How is the PGPBA course (for business analytics) from Great lakes, Gurgaon? Is doing a course or certification helpful for career profile change?

BB

Analytics is the science of extracting insights from sets of raw data using statistics and Business Analytics used by committed organizations to the data-fueled decision-making process.

You will explore data to find new patterns and relationships between different variables with the help of statistical excavation and structuring by quantitative analysis. Then you will predict the results by predictive modeling and predictive analytics.

PGPBA is a course for executives hence it is scheduled on weekends. It doesn't offer any placement assistance either. But if you're truly inclined, it'll be more like an added skill on your resume. Your excellence with this degree will depend on your work experience and your chosen domain in analytics.

The Business Analytics program is much better than the executive course and if you go for a full-time one, then it'll be even better for your career prospects. Also, Great Lakes does have a good national reputation and the faculty and the syllabus would be the same at all the centers.

This one year Pune PGPBA is a full-time course and part of SCMHRD. You will get a lot of hands-on experience on various processes linked with Marketing, Operations, Risk, Human Resources, Finance, Digital Marketing, and Hadoop.

I am very passionate about wildlife and forests. Should doing an MBA from IIFM Bhopal help me to do a job that will satisfy my passion?

ST

Studied at Indian Institute of Forest Management (IIFM), Bhopal (2019)

Yes, it is natural that when you are applying for a course in Wildlife, you are bound to encompass aspects of Wildlife as well, which would be a crucial part of the course. This includes Ecosystem Management, Wildlife Conservation, Forestry, and Environment.

The most interesting fact here is that once you complete your course on Wildlife from IIFM, Bhopal you would manage to grab a golden opportunity for yourself to work with reputed wildlife organizations like World Wildlife Fund (WWF), MP Tiger Foundation, MP Forest Department, and many others like that. 

If you are just as passionate about forests and wildlife, you should definitely go for IIFM Bhopal. Perhaps try to connect with alumni for better clarification on your queries as they would have better to explain along with on-ground knowledge.

What is the total cost incurred in doing your MBA from NMIMS Mumbai?

S
Sneha Posted On : February 28th, 2023
Lived in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

The following answer is based on my brother’s experience at NMIMS and may vary from person to person depending on their own personal expenses and standard of living. The table below shows the NMIMS MBA fee structure.

Particulars 

Data

Total Fees

INR 23.90 Lakhs

Hostel fees (Non-Refundable)

INR 2,25,000- 3,00,000

Hostel fees (Refundable)

INR 10,000

From the above data the approximate cost is 26-27 Lakhs. The additional expenses like hanging out, fares, and miscellaneous activities can amount to 1 Lakh. 

Now let’s consider you staying in a flat and not a hostel. The MBA fees remain the same. But the living expenses are considerably cut down. My friend lives in a flat with 5 people and shared her average expenses.

  • The rental expense was 10k
  • The security deposit was 1 lakh
  • 6-8k per month for electricity bills and grocery shopping
  • An additional 2-3k for hanging out 
  • The average auto fare would be 3k per month
  • The rough average is 20k per month and if you calculate the same for 21 months it amounts to 4.2 Lakh.

The total expenses including tuition fees amount to 30-33 Lakhs. I think it’s better to go to a hostel than to a flat.

Which MBA college should I choose from IIM (A,B, C) , NMIMS, FMS and MDI?

SM
Singdhanjan Mitra Posted On : April 1st, 2022
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Kashipur (2021)

For these B-School, your preference order should be IIM A > IIM C (Finance) or IIM B (if specialization isn’t a factor) > FMS > MDI. NMIMS isn’t in the same league as the others. 

IIM brand value has its advantages. You can benefit a lot, if you are pursuing your MBA from IIM A, B, and C. But the IIMs charge high fees. IIM A MBA fees are INR 23 Lakhs. While FMS has negligible course fees and offers high ROI. FMS Delhi placements are comparable to IIM A, B, and C. 

So, the choice comes down to brand value vs. ROI. If you want good placements and a high return on investment, choose FMS.

Which is better, IMI Delhi PGDM or IMT-G PGDM Finance?

AB
Ankit Bhansali Posted On : March 3rd, 2023
MBA from International Management Institute (Graduated 2021)

Both the options you mentioned, IMI Delhi PGDM and IMT G Finance are good in their own individual aspects. So you should rather be asking which is better for you. Now this depends on what you really want from your PGDM. By choosing PGDM Finance you will limit yourself only to the Finance sector, whereas a PGDM core will give you a chance to explore various domains before selecting your specialization. The former is a good option if you are certain about your interest in Finance and want to excel in that sector no matter what while the latter is good if you are open to all options.

