Is doing an MBA distance from IMT Ghaziabad after a 4-year gap good? I have only 1 year of work experience.

HN
Hardik Nagar Posted On : February 16th, 2023
Founder at Learning From Ant (2019–present)

It is not recommended that you pursue an MBA through distance learning at IMT Ghaziabad, especially if you have a four-year gap in your education and only one year of work experience. In this case, it may be more advantageous for you to apply to top B-Schools that are beneficial for distance learning as they can offer more value to your resume.

Another factor to consider is the placement services provided by institutions such as NMIMS, which can be beneficial for securing job opportunities after graduation.

While it is understood that the four-year gap in your education may have been due to valid reasons, it is important to consider your academic credentials. Before making a decision, it is recommended that you research other options such as distance learning MBA programs from TAPMI, Symbiosis, or certification programs offered by MICA and IIMs. This way, you can make an informed decision that will benefit you in the long run.

Does an industrial engineer have any advantage when applying for an MBA at NITIE?

SP
Sreeja Prasad Posted On : August 13th, 2021
PGDIM from NITIE (2019)

NITIE Mumbai is the brand name for engineers targeting management courses in India. The institute offers various industrial management courses for students.

I have a friend studying PGDIM in NITIE Mumbai, and as per his insights, you do not get any advantage of being an Industrial Engineer in NITIE Mumbai, if you are focusing on PGDIM or PGDISEM. As it offers you an Industrial Management degree, having an Industrial Engineering does add anything to your profile. However, you may get an edge over other students if targeting M. Tech through the GATE exam.

Overall, in MBA from NITIE, an industrial engineer is on the same platform as other candidates.

What facilities does an IGNOU distance MBA provide as compared to NMIMS or Symbiosis?

SB
Sunita Banerjee Posted On : July 13th, 2022
Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

All three of these are good for pursuing a distance MBA. However, IGNOU examination centers are more in number compared to NMIMS and Symbiosis. You can attend contact classes and get guidance regarding studies easily at a convenient place near you. IGNOU offers multiple specializations. The course fees are affordable. It offers good learning resources as well. Every study center of IGNOU has its own library. 

IGNOU Distance MBA is better because of the facilities are resources offered.

Which one would be a better option: a job under SSC or MBA from SIBM Bangalore?

RM
Rahul Mahajan Posted On : June 14th, 2021
Studied at Symbiosis Institute of Business Management, Bengaluru (2020)

Staff Selection Commission (SSC) will land you in a government job. There are different departments in SSC where you can get placed. Whereas, MBA from SIBM Bangalore will weave you to be corporate ready and land you in a private white-collar job.

Choice

  • If you want to be at a work-life equilibrium and a fixed-paying job, cracking the SSC exam makes sense. SSC provides you with job security.
  • If you want to earn a lucrative package and are ready to have a hectic life with variable work hours, MBA is the best choice. SIBM Bangalore is the second well-known and high-rated campus of Symbiosis International University after SIBM Pune.
  • SSC will cost you less, but competition is high due to the “Government job” tag.

Career

Fee

MBA from SIBM Bangalore

INR 16.20 Lakhs

SSC

The application fee is less than INR 1000. Reserved candidates get exemption in this fee.

The coaching fee will cost under INR 1 Lakh.

If you have already cleared SSC Tier-1 and Tier-2 exams, leaving SSC will not be a wise choice. SSC is a preferable choice over MBA from SIBM Bangalore. The reason is, MBA from SIBM Bangalore does not have much credibility in the industry.

Is joining new IIMs (Ranchi, Trichy, Udaipur) worth it? How will be the career growth after an MBA from new ones?

AB
Arvind Balakrishnan Posted On : January 13th, 2023
99.22 CAT'16, PGPM at MDI Gurgaon

The career growth offered by the new IIMs is difficult to analyze as they haven’t been established for long. One cannot infer their worth easily as its alumni are yet to establish themselves in the corporate world. It will take a few more years to determine the growth of CEO alums career-wise.

If you are concerned about the general job prospects, try going through the placement reports of these IIMs. You will get a general idea of the packages and roles offered.

To know if the new IIMs are worth going for, you need to check what you are expecting from these B Schools. If you are looking for basic learning and a small push to kickstart your career, the new IIMs will benefit you. But if you are on the lookout for high ROI, the new IIMs may or may not satisfy your expectations.

JIMS (Jagan Institute of Management Studies)has good visiting faculties from SRCC, LSR and other DU reputed colleges. The syllabus pedagogy is up to date with industry standards but suffers from lack of industry exposure. The institute also brings in sales roles in reputed firms like YES Bank, Standard Chartered, 99 acres etc.

IILM Lodhi Road offers a full-fledged MBA degree recognized by UGC instead of a diploma. The curriculum followed is inspired by reputed institutes around the world like Stanford, Wharton etc. Excellent in campus hostel facilities and a mentorship program for new joiners into the institute. It is popular for its offering in marketing roles and faculties in the marketing and sales domain.

IMS Ghaziabad consists of Atal Incubation centre to encourage entrepreneurship and business-minded individuals to start their own firms. There are smart classrooms, and the campus is WiFi enabled. The faculties are highly qualified and knowledgeable.

From above we can almost conclude that all three colleges are similar in facilities and placements. Choosing any one of the three would be a good decision for pursuing an MBA degree.

Which MBA college should I prefer (background is from B.tech hons (CS) and have 15 months work experience), IIT KGP or IIM Trichy?

JD
Jaideep Kumar Dutta Posted On : January 13th, 2023
FPM Accounting and Finance & Corporate Governance, Indian Institute of Management Ranchi (2019)

The best way to answer your query is to mention the core highlights of MBA from both institutes.

IIT

  • The MBA course here is more of technical nature as the program is one of the many departments of a huge Technical institute
  • The peers are very talented and genius 
  • The small batch size increases the opportunities for placements 

IIM Trichy

  • The MBA experience here is much more diverse and challenging. You will find peers from diverse backgrounds.
  • The pedagogy here is top notch as they specialize in this area
  • IIM Trichy has a better academic rigor and their style of Management education is too good
  • IIMs offer better food and infrastructural facilities 

I will sum up my answer with 2 points. If you are looking for job prospects outside India, IITs are a good choice. But within India, IIMs are a better option as their style of Management surpasses that of IITs.
