I am Dr. M. Maharaja, an academician and researcher in the field of Commerce, with over five years of teaching, research, and academic leadership experience. I hold a Ph.D. in Commerce from Manonmaniam Sundaranar University and have consistently worked towards integrating innovative pedagogy, research excellence, and technology-driven teaching practices in higher education.

My academic journey includes qualifications such as M.Com (CA), M.Phil., and Ph.D., complemented by continuous professional development through Faculty Development Programmes, NEP 2020 orientations, and AI-focused training. I have actively contributed to the academic community as a resource person, organizing secretary, researcher, and author.

My core areas of interest include Commerce education, research methodology, data analysis using SPSS & AMOS, artificial intelligence in teaching and research, entrepreneurship, and digital learning ecosystems. I strongly believe in student-centric learning and adapt my teaching strategies to suit learners’ diverse abilities.

I have published research articles in ISSN and Scopus-indexed journals, contributed chapters to edited volumes, and authored a book titled “Business Organisation” (ISBN). I have also presented more than 25 research papers at national and international conferences.

As a passionate educator, my mission is to empower students with knowledge, skills, and ethical values, foster a strong research culture, and contribute meaningfully to institutional growth. I continuously strive to bridge the gap between traditional commerce education and emerging digital and AI-driven practices, preparing students for future-ready careers.
