"Students will be encouraged to discover their own knowledge while keeping in mind that they should not limit themselves to a certain mantra for success, for there exists none. There is no secret sauce to professional success.  Learning does not stop in the 20s or 30s. Thinking so will be misleading as it is an old concept. Learning is a lifelong process. Do not ever stop seeking knowledge and upskilling yourself " said MDI Gurgaon Director Dr. Rajesh Chakrabarti while greeting the incoming cohort. "
