Master of Business Administration (MBA) - Batch of 2023

3.2

3.0Placements3.0Infrastructure3.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life3.0Value for Money

It is the most appropriate college in Calcutta for the MBA course.

Placements: In the pre-final year, students are arranged with some paid or unpaid internships across various corporate industries with the help of alumni of the college. Top trainers and alumni provide proper training in approaching companies for getting placed. Many students got placed in the banking sector with a package of above 4.3 LPA.

Infrastructure: Other than the uniform days, all girls and boys are required to dress formally, and it is usually monitored by the in-charge. It's a digitalised college but refuses to use mobile phones on campus.

Faculty: It's very obvious that this course requires fewer books for studying, while we are required to buy the same from the college itself instead of using library books. It is so much easier to score in the semester when we read only the important questions. The teaching quality of teachers is not so impressive or satisfying. Apart from all, scores are the deciding factors of a student's performance.

Absolutely satisfied with college.

Placements: Almost all students were placed in our course. Placement was extremely good. Highest salary package offered in our course was in crores. Average salary package was around 20 LPA. Top recruiting companies were JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, D.E. Shaw, etc. Almost all students successfully secured internship offers.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure available for our course were extremely good. It provided world-class facilities. Library was available with a quality of reference books. The facilities in the hostel were also really good, like 5 5-star hotel. A large sports court was also present.

Faculty: Teachers were helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality of our faculty members was really great. Many of them were alumni of foreign universities like Stanford and Harvard. Course curriculum was relevant. Semester examination was quite tough.

My review about this college.

Placements: Internships are a very vital ingredients of IIM-C life. These internships are to be taken in the passage between first year-end and second-year start. The B-school records 100% summer internship placement with reasonable pay. Summer placements happen in October and final placements happen in March. The average compensation is around Rs 28 LPA. All students are placed in firms like Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, ITC, HUL, Microsoft, Infosys, ICICI, Wipro, Satyam, Cognizant, Bank of America, Indus Valley Partners, Marico, Dabur, British Gas, Temasek Holding, and many more.

Infrastructure: Faculty members put their best foot forward to ensure a great classroom learning experience for all. The institute provides accommodation facilities. Hostel fees are not included in the total fees of Rs 21,00,000. There are commonly changing rooms and games rooms where students can chill and gossip. With co-ed hostels also in place, it is more fun chilling and cracking jokes. The surroundings are amazing, and we used to celebrate even the festivals in the hostel.

Faculty: Faculty members at IIM Calcutta are top-notch. They also have very huge research works, papers, and experiences that are world-class. Most of them have graduated from the esteemed business schools of India. The finance, operations, and organizational behavior professors are best in India. All the courses in the first 2 semesters are related to the basic understanding of the business ecosystem. Basics of marketing, finance, organizational behavior, and political history of India are covered initially. Later in the second year, we can choose our own subjects and major in any division. IIMC has a faculty to student ratio of around 1:7 which is slightly lower as compared to its counterparts but nonetheless.

Stable results in placement and academic performance.

Placements: I got placed in the company Goldman Sachs. Nearly 40+ student competitors fought with me to grab this opportunity, while 15+ students cleared the first round and 5+ students cleared the second round. In the final interview, I was one of the persons selected for the reputed company with a package of 6.46 LPA.

Infrastructure: The layout of the college was so amazing, and they are offering several courses at very low fees. Cameras are fixed at every main location of the campus, so unnecessary student behavior and movements in the campus area are not highly encouraged at any time.

Faculty: For pricing academic standards, the top 3 performers in academics are rewarded with scholarships that cover their tuition fees. This really helps students from economically weaker backgrounds and motivates us to study better than before.