Talking about IMI Delhi in general, the B School offers an abundance of opportunities through student bodies and other student driven activities. Moreover the additional locational advantage is what makes it a fairly good option. The batch size is also not too big and thus balances the student teacher ratio.

Placements are pretty decent at IMI Delhi. The IMI Delhi average package (overall) offered during 2023 placements was INR 17.01 LPA. For PGDM, PGDM (B&FS), and PGDM (HR) the average package stood at INR 17.20 LPA, INR 16.48 LPA, and INR 15.58 LPA, respectively.

The primary highlight of the B School is its student exchange program wherein students from foreign universities join the B School for a fixed period while students from IMI Delhi visit a foreign university in exchange.

All these factors make IMI Delhi a very good choice in comparison to IMT G.

How is life after doing MBA from PUMBA?

DS
Divya Shukla Posted On : June 28th, 2021
Studied at FTII Pune (2018)

Life gets quite boring after pursuing MBA from the Department of Management Sciences, Pune. One of my friends studied at the Department of Management Sciences, Pune, and I will state some facts about how graduating from PUMBA looks like.

After graduating from PUMBA you will miss all those days of fun that you have spent there. Late-night birthday parties, gossip with friends, you will surely gonna miss all those.

  • Once you step into the corporate world you will get no leisure time and work will be your first priority.
  • You cannot enjoy yourself at parties as you have a lot of workloads.
  • PUMBA students are well settled in their chosen sector after graduating.
  • You have to make your life by yourself and the institute cannot do much for you. It can guide you and prepare you, but ultimately it will depend on your capability.

Therefore, if you are thinking of joining the PUMBA, then go ahead with it. Life in college, as well as life after that, will be good.

Which must one choose: M.Tech. from IIT Bombay or MBA from IIM Bangalore?

AB
Arun Balakrishnan Posted On : February 27th, 2023
Startup Enthusiast, Biker, Music Lover, Cricketer

An MTech from IIT Bombay and an MBA from IIM Bangalore are two very different options. While one focuses on technological aspects the other focuses on managerial aspects. So before even dwelling on the worth of the courses individually you should self-analyze your inclinations and choose one path you are sure about.

Jot down your short and long-term goals. What exactly are you willing to do in your life apart from earning money? Are you more inclined to the corporate world or are the technical elements that attract you more? Having clarity of goals and understanding of what you want from your life is the primary determining factor for choosing your college as well as course.

Objectively, both courses offer a plethora of job prospects and you will gain a lot by choosing any of the two. But making a wise decision here is most important. Choosing an MBA just because it has good career prospects despite having an interest in technology is deluding yourself. You cannot attain success unless you are sincerely passionate about the field you are pursuing.

Which one is better MBA from FMS Delhi or IIT Delhi?

SG
Sushmita Gupta Posted On : April 5th, 2023
studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi

It is not a brainer that an MBA from FMS Delhi is a much better choice than IIT Delhi. IIT Delhi's MBA program is not even close to that if FMS and both are poles apart. If you want your MBA degree to be valuable enough to shape your career drastically, FMS is the one for you. 

Here are a few pointers as to why I am so strongly in favor of FMS Delhi:

Ranking: One of the most valued ranking systems, IIRF ranks DMS IITD MBA 14 out of 44 colleges in India while FMS is ranked 5 out of 44 colleges in India in 2023.

Fees: IIT Delhi offers MBA at around INR 10.4 Lakhs (for 2 years) while FMS has very low fees of around INR 96,000 per year. This is almost 1/4th of the fees of the MBA program offered at IIT Delhi despite being way ahead in terms of brand value.

Placements: Being one of the premier B-schools in the country, it offers excellent placements that almost par with the top IIMs and its placements are nowhere comparable to IIT Delhi’s placements.

Particulars 

FMS Delhi

DMS IIT Delhi

Highest package 

INR 1.23 CPA

INR. 36.70 LPA

Average package 

INR 34.1 LPA

INR 21.90 LPA

Median package

INR 31 LPA

INR 20.60 LPA

Top sectors 

Consulting, Marketing

Sales & Marketing, Strategy & Consulting

Top Recruiters 

Accenture Strategy, Airtel, Amazon American Express, Bain & Co, BCG etc

Rockwell Automation, Texas Instruments, ICICI, Optum, Medtronic, GE Healthcare


 

ROI: One does not even need to think twice before saying that FMS Delhi offers a much higher return on investment than IIT Delhi with much lower fees and placement opportunities notches higher.

Many times people forgo offers from top IIMs just for FMS because of no financial burden.
