Process oriented, meticulous and organised, Professor Sonali Singh is known to be the perfect Quantitative Techniques and Operations teacher in Jaipuria Institute of Management. A core faculty member at Jaipuria Noida, Professor Sonali Singh is an MPhil in Operations Management and has over nine years of teaching experience.

“I am passionate about teaching. I really enjoy teaching quantitative papers like Statistics, and Operations Research, simply because they are always evolving. With the world grappling with challenges of data clutter management, waste data management and, of course, tools for Big Data tabulation and analysis, the subject is only getting more critical for management students.”

It is for this reason that Professor Sonali Singh constantly invites eminent professionals from industry for guest talks. These interactions help the students of Jaipuria Institute of Management to appreciate the relevance of quantitative and statics-driven subjects in business.

“Not many newcomers understand the importance and motive of including quantitative subjects in their course. The challenge for a teacher in such a field lies in generating interest in the student. I use a lot of real life business applications in my classes at Jaipuria Noida, and keep my students involved in numerous course exercises.”

Professor Sonali Singh believes that like every profession, teaching comes with its highs and lows.

“Personally, I have experienced many great moments in my teaching career. A good day can leave you happy and enthusiastic, and feeling on top of the world! There are days when students seem very participative, and then there are days when they seem not so connected. A teacher has to keep reinventing herself or himself to keep the class participative and interested.”

Without fail, Professor Sonali Singh dedicates a portion of each day to reading articles and global updates on the subject she’s teaching the next day in her class at Jaipuria Noida. She promptly responds to her mails, clears her desk, and prepares well in advance for forthcoming tasks. She believes her own conduct will inspire her students at Jaipuria Noida to understand how essential time management is.

“If there is one lesson that I try to impart to every batch at Jaipuria Institute of Management, Noida, it is – ‘Care about the process and not just the outcome; every visionary that the world has ever seen has done just that’.”

Professor Sonali believe that the best thing that students learn in Jaipuria Institute of Management is the ability to work with others and share their success.
