Is the IBS (ICFAI business SCHOOL) Mumbai a good option for pursuing MBA and what are the placement records of IBS Mumbai not only this year but from last 4 to 5 years?

IBS Mumbai can be a good option if you don't have many other choices, but it's important to have a clear purpose for pursuing an MBA from the school. 

The teaching methodology and case studies offered by the college are good, but the placement record has declined over the years due to an increase in the number of students. 

The institute filters students very heavily, leading to the debarment of below-average students, and approximately 30% of the total crowd is left unplaced. Therefore, prospective students should invest wisely and choose their field of study wisely. 

IBS Mumbai can be a decent option for pursuing an MBA, but it's important to consider the placement record, the teaching methodology, and the value the degree would add to your career goals before making a decision.

Is IBS a good college for an MBA in marketing? Which is the best campus: Hyderabad, Mumbai, or Pune?

JT
Jayant Thakur Posted On : February 24th, 2023
Studied at ICFAI Business School, Mumbai

Among the campuses of IBS, Hyderabad is considered the best, followed by Mumbai and Pune. It is assumed that the syllabus and course content are similar across the three campuses. Hyderabad is considered to be the best in terms of facilities and resources, while Mumbai is also a strong option, with good professors, case studies, presentations, and a well-equipped campus.

While IBS Hyderabad has a strong placement record, most of the offered positions are in sales. There are also opportunities in advertising, retailing, and other fields, but they are less prevalent. The pay packages offered by the college are decent. After gaining some experience through campus placements, you can explore job opportunities outside the college.

It is important to note that none of the IBS campuses are AICTE approved, but they are affiliated with ICFAI University in Dehradun. As an alternative, you can opt for a distance MBA program by paying an additional fee.

Which one should I go for, IBS Mumbai or BIMTECH, Noida?

Having friends at BIMTECH, I suggest you go for it. It is a better choice than IBS Mumbai. If you are in the 70-90 percentile range, then BIMTECH is actually a very good option for you. Here are some of the reasons as to why –

  • It is really good at BIMTECH with a good mix of professors. The visiting faculty are also very good.
  • The library has lots of good books and journals to follow and is one of the best things about the institute.
  • It focuses a lot on case studies which really enhances the classroom experience.
  • A lot of presentations are also expected from students which will make you overcome your stage fright.
  • Hostels are decent with good quality food in the mess.
  • The college holds a strong brand and reputation among students which attracts a diverse set of students from all across the country.

In regard to placements, BIMTECH is truly superior to IBS Mumbai. The placement highlights for the year 2020 depict the same as well –

Highest CTC

INR 23 LPA (International)

INR 15 LPA (Domestic)

INR 50.23 LPA (International)

The only drawback for BIMTECH Noida would be its higher fee structure as well as its high fee for the hostels which are also mandatory. Apart from that, there is nothing in which IBS Mumbai actually gets an advantage over BIMTECH Noida. Thus undoubtedly, BIMTECH Noida should be your preferred choice between the two.

What are the disadvantages of getting a PGPM degree of 2 years from IBS Mumbai?

AJ

Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

IBS Mumbai, a top Indian business school, provides a two-year PGPM (Post Graduate Programme in Management). Before enrolling in the program, analyze its pros and cons. Some drawbacks:

  • Cost: IBS Mumbai's PGPM program is more expensive than others in India. Tuition, living expenses, and other expenditures may make the program unaffordable for some.
  • Competition: Admission to IBS Mumbai's PGPM program is difficult. The Institute receives many applications, and the selection process is tough, so not everyone can get in.
  • IBS Mumbai's PGPM program is general management, hence students may not be able to specialize. Consider a program that specializes in your career goal or interest.
  • Location: IBS Mumbai is in Mumbai, which might benefit or hurt students. Mumbai's traffic and pollution can make living there expensive.
  • Crowded Classrooms: The PGPM program at IBS Mumbai has huge class sizes, making it hard for students to gain individual attention from professors. Students who need extra support may find this difficult.

While IBS Mumbai's PGPM program has many benefits, including a strong faculty, industry connections, and good placement opportunities, it's important to consider the drawbacks before enrolling.

Is IBS Mumbai good for PG in Finance or BIMTECH Greater Noida?

AA

Former Student at Birla Institute of Management Technology

If you have converted BIMTECH Greater Noida for the core PGDM program, then you should definitely consider this program over the other. 

ICFAI Business School (IBS) has many campuses across India; Mumbai, Dehradun, Gurgaon, Bangalore (off-campus Hyderabad), Kolkata, Pune, Ahmedabad, and Jaipur. Out of these, only the Hyderabad campus comes close to BIMTECH Greater Noida.

The average salary offered during the campus placements for the core PGDM 2018-20 batch of BIMTECH Greater Noida is INR 8.27 lakhs per annum. The percentage placements of the overall batch (all the courses) were 96.59%. 

If you are really interested in finance and want to build your career in the same, then you can go for IBS Mumbai if you are not getting any other campus. Otherwise, BIMTECH Greater Noida is always preferable.
