I am satisfied with the placement and infrastructure, etc.

Faculty: There are highly experienced teachers in trade, economics, finance, and marketing. Teachers are well qualified and well-behaved with all students. The curriculum is industry-oriented with a focus on global trade and WTO regulations, etc. Semester exams are a little tough, and passing both exams (external and internal) is different.

I am dissatisfied with the nature of teachers and the infrastructure of classrooms.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful but they don't take classes and they avoid teaching us. Teachers only want assignments and projects except for these things they don't give marks. Activities are going on in my college and the teachers don't teach like this, which makes students industry-ready. So semester exams are hard. The pass percentage of a student is about 75%. Teachers are qualified but not good in nature.

Our university is one of the best universities in Kolkata.

Faculty: Faculty members are good. They work hard for students and they have good knowledge of everything. They teach students on whiteboards as well as digital board. Faculty members provide reading material along with multiple questions to understand details concepts. We can easily understand syllabus. Passing rate is around 70% of our department.

It is one of the best B-schools in India.

Higher grade college in Kolkata.

Faculty: Our college initiated diverse courses in multiple disciplines. Textbooks are provided by the college itself by collection some extra charges. Mostly we forced to take test in multiple choice questions thrice in a week. This tests the understanding capacity of the students.

My review of this college.

Faculty: Faculty members are shared in both Delhi and Kolkata campuses. Some of the faculty members fly between 2 campuses. Trade-related faculty members are possibly the best in the country. Most faculty members have extensive industrial and academic experience. IIFT follows a trimester system which is a usual pattern across most B-schools. For each course, then at the end of the trimester, there can be a comprehensive assignment submission that entails research on the industry, market entry strategy, e...

IIFT to an amazing experience and learning.

Faculty: Faculty is very nice, they have Ph.D. and constantly remain in touch with industry. Some faculty like MS Tammanna is very good for trade and agri commodities. Being a very old institution it has attracted lot of good teachers who have done and have experience in teaching IIM A.

Great infrastructure and placements.

Faculty: Electives are decided based on students voting every year. There is an option to go for dual majors. A general misconception about IIFT is that it has a very tough course curriculum for PG degree in international business which is not true. The courses are very smoothly distributed across the 18 months.
