Most Helpful

Remarks :

Location advantage as Mumbai is the hub of business and most of the reputed companies come here for the placements. Best campus and pedagogy in Mumbai. Best fit for Finance and Marketing. Sports facilities. Decent average package.

Course Curriculum Overview :

Retail management is very close to Marketing core and I have been always interested in marketing. Also, I want to pursue the FMCG sector so MBA in retail management is best suited for me. Faculty: student would be 1:15 here. Some are permanent and some faculties are guest faculties. The online mode of teaching has restricted us from answering this question precisely. We are undergoing online studies due to covid and it is not satisfactory at all.

Class Size : 60Course Fees : INR 717000 per year

Internships Opportunities :

College brings internships but only the top 20 percent gets a worth its internship. The next 30 percent of students get 10-15k per month internship and the last 50% of the batch gets an unpaid internship. I got an internship at Mumbai in Wellness Forever and it is paid one but still had better hopes after spending 20 lacs.

Placement Experience :

After we are done with our 4th trimester in Aug/Sept, the companies start coming for recruitment. The batch size of K J Somaiya is too large now (550+) so do not get into the trap of the highest and top 10, 20 percent placement thing. The average is around 9.5-10 LPA but then the fixed component is around 7.5 only. Not recommended at all after investing 20 lac rupees.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

College increases the fee by 1.5 lacs every year and it is not justified. The course is overpriced and the current fee for the batch starting from 2021 is around 16.5 lacs. It can go in complete online mode and therefore it is not worth it.

Campus Life :

We had our annual fest Melange in online mode this year. To be honest its a complete wastage in online mode. The campus and infrastructure of the institute are wonderful but it is of no use as everything is going online and no one has visited the college. All the infra and sports facilities of the college are untouched by us and it is the end of our 1st year.

Interview Experience :

We had a case discussion, a Written ability test and then a personal interview. The admission process is a mix of various components ranging from a case discussion to your academics and extracurricular CAT/XAT cutoff is around 80 percentile.

Overall, a good college

Placement Experience:

The college placement rate is 98%. Even that 2% is not just because they don't want to get place. They have personal issues like they will be having their family business or they have to study more though average package of the placement is 12,00,00 it keeps on increasing.

Former Tirpudian..!!

Course Curriculum Overview:

So according to me MBA is something which teaches us about business like how to do, why to do it, how can we make it, how to get it succeded but i feel the books which is being use in RTMNU it doesnt come with proper examples or case studies which sometime helpful, so more of a practical knowledge is required.

SIBM Pune - The college you want to be at!

Placement Experience:

The placements at SIBM Pune have plenty of opportunities for students across specializations. The companies that come on campus are from multiple various domains and sectors, so the students have the pick of the best. There are two cycles: 1. SIRP - Summer Internship Recruitment Process, which is conducted in the first year of college, &, 2. CRP - Campus Recruitment Process, which is conducted in the second year of college.
