Resources
MRC publishes a magazine called Zephyr, which is written by the students for students. The magazine is printed once every semester. We believe it can enhance employability by offering a free medium to advertise businesses run by our students. More importantly, Zephyr has an entrepreneurial column, where students who already run their businesses discuss their journey to starting a business, thereby encouraging and inspiring others to work on similar interests.
The college provides you with a serviced office (work space, office desk, computer and telephone) to develop your business idea for the first six months at one of it campuses.
MRC Angels
College regularly organises the MRC Angels competition. This requires a full year of preparation and continuous personal and professional development of the participants. The College provides all resources and guidance, mentoring, and help to prepare the students for the competition.
In the second stage of the competition, College offers free training workshops to all participants to cover all areas of business development. These workshops are offered by industry specialists. The event is meant to enhance student employability and entrepreneurial skills. There are external business community engaged in the event, who provide mentoring throughout the programme. This also creates networking opportunities for students.
