Bengal Institute of Business Studies Lake View Road Kolkata Answered Questions

It is a good question. But, it totally depends on your situation. If you need to start earning money straight away without wasting any time sitting in classroom, you can go for PGPIBM. You will have more experience compared to PGPBM students. But, if you are more interested in academics and want to learn the subjects you can take up PGPBM. Though, placements happen for both PGPBM and PGPIBM at the same time. So, there is no much difference apart from the apprenticeship in PGPIBM.

I totally understand your situation, because after all it's a big investment of your life, but I must tell you that BIBS changed my life. Today, I am working in a very good company in UAE.

There are many events which are going to help you shape your personality skills and confidence. You will have a very enriching experience here.

PGPBM and PGPIBM is almost same, because subjects and course pattern is the same. But the only difference is in PGPIBM, you get to work with companies before actual placements. So, you get more experience and also earn money after 5 months of joining. So, it totally depends on you if you want to work early or focus on academics.

Hi Nilanjan,
Let me tell you the difference between PGPBM and PGPIBM. PGPBM is a full-time course and PGPIBM is a course where you will attend college for a few months and then do your apprenticeship. Talking about the subjects, you have the M.Sc background so better if you take up marketing because finance and HR will be totally different from your Bachelor's degree. Marketing will be good because you will learn a different subject that will not make it difficult for you to understand.
That's my opinion. All the best.

Hi Amit,
MBA is a big decision that you are taking and it is difficult if you think it's difficult. You will enjoy your 2 years in BIBS so much that semesters will be just a part of MBA. You can study and pass if you were present in the classroom. That's how they teach you in the class so that you can learn it in practical life. Exams don't seem tough after that. Moreover, it will be a fun learning experience for you.

Hi Shakib,
Let me clear your doubt. BIBS is good for placements. If you compare it with any institute in Kolkata, you will see the difference. The marketing department is indeed very strong here because of the faculty and the companies who we have in our placement list. So, definitely, it's a good option to study marketing here. Rest is your hard work that will fetch you a good job.
