Nagaland University convenes alumni meet
Nearly two decades after the launch of its first Master of Business Administration cohort, the Department of Management at Nagaland University brought together generations of graduates for its second alumni meet, convened by the Department of Management Alumni Association (DoMAA) at Noune Resort in Chümoukedima on Saturday.
In his speech, Dr. Ditalak Mpanme, Assistant Professor, Department of Management, Nagaland University, recalled that the department began modestly on a temporary campus with only two faculty members and limited infrastructure. Over the years, it has grown steadily and has now produced 16 graduating batches.
He further noted that the department presently offers PGDTTM, PhD ESBM, EMBA, and PhD programmes in addition to the MBA.
The gathering was attended by N Venuh, Pro-Vice Chancellor of Nagaland University, Kohima Campus, who commended the alumni association for convening its second reunion.
Reflecting on the evolution since its establishment in 2007, he recalled its modest beginnings and steady rise, noting that sixteen batches have since entered diverse professions. He announced that a permanent building with upgraded infrastructure is expected within two years.
As guest of honour, L Dorendro Singh, Assistant Registrar at NIT Manipur, spoke of the department’s formative years, shaped by limited resources but strong resolve. He highlighted its academic expansion including doctoral and postgraduate diploma programmes and urged alumni to anchor their professional lives in honesty, responsibility, and helpfulness.
The formal proceedings began with a welcome address by Kekhüsezo Zao, president of the association, followed by the general secretary’s report presented by Asani Eshena. An obituary segment, led by Neisal Theyo, was observed in remembrance of departed members.
