Most B.Com programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means corporate finance, financial markets, accounting and investment analysis. Typical first jobs: financial analyst, banking or investment roles. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Nilgiri College of Arts and Science for the current semester-wise plan.
