Eligibility criteria were B.E or B.Tech or Architect or any graduate programme. All the forms are available on the site of the college. The entrance exam was held followed by Personal Interviews. The scholarship was provided to the students who scored well on the entrance test. Cut off was not revealed.
Admissions here was based on NCAT entrance along with academic performance, work experience and performance in the interview to make it to the final merit list. For the application fee, I paid Rs.2100 and submitted my application form through the official website of the university. I got to know about NICMAR through my college teacher, she suggested that it's a great institute. Also, I got to know that it ranks as one of the top 20 schools for it's PGP course, that I was taking admission in.
Nominal Fee Structure, Awesome Placements and internships, well established Infrastructure, Huge Green Campus, Well educated Faculty, Awesome hostel life made me choose this college and I am sure it would be be beneficial for the upcoming batches in the near future.
Academically, this programme is best suited to students with an interest in real estate and infrastructure. Basically, this course covers everything you'd learn in an MBA Subject. Faculties are also excellent because they are engaging and interactive.
I chose this PG program because I wanted to understand the Business industry where I would be able to apply my architectural skills and management skills and grow accordingly. Also If in future I wanted to start my own venture. both these skills would help me establish the same. Major number of faculties are PhDs and other assistant professors are those who have masters degree or are pursuing PhD. There are faculties who are MTech in construction Engineering and management.
The course curriculum of the PGP ACM program is well structured and reviewed time to time to include the latest evolution in Construction, Real State, Infrastructure, and Project (CRIP) in order to develop competence in the diversed area. Moreover, the program is prepared in a way to make us a professional who could take up all the responsibilities to Infrastructure development and real estate projects. Further, our faculties hold experience of more than 10 years of both academics and industries. Also, they use modern methodology to teach us the management program and blend the practical and the theoretical knowledge with research work and case studies.Also, they guide us properly before the placement session and develop technical skills including project management, valuation, valuation, investment, construction in real state management and others.
I chose this course as it was most relevant to my requirements. Best things about this course are that subjects are relevant to me and hence are very interesting to me. This course involves the subjects of practical reality and is really providing the proper knowledge for becoming a techno manager. The faculty members Dr. Sanjay Bhoyar, Dr. Amol Pawar,Dr. R. Sathishkuma. They are passionate about their subjects, teaching and making students learn.
The learning here is very advanced. There is no burden of books as such. The class builds upon the concepts and methodologies of management, engineering, architecture, law, information technology, social and behavioral sciences and combines theory with practical experience and research work as well. Our faculty comprised of teachers namely, Dr. Sanjay Bhoyar, who is the head of the department, followed by Dr. Amol Pawar and Dr. R. Sathishkumar. The class consisted of viva, practical work followed by assignments. We had semester based exams and internal marks were added in our external exam as well.
It's one of the best available in our country and also regarded as an standard for best outside the country in the construction industry. The faculty is very helpful and also push us towards gaining practical knowledge
Advanced Construction Management in PUNE campus has a strength of 467 and is the most sought after course in NICMAR. As a result, most companies come for recruitment of ACM students. This course covers both Technical aspects and Management aspects. The technical sessions are stuffed with civil engineering concepts that are most recent and which are used in the industry.
NICMAR is a good and reputed college with a stellar placement record. The 2018-2020 batch had over 90% placement percentage with more than 120 companies visiting the NICMAR (Pune) Campus for recruitment.
Mostly, the companies tend to offer similar packages for ACM as well as PEM. However, what does make a difference to it is the prior work experience of the candidates. So, it has got more to do with the individual capability than the branch, where higher salary placements are concerned.
Placement Opportunities:
Do consider all your options before making a final choice. However, on the feedback received from some of the alumni of the institute, I would recommend you for Advanced Construction Management rather than Project Engineering and Management.
If you really want to pursue a career in the Technical field then it will be suggested to go with M.Tech as you might get ended up in some renowned structural engineer. You can also pursue any other subject as well if you are interested.
This will open an opportunity in doing a lectureship in college. By doing so, you can further pursue Ph.D.
It would be highly suggested to go with GATE only if you are getting into top IITs and NITs as it will make an impact on future references.
Apart from this, if your interest area is in Civil engineering but in a different domain, then go for NICMAR as it will open the option for accounting, marketing, business development, contracts, planning, valuation, execution, etc. By doing so, you might as well end up as a successful corporate or entrepreneur.
Actually, all of the subjects have something that will be used in the future and that you must prepare for.
Concentrate on your fundamental civil engineering subjects, such as Concrete Technology and building materials. These topics will help you prepare for interviews if you are applying for specific positions in large real estate companies.
For REUIM, you don't need to focus on any of the civil engineering-specific disciplines, in order to get admission. REUIM provides a better balance of electives, such as corporate real estate management, real estate negotiations, and asset management, among others. The rest of the numerous subjects are shared by all branches.
