S.V. Institute of Management

Knowing your priorities can help you decide which school, School of Petroleum Management (SoM) or S.V. Institute of Management (SVIM), is better. SoM strengths are NIRF #94 MBA ranking (India), good industry connections, specialisation in energy and infrastructure management, and reasonable prices. Drawbacks are Small programme focus (energy mostly), relatively new university, and location (Gandhinagar) may not be suitable for everyone.The SVIM strengths are good placements, a central location (Tirupati), a wide range of MBA curriculum options, an established institute (formed 1989), and an NIRF #34 MBA ranking (India), and drawbacks are less emphasis on the energy industry and more expensive than SoM.
