Celebrating the winners of Dean's List for Monsoon 2024

In a celebration to recognize students' academic efforts, the university gathered on Thursday (February 20) to honour the Dean's List winners for the Monsoon session 2024. 

Three hundred and twenty-six students made the cut for awards for getting a Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) of 8.50 and above. Recognizing the hard work and dedication of the winners, a packed hall saw parents, students, faculty, Deans, and the Vice-Chancellor come together to laud students' efforts.

This event was unique as the university, for the first time, included 35 postgraduate students on the coveted Dean's list.

"Congratulations to all those who made it to the Dean's List. This is a great achievement. It's very encouraging to see the kind of dedication you have to your studies. At Shiv Nadar University, we try hard to provide a multidisciplinary education that nurtures the soul, heart, mind, body, and spirit. I once again congratulate all the winners, their parents, families and friends who have gathered here," said Vice-Chancellor Professor Ananya Mukherjee, addressing the packed venue. 

Interestingly, of the 326 who made the cut to the Dean's list also included 24 who scored a perfect 10 SGPA. 

"Success of students makes us happy. We, as faculty and mentors, are always with the students, but at the end of the day, it's the students' hard work that matters. Their success isn't about hard work for one single day. It's keeping up for the whole semester. I congratulate all of the students," said Professor Partha Chatterjee, Dean of Academics. 

The Dean's List included a diverse group of students from various schools, including Engineering, Humanities, Natural Sciences, and Management. Besides meeting stringent academic requirements, these students have also contributed to the university community through research, projects, and extracurricular involvement.

Being on the Dean's List is a mark of distinction that highlights a student's dedication and hard work and enhances their academic profile for future opportunities, such as scholarships, internships, and postgraduate admissions. It proves their ability to excel in a challenging academic environment.
