I find immense pleasure in presenting you Embark, the ED (Entrepreneurship Development) Cell magazine.

I request the Pumba-Onliners to go through the magazine and give us a feedback so that we can come back with a better issue.

I would also take the opportunity to request PUMBA alumni to contribute articles and enlighten the readers of Embark.

Thank you!

It is that time of the year when the Alumni Cell is once more, buzzing with activity. The Chapter Meets are just around the corner and the anticipation is palpable. We have been joined by a fresh new team overflowing with enthusiasm, ideas and energy, thus infusing new life into the cell. The invitation calling has begun in full swing and about 300 odd calls are being made every day.

Last year we were delighted with the turnout at the Chapter Meets at the various cities and this year too we are looking forward to welcoming an even larger number of Alumni.

We, students at PUMBA, have been doing a 8 day internship with Pune police. We will be working with Pune police for 8 days and would understand how they work. Objective of this mission is to reduce the negative impression of Pune police from the layman's mind and to bring police and public closer. And also to motivate pune police to work more honestly and with more enthusiasm. This program has been initiated by Pune Police Commisionor Ms Meera Borankar with the help of our Dean Capt Chitale.

Following is the Road Map of this internship.

With bated breath we waited for the first of the alumnus to show up for the event that was exclusively hosted for the Batch of 1990 – REMINISCENCE. Slowly but surely they came. Our aim was for them to relive their days in the university and hence the point of gathering was chosen as the University Canteen. The enthusiasm on meeting each other was there for all to witness. They greeted each other with hugs and names that, only, they knew the significance of. Breakfast for a typical student here is the famous vada pav or poha and that is exactly what they feasted on. This was followed by a walk through the winding paths of the University all the way to the campus of PUMBA.

How many times do you wish to go back to the good old carefree days of your college going years??? It is the truth of life that once you leave those gates and enter the cut throat world,you have to work hard to achieve that, what you had dreamt of. In this milieu,often, you lose sight of those that were once your best buddies. However it isprecisely for this reason that we exist. We are here to ensure that the bond between friends always remains unbroken. With this in mind we present to you Reminiscence.
