MBA in Logistics and Supply Chain Management - Batch of 2021

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Overall, the best College for an MBA in Logistics and Supply Chain Management course.

Placements: An MBA is acceptable, but placement opportunities for other branches are nonexistent. Not a single company from the civil branch comes to our college. MBA student's score was 93% in 2018. Maximum stipend for a student is 45k monthly, which I believe is quite favorable for a newcomer. Highest level positions include Financial Analyst, Financial Manager, and others.

Infrastructure: The college building has 8 floors, and it is the tallest building in Tamil Nadu. The college has a Wi-Fi facility in the computer lab, and the classrooms have blackboards with display devices. A library of non-new books. The college offers separate hostels for boys and girls.

Faculty: Faculty is average, where most of them are new faculty with very little teaching experience, like freshers. Good teaching is average, not highly qualified teachers. Most of the curriculum was one-size-fits-all and often repeated. Course is not updated as required by the project.
