ICFAI Business School Mumbai Powai Answered Questions

IBS Mumbai is better because no other institute provide flexible learning method like IBS , IBS provides 3 months internship program, even the placement records of IBS is very good. It provides campus placements starting from the month of September upto month of June . It has a track record of 100 percent placements every year. It has high connectivity and good relationship with various corporates like JP Morgan Chase , Deloitte , Crisil, Kotak Mahindra bank , ICICI Bank, Standard Chartered bank, RBL Bank, Citi bank, AC Neilsen, Lodha Group , E Clerx, Nestle, Smollan India, ICICI Securities, Kotak Prime, Kotak Securities, Religare Securities, Bharti Axa, TATA AIG, TCS IT and BPS and so on .

If you don't have work experience then it doesn't matter a lot to the recruiter(s) who will be taking your interview. The chances of your placement are quite good but not too good as first preference would always be given to MBA in HR. Sky has no limit, you will get a job for sure with Diploma in HR but the only difference would be in your salary package which won't be considered as that high as compared to an MBA in HR, by the time you will start gaining experience, your work experience and Diploma qualification will help you a lot to get salary hike in future. You will definitely get a job that too in HR, start applying for reputed MNCs in order to give your career the right start.

Good to hear that you got selected at IBS, Mumbai. It's a great institute to learn management and various skills required to work in the corporate environment. As far as MET-Bandra is concerned, it has a good corporate presence with companies that visit every year for placements. You need to compare the fees structure and placement records from the placement cell of IBS Mumbai as you got selected for IBM, Mumbai and others accordingly to see what ROI you would be getting after you get placed. You even need to compare the same track records for MET-Bandra by asking relevant sources like your friends or the students already studying there. As I am IBS Mumbai pass out, I would say that placements are good and even the faculty and course wise teaching is good, designed and updated as per industry specifications. Academically also they provide 3 months internship which is very good in itself as no other institution provides such a great practical exposure to corporate like IBS-Mumbai does. They follow a good corporate teaching pattern and make students learn the pressure of corporate culture and accordingly how to adjust with it. Package wise, they have the average package of Rs 6 LPA and the highest package of Rs 11.5 LPA.

Amity Global B-School Mumbai, Malad West Campus, Mumbai:
Pros:
Quality of faculty is excellent and their experiences too.
Teaching quality of specialization related elective subjects is the best, mostly case study based.
The best part of learning is experiential learning and management workshop.
Infrastructure
Good crowd
Location of college - Ideal for students on Westen Line, Churchgate/VT to Borivali
General professionalism of staff
Good institutional facilities
Wi-Fi in whole campus (laptops, tabs only, no phone and mobiles - sad indeed)
Good classrooms - with surveillance
Decent average package (7 lacs)
I am happy with my decision of choosing Amity, Mumbai for my MBA.
Note: Amity has two campuses in Mumbai - Malad West (Mindspace) Campus and Amity University Panvel campus. So, if you are from western line Amity Malad Campus is the best option, but there are only limited seats for MBA in Malad campus i.e. 60 seats. They also offer BBA (60 seats) in Malad campus.
The other campus is in Panvel and they offer various programs in sience, technology, engineering, management and commerce, arts, fashion, mass-communication, journalism, etc. The admission is through entrance test in both these campus.
Cons:
Too strict in terms of attendance (minimum 75% attendance is a must to sit for next semester exam)
Dress code
Number of quality summer/winter internships (Only single day internship is provided, no stay)
Canteen can be better
Parking facility - First come basis
Few faculties - too strict
High fee structure - 6.2Lacs
I would not suggest IBS Mumbai. I cancelled my MBA admission there because in each classroom you will see 90+ students seated. It has poor student faculty ratio. Placement figures are usually inflated with fake variables included. The placement team keeps changing every year. Although few faculty, Visiting-faculty there are among the best faculty available in Mumbai and also taking lectures in Amity, Welingkar and NMIMS. IBS campus offers PGPM certificate and if you want to pursue MBA, you need to pay 1 lakh extra and also appear for separate exam for MBA as well which means for the same degree you need to appear for the exam twice and the best part is that MBA degree will not be from IBS Mumbai, but from some university in east India - Sikkim, Meghalaya or Tripura.
