In this research paper, we describe the direct service learning experience of students of a top tier business school in India. Service learning experience was one of the pedagogical tools used during the course, Corporate Social Responsibility. Students were assessed on the basis of their self-reflection, feedback from beneficiaries and joint evaluation by faculty-in-charge and community representatives. The study reveals that students’ understanding of social issues, commitment towards society, empathy, responsibility and creative thinking were enhanced after the service learning experience.
