The college location is good. It is surrounded by mountains.
Placements: The average salary package of the college is 9 LPA, which is considered good. The marketing department boasts a 100% placement rate compared to other streams. Both on-campus and off-campus placements are available. The placement cell brings good companies and there are chances of PPO also all the students were placed last year.
Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are very good, with decent room accommodations. However, students from North and Northeast India may face challenges with the food options available. In the second year, students can choose to either continue living in the hostel or move to rented apartments, which typically cost around Rs. 10,000 to 15,000 monthly. The hostel fee is Rs. 1,50,000 per year.
Faculty: The interview process is relatively easy, which may make it challenging to select highly qualified candidates. The class size is approximately 60 students, and the course fee is Rs. 3,75,000 per year.
Other: I selected this course for better job opportunities for future growth. At the time of admission and placement, they said different things. They should add more grounds for the interview.

My review about this college.
Placements: Pune Institute of Business Management provides two types of internships to the students, one in winter for a period of 1–2 months and the other in the summer period, which is about 2–3 months (SIP). During my winter internship, I was placed in a startup company that deals in the insurance sector, while my friends were placed in companies like Pantaloons, etc. Placement in our college depends upon the ability of the students. Companies with a maximum package of 16 LPA and a minimum package of 4 LPA are attracted to the college. Beyond this, job opportunities and profiles are allotted as per company preference.
Infrastructure: Everything and anything for the development of students, easy and simple, quite complex in a few areas. More objective than subjective. The curriculum matches the current market scenario and is adaptive to new things. Students must stay in the hostel for the first year, as they also provide a bus facility from the hostel to the college. The hostel is well maintained, and maids are there who clean the hostel daily, including washrooms, floors, and everything. Hostels are spacious and hygienic, with one warden, guards, and one faculty member staying there in the hostel. Each flat is allocated to 4 students.
Faculty: Excellent and very supportive. The way of teaching is best in favor of students. All faculty members have doctorates from different universities and are highly experienced. Students should focus on their aim along with extracurricular activities. Faculty members support every part of your life during your education as well as in the future. There are around 4 semesters in a two-year MBA course where 30 marks are with the college, which consists of class participation and attendance. The next 20 marks are based on an online exam, and the rest 50 marks are in the form of a written examination.

My review about this college.
Placements: Placements are dominated by IT companies like Wipro, TCS, Infosys, Capgemini, IBM, etc. Offering packages as per industry standards for freshers. Samsung, Microsoft, Deloitte US, Amdocs, Maruti, Tata Motors, Sapoornji Polonji, and several PSUs like BHEL, NTPC, HPCL, IOCL, TCIL, CDOT, etc., visited campus. Packages are in the range of 3 LPA - 12 LPA. Few internship opportunities are provided by the college on campus. I did my internship locally at All India Radio at the request of the department. Stipend is not offered. Few students get offers of internships in other big companies every year.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are very good as compared to the other colleges. There are separate hostels for boys and girls. The infrastructure is very good as it is given in new building. The rooms are very clean and washrooms fittings are of jaguars so it is very well.
Faculty: Faculty members have very good knowledge. They let us solve our problems effectively giving proper guidance which is crucial now-a-days. They actually help us to evolve ourselves. Whenever you have a problem go freely contact faculty members. We have experienced faculty members. PIBM also has some visiting faculty members who have industry experience of more than 10+ years and also into teaching. Most of the faculty members are MBA graduates and Ph.D. holders from some of the reputed colleges in the country. Talking about the exams for MBA/PGDM, the exams in both programs are semester-wise exams. PIBM is one of the top management colleges offering two-year full-time MBA/PGDM courses. The course plan is very well designed for the students as there are 4 semesters. Exam is held every 6 months, and internals are there like they happen every 2 months.

Q:   Can non-tech students at PIBM learn AI and cloud technologies easily?
A: 

Yes, non-tech students at PIBM can learn AI and cloud technologies with the right guidance and learning approach. For MBA and PGDM students, these subjects are usually introduced from a business application perspective rather than deep technical programming. This means students first understand how AI helps in marketing, finance, HR, operations, customer service, and decision-making, while cloud technologies are taught as tools that support digital business processes and data management.

Students from commerce, arts, or non-engineering backgrounds often adapt well when concepts are explained in a practical and simplified manner. Many management students do not need advanced coding knowledge to start learning AI tools, dashboards, automation platforms, or cloud-based business solutions. What matters more is curiosity, regular practice, and willingness to learn new technologies.
