How does IIM, Ahmedabad teach an MBA?
An MBA is not a course that can be taught. According to my friends at IIM Ahmedabad, the institute offers the students an official learning platform that helps them in learning management in a curriculum structured for around 18–19 months.
- There is an interactive environment where teachers discuss various cases with students.
- The cases discussed include the dos and don'ts for companies and managers.

- Overall, diversity is great for learning, overall growth, and development.

- The course curriculum will prepare you for real-life job experiences and help you to learn the different aspects of finance, marketing, HR, IT, in addition to the basics of business law, public policies, etc.
- You would surely attain a good overview and understanding of the various functions and aspects of the management domain.
The students enrolled are:
- Fresher or people with 4–5 years of work experience.
- From almost every region of India.
- From International exchanges that are offered by the Institution.
- The students have the profession ranging from Dentists to Engineers, Architects to economists.
In conclusion, the overall experience that the institute offers can teach you a lot about the various aspects of management along with what the curriculum offers.
What are the different opportunities for students pursuing a PGDIM (in operations/supply chain management) from NITIE?
I think I can give you an idea about the opportunities that you will receive at NITIE since a have a few friends who graduated from the institute.
- NITIE Mumbai is a premier b-school under the Ministry of HRD in India. It is famously known as the “Mecca of Operations and Supply Chain Management” in India.
- The alumni base of NITIE is 50+ years old. They work as the lead in many companies across the globe.
- NITIE is located in the financial capital of the country, with many company headquarters within a radius of 10-15 km. Which is beneficial in terms of placements and exposure.

What is the average salary package for a PGPM course at SPJIMR when it comes to placements?
During SPJIMR Placements 2022, the average salary of the PGDM students was higher than the PGPM students. The average package statistics are

|
Average Salary |
INR 23.6 LPA |
|
Top 25% Average Salary |
INR 31 LPA |
|
Top 50% Average Salary |
INR 28.7 LPA |
The average salary is a rather misleading aspect to determine the worth of a college because the highly inflated results can pull the average towards one side. This works in the favor of the college and most times students end up getting misled.
However, SPJIMR was able to maintain decent placements even during the pandemic. Its one-year PGPM course enjoys a strong reputation among companies and witnessed some of the best CTC packages against the eligible roles and profiles.
How can I crack the IIM Ranchi HRM interview process?
An HRM interview may be similar to other MBA interviews, but it's likely that you'll be asked "Why HR?" If you have experience in the field or have studied HRM, it will be easier to answer this question. However, if you're switching fields, you'll need to explain your interest in detail. It's important to stay honest and not try to deceive the interviewers, even if HR isn't your first choice. The rest of the interview process will be similar to other IIM interviews.
One student with a finance background shared his personal experience of being asked this question during an HRM interview, even though he had already received offers from other IIMs and HRM wasn't his first choice.
What are the prospects of doing an MBA in tourism and hospitality from IIM Sirmaur? How would it compare with core MBA courses from other private AA and A grade MBA institutes?
Both the courses give an edge to each other and cannot be compared. MBA T and HM are specialized courses that should be taken only if you are inclined toward the field. It helps you to establish a career and knowledge of the Tourism and Hospitality industry.
The 2-year MBA flagship course has been standing for more than 2 years and therefore its curriculum cannot be compared to that of these recently launched courses. Some perks of these courses are
- Become a part of the legacy.
- Learn how to build everything from scratch by founding or becoming part of clubs and committees.
- International Job opportunities
- Himachal is famous for its tourism because of its beautiful landscapes. The tourism sector of Himachal Pradesh contributes 7% to the state GDP.
- You can contribute to promoting Tourism, increasing its capacities to serve foreigners while remaining settled in your hometown.
So this course is very beneficial for people who have a keen interest in tourism.
Should I join the PGP of IIM Shillong?
Asking others if you should join a certain program is illogical. I think it’s a decision that you have to take solely yourself. People can guide you in your decision but cannot make the decision on your behalf. That is exactly what I am here for. I will list down the parameters you should consider while making your decision. The rest is up to you.
- Try looking at other available options at hand. Comparing your options is a good way to decide on your B School.
- Ask yourself if you are confident enough to drop a year and attempt for CAT again just to try your shot at a better B School.
- Check whether the domain specialization of IIM, the companies that visit the campus and the roles they offer are in line with your career interests.
Once you are sure about these things, making a good decision will become easier for you.
