I would not advise you to go for Institute of Management Studies, Noida. My suggestion will depends upon what other options you do have. If you are not getting admission is any college for BJMC, then you may take admission in IMS, Noida. The reason why I am saying this is its affiliation, infrastructure and Placement. This college is affiliated with a low graded state university of Uttar Pradesh i.e., Chaudhry Charan Singh University, Meerut. This is not the good University, course curriculum is very old. Second reason is its infrastructure. Although, it is located at very good location, connectivity is good. Surrounding area is also good. But, the internal structure of the college is worst. Canteen is bad. No cleanliness at all. And, the third thing is it's placement. You cannot get the good placement opportunity here. Because, this college is not much famous for this BJMC course. They are only specialized in management course (BBA, PGDM). So, try to find out any other college.

Hello,
Design schools are started and run by state government. There are states and there are such schools. In some cases, the schools of designs run by states are simply superb while in some cases these are not worth mentioning. Hence, all cannot be painted by same brush.
What used to happen in olden times was the beurocratic approach that resulted in late decisions, which in turn hampered the untrammeled growth of these schools. Decision making used to be lethargic and hence, placements were also problematic.
But, with Advent of time, things have indeed changed. Agility has replaced lethargy. There is a great amount of hand holding of students as well as industry. This has happened due to different actions by government. Placements, hence nowadays are quite dynamically managed by even state design Schools. Students need not worry on this aspect, at least now a days.
