Department of Accounting and Finance
Benjamin Franklin’s (among several of his brilliant statements), “No nation was ever required by trade” best illustrates the fact that commerce started when man set foot on this planet. As everyone knows commerce is a popular course. What with kanchipuram’s neighbourhood becoming the hub of business the city is getting transformed. No wonder there are opportunities for the right people and thus since the founding of the college in 2007 the demand for seats in commerce has been growing.
Therefore, to cater to the needs of demand a second stream in B.Com Accountancy & finance was started in 2011. Since then there has been no looking back. A healthy competition between the students of B.Com (General) and B.Com (Accounting and Finance) has made students more competitive. Of course, we do work in tandem and the spirit of bonhomie exists between the two streams. The vision of the department is to offer excellent education so that in keeping with the government’s policy of “make in India”, we are able to turn out entrepreneurs and not mere graduates.
