00:00Hello everyone, I'm Arun Dhiman, I'm a PDM Scholar here at ISPP for the batch of 2026.
00:06A little bit about me, I come from a finance background first and after that I decided to
00:12study Public Policy Design and Management over here. The past one year at ISPP has been very
00:19enriching, it has been very holistic, it has helped me to look at things from different
00:26perspectives. The curriculum was very diverse in nature, we study different kind of subjects,
00:36from economics, to law and economics, from philosophy, to development, to business and
00:42governments, to technology, to urbanization, to health, to education. So as a future policy maker
00:50or whatever anybody wants to do, it does give you a different framework to look at life, to look at
00:57business, to look at government, to understand the things that are happening around you better than
01:03you were before. The faculty over here has an amazing experience, they've been at amazing places,
01:12we have professors ranging from the direct advisor to the prime minister, to someone who has added
01:17international institutes, to someone who's headed big academic institutes. So the kind of faculty
01:25you get over here, they come with a very different and a diverse perspective that enriches your journey
01:31as a student and once I'm done here at Indian School of Public Policy, I will head back with all
01:38the
01:38learnings and all the strength and the new worldview that I've gathered from here. I would want to go back
01:46to my hometown and build a healthcare institution that me and my family are working towards and scale it
01:55to a national level. I mean, that's the goal. Thank you everyone.
