Professor Vijayraghavan M. Chariar- He teaches Technological Alternatives for Rural Development. His unique way of teaching makes you grow as a person and widen your perspective. He believes in immersive experimental learning and organizes day trips during class timings so that his students can learn from real-life experiences.

How is SRCCs GBO programme? How are the placements and the faculty? What is the course structure like?

RG
Rohan Gupta Posted On : January 10th, 2022
GBO from Shri Ram College of Commerce (2018)

According to the students of SRCC, the GBO is a really underrated and underappreciated course, but has a potential to be considered one of the top management courses in India. The course started with an inclination towards international management. There are few benefits to the course.

  • SRCC has a brand value. It is one of the best commerce colleges in the country.
  • The Faculty members are well experienced. 
  • Every faculty associated with GBO has excelled in his or her field. 
  • Lectures on Communication and International trade also take place. 
  • The Principal takes classes on Financial Management.
  • Taking a Management course is an investment which would give a proper return in the future. 
  • With a fee of 80,000 per semester and students getting a salary package of 9.5 lakhs is a decent offer.

GBO, therefore will for sure provide a platform to start off your career but it depends on how you modify yourself and enhance your skills to get maximum benefits.

Who are the best professors at IIT Madras?

SS
Shivang Singh Posted On : February 3rd, 2024
B.Tech from IIT Madras

Even though he has retired from IIT Madras, I would like to name V. Balakrishnan sir from the Physics Department as the answer to this question. He is one of the most respected faculty members of all time at IIT Madras. 

Sir’s knowledge of Physics is unparalleled. It is absolutely stunning how he used to link the seemingly disparate aspects of the natural world. You can watch his lectures on Classical Mechanics on NPTEL and Youtube. Sir acknowledged and answered the queries of all his students. Not only that, he took those simple questions and slightly modified them, thus leading his students to understand deep and profound concepts. 

Sir’s classes ignited new thoughts in his students’ minds, and led them to those answers which they never realized they needed. No one wanted to miss any of his classes, which speaks volumes about his teaching.

Is IMI Delhi a good college looking at all aspects like exposure, teaching, placements, etc.?

KB
Kordela Baig Posted On : August 17th, 2020
PGDM from IMI Delhi (2020)

IMI Delhiis India’s first corporate-sponsored Business Schoolby large corporates like the RPG Group, ITC, Nestle, SAIL, etc. It has been ranked 11th overall and 7th among the top 10 private B-School by Outlook. The model ensures that the student gets enough Industry exposure. The institute has a location-wise benefit as it is situated at the heart of Delhi which houses many corporate giants.

  • Faculty:IMI Delhi has one of the best faculties for business education in our country, on the same level as the IIM’s. The pedagogy of IMI is also similar to that of IIMs i.e. based on case studies and peer learning.
  • Selection Criteria: Itis quite stringent, thereby filtering the best minds in the country to the institute. This enables the students to collectively benefit through the process of peer learning guided by the amazing faculties. Students are shortlisted for admission based on their CAT/XAT/CMAT/MAT/ATMA/GMAT scores. The final selection is done based on Academic Performance, Performance in Extempore Speaking, Psychometric Test, Essay Writing, and Personal Interview.
  • Infrastructure:It is one backdrop on the campus; the campus is small and doesn’t have much space for expansion.
  • Placements:The batch strength of the students is small, so students get good opportunities in placements. Top brands like Citi Bank, Goldman Sachs, Citi Bank, Axis Bank, Google, Salesforce, Airtel, Nestle, RB, etc. hire from the campus. The average salary of IMI Delhi is on par with the newer IIM’s, but since the fees of the college are not very high, it provides a good ROI. The students get placed with average salaries of around 13.07 LPA while the highest CTC is around 20 LPA.

Who is the best professor at IIM Ahmedabad?

AB
Arkaprava Banerjee Posted On : March 14th, 2022
MBA from Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (2020)

I have a few friends who graduated from IIM Ahmedabad. Most of them used to gush about the teaching methodology of Professor Saral Banerjee.  He is an expert in Operations Management. But his skills and knowledge aren’t limited to a single discipline. You will scarcely come across a better definition of strategy than the one proposed by him, “Strategy is all about closing doors.” His way of explaining the facts of management through the Elephant, Cheetah, and Tortoise story makes a lifelong impression.

How are the professors at IISC Bangalore? Do they judge you when you ask them questions? Do they cut your marks in internals if you ask them tough questions?

PP
Pratik Parikh Posted On : July 12th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

The professors here are really approachable and friendly. Let me narrate a few incidents that will convince you

  • A professor I know sets very tricky questions and on one such exam when the students were busy attempting the challenging paper, he along with some assistants started serving refreshments to the students. Later on, I found out that the assistant was a GOLD medallist from EPFL yet his humbleness overtook his knowledge.
  • You will be attending the seminars along with your professors who are always eager to learn new things. Despite being degree holders and having huge qualifications their humble attitude towards learning instills a sense of positivity in the students.
  • What amazes me the most were instances when some professors failed to answer certain questions in the class, and then they got back to you through emails with a properly researched answer. In fact, some professors even stayed throughout the night with their students in labs figuring out answers.
  • Their dedication level is extremely high as sometimes professors attend seminars even when it’s raining and they are drenched in the way.
  • The professors value every second and once I saw a professor eat a dry bun and a fruity just to save time. 

Trust me, being a part of the IISc family will be the most enlightening experience you will ever have.
