teachers from around the globe. Students engage in dialogue with their international peers to enhance intercultural competencies such as perspective taking, respect for other cultures, openness, collaboration and intercultural communication. The students of the department were part of DICE and initiated the laptop sharing initiative with H. H. High School Students. The students played the role of mentors to nurture and inculcate the values driven by DICE into children. Students visited the school every weekend to teach the modules of DICE and every time they came back with a much deeper understanding of true nature of education. DICE was not only an education program for children but in process, the mentors too were educated, understood the meaning of cross-cultural diversity. Along with this the team is also associated with Unnat Bharath Abhiyan with support from other departments and visits nearby villages regularly in its implementation.
