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.

I have described all the factors about this college.

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.

Overall, it is a good college for the MBA course.

Placements: The placement record of this college is average. The college placement cell is inactive. Very few companies like RBS, Genpact, Oberoi, etc., hire high-quality students. Only 35-40% of students get placed on the campus, and others sit in the central placements of the university. I think college placement needs to be improved.

Infrastructure: The college campus is so big and very beautiful. The campus of our college spans 95 acres. Hostel rooms are well-maintained and properly cleaned. Mess food is delicious and maintains proper hygiene. The hostel provides an attached bathroom. Staff members are friendly and kind in nature. Here we can feel at home.

Faculty: One of the best things about our college is its faculty members. Most of the faculty members are well-qualified. They always help students with problem-solving. They provide the best notes. Exams like internal, semester, and lab exams are taken in a professional manner. Teachers behave very friendly with students.

This is the best college for MBA course.

Placements: Our college's MBA placement cell provides students with the chance to secure jobs in the industry. 70% of the students secure placements, while the remaining ones in our college choose to pursue higher education. Cognizant, Wells Fargo, DeltaX, and others are the leading firms. If not through the placement cell, clubs also provide placement options.

Infrastructure: Facilities are more standard than those of any other college in Hyderabad. There are also classrooms with Wi-Fi, a large library, smart teaching, and facilities for sports and games. However, hotel facilities are not so great, due to the poor maintenance of all rooms and guest rooms. MBA mess is great though.

Faculty: Curriculum is excellent and helps you prepare for the industry and the outside world. Semester exams have a continuous grading system, which is difficult but can be tackled with consistent effort. Curriculum is appropriate, and projects and activities contribute to the overall development of students.

My honest review of my college.

Placements: No matter how much college boasts of this. The real picture is not the same. The placement cell is present in the college, but is quite inactive. Very few companies visited the campus. Some of those are Genpact, RBS, Oberoi, etc. About 30-40% of students get placed. The rest of them sit in the central placements of the university.

Infrastructure: Hostel rooms and furniture beds are very well maintained. The mess is very well-maintained and cleaned by the hostel team members. Staff members are also friendly and feel like a home.

Faculty: One thing I loved about the college is its painstaking faculty members. Most of the professors have pretty good experience. They are readily available for doubts even after the lecture. There are freshers too, but do not worry, they provide notes. Internals, mid exams, semester exams, and lab exams are conducted in a professional manner. The course curriculum is a bit outdated, but professors bring a lot of new topics for discussion. The pedagogy is also a bit outdated, considering facts that lots of other MBA institutes have an innovative style of teaching. Some courses are offered in a specified format.

The campus and infrastructure facilities are good, but the fee is high.

Placements: IBS has a strong alumni network that supports students during the placement season. Last year, the highest package offered was around 21 Lacs per year, and the college claims an average salary package of 10 Lacs per year. The main recruiters include Deloitte, Amazon, and JPMC.

Infrastructure: The college spans about 95 acres of land and has extensive infrastructural facilities. They also offer hostel rooms with both AC and non-AC options. There are many hostel blocks characterized by single-sharing and dual-sharing rooms. Attached washrooms are also provided.

Faculty: We have experienced faculty who will help to improve our potential. They all have at least 10 years of teaching experience. They are also good at case study writing, so this will improve the practical experience of students about what will happen in an organization.
