It holds a Distinguished Lecturer Series where experts share their experiences. It hosts a Model United Nations every year.
A few years ago, the principal gave all hawkers outside the college legitimate spaces in the college in a bid to curb bunking. Aniket Jotwani, a first-year BCom student, says, “HR College has a history of producing great students. That is because various activities are organised by students.”
The placement cell has so far helped place students in companies such as HLL, Reliance Industries, and Oberoi Hotels.

HR College is not just about academics and extra-curricular activities. We also focus on community service. Students should be able to use their good education to involve themselves in what’s happening around them in the world
