Master of Business Administration (MBA) - Batch of 2025

It's the best college for MBA course.

Placements: About 67% of students are admitted to the MBA branch, and tuition fees range from INR 35 LPA to INR 6 LPA, with an average of INR 19 LPA. Hindalco, IOCL, ONGC, and several more corporations are among the top recruiters. Each year, a considerable number of students receive vocational training. The highest-level positions available are financial analyst, financial manager, and so on.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is old. The department's third and final year courses, however, are excellent. Laboratories are well-equipped with the necessary apparatus and equipment. A library is the finest location to study without a book. Regarding the hostel and mess, the food quality is average. Hospital is also nice.

Faculty: High-quality instruction is consistently recommended for learning and growth. Businesses are frequently large, and industrial activity is heavily pushed. The curriculum is consistent with industry practices. All of the teachers and staff are really helpful. Semester exams are rigorous, but around 85% of students pass.

My personal review on ICFAI.

Placements: If you are here for placements, this college may not be for you. They have good starter companies that come to the college and offer fundamental salary packages. A few did get a placement from very good companies and even local companies with good CTC for everyone with good talent and benefited the college. It is very well furnished inside and outside with full plants.

Infrastructure: Well furnished and well constructed, there are a total of 3 buildings or blocks for B.Tech, BBA, and MBA. Every building and their infrastructure are very well developed and constructed. There are many canteens and even pavements to walk from one stop to another. There are street lights and many path boards.

Faculty: It has a good curriculum and faculty are friendly. They help the students in everything related to the study, and the syllabus curriculum is very flexible, so students can benefit and be useful. There are many books in the library, and students can use these to full extent. Many faculty members have done their Ph.D., so they can offer good lectures for students and provide benefits.

In general about the college

Placements: Mostly students join here for higher studies, so don’t expect much placements. Placements are around 50 percent with an average package of 5 LPA. Regarding the top recruiting companies, you can check the website. Accenture, Amazon, Deloitte, HDFC Bank, Infosys, Wipro, Capgemini, ICICI Bank, and ITC are the top recruiters. Getting an internship is compulsory as part of the curriculum. They basically need a certificate and proof for the same.

Infrastructure: It’s a big college with good infrastructure. We have well-equipped labs and Wi-Fi everywhere. No compromises on infrastructure here. The library is good with a decent number of books. The canteen food is nice and offers a variety of options. There are many grounds for different sports, so you can play anytime.

Faculty: We have experienced faculty members who have a minimum of 10 years of teaching experience and interact with students in class, except for a few who only teach the curriculum. Regarding the curriculum and exams, they are not very tough. The papers are prepared by our separate branch faculty and range from moderate to hard.

I have described all the factors about this college.

Placements: The placement cell of this college is less active, and the placement percentage is average. 35-40% of students get a placement offer. Companies like RBS, Genpact, and Oberoi are giving job offers at my college. Others who have not been placed sit in the Central Placement Office of this university.

Infrastructure: The college campus is so beautiful and spans in very huge area. Our college is on a total of 95 acres. The hostel rooms are properly maintained and clean. The food is so tasty and hygienic. Each and every room has an attached bathroom. All staff members are so kind and helpful to students.

Faculty: Most of the faculty members are highly qualified and well-experienced. They always stand for helping students. Their teaching method is great and provides the best notes. They are kind and friendly in nature. The college conducts internal, semester, and lab exams properly. The faculty members solve all doubts of the students.

Other: The college placement cell needs to be improved.
