MBA Marketing & Finance, Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar (2017)

MBF (Master's in Business Finance) is a course under the Xavier School of Commerce (XSC). It is important to note that XIMB and XSC are separate schools coming under the umbrella of Xavier University Bhubaneswar (XU). Some key highlights related to this course are 

  • MBF is a specialized program spread over a 2-year period divided into 4 semesters
  • The course curriculum has 84 credits of classroom instruction and other credit components including two sets of elective specializations - "Banking and Insurance", and "Finance"
  • Additionally, the program requires project work carrying 10 credits
  • It covers immersion courses on current issues, seminars, workshops and interaction with industry experts. 
  • In the first two semesters, students get inputs on the basic areas such as Financial Accounting, Financial Management, Corporate Laws, Statistics, Economics, Research Methodology, MIS, Quantitative Techniques, and many more. These core courses set the foundation for more advanced courses such as Project Planning, Appraisal and Finance, Behavioral Finance, Financial Modeling, Business Analytics, Corporate Tax Planning, and so on. 
  • In the fourth-semester students will be required to opt for the electives of their choice. Currently, two sets of elective specializations are ‘Banking and Insurance’, and ‘Finance’, out of which each student will have to select one. 
  • While the program covers a wide range of courses, 'finance’ remains the main focus area. 
  • The knowledge base of the students also gets further strengthened by summer projects, immersion courses on current issues, seminars, workshops and interaction with industry experts.
  • There are various leadership talks and conclaves organized by InfinX, the functional committee of the MBF program

The course is a good option for the qualitative development of an individual, and details regarding placements and internships can be checked from the official website.

Which is better, ECE at IIT Madras or ECE at IIITH?

A
Admin Posted On : July 1st, 2024

IIT Madras does not offer B.Tech ECE. Instead, it offers B.Tech in Electrical Engineering. The Electrical Engineering department is one of the oldest at IITM. 

  1. Electrical Engineering at IIT Madras: Students in the Electrical Engineering department of IITM secure an admission to top universities like Stanford, UCB, Harvard, Georgia Tech, and The University of Michigan. The highest package offered to Electrical Engineering students of IITM during 2023 placements was INR 68.5 LPA, and the median package is INR 35.89 LPA. 
  2. B.Tech ECE at IIIT H: ECE at IIIT Hyderabad revolves around signal processing. It also includes applied areas such as computer vision and speech, communications, VLSI/embedded systems, robotics, IoT, etc. The highest package offered to B.Tech ECE students of IIIT H was INR 45 LPA during the 2023 placements. The average package for the same year was INR 27.24 LPA for B.Tech ECE.

Both these institutions are highly reputed in the field of engineering, and they offer equally good academics and placements. But I would recommend you opt for Electrical Engineering at IIT Madras since it has a bigger brand name and a richer legacy. Moreover, Electrical students at IITM receive even better packages as compared to ECE students at IIIT Hyderabad.

Which are the top branded institutes/colleges/university in India like IIM Indore IPM for doing dual courses of BBA+MBA after 12th Commerce?

VS
Vihaan Sharma Posted On : January 12th, 2023
IPM from Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (Graduated 2022)

IPM is a five-year integrated management program that combines either a BBA or BMS with an MBA. Students who want to pursue careers in management and leadership after completing their XIIth or higher secondary education can register for these courses. Only students who are certain of their goals and who are interested in management should enroll in this integrated course because, over the course of five years, they will only learn about business management and how to become the ideal manager.
These integrated programs are unique in that they offer dual degree programs as well. A second entrance exam is not required in order to enroll in a graduate program. To enroll in the course, there is only one entrance exam.
The following list includes some of the top IPM colleges in India along with information on how to apply.

  • IIM Indore launched the IPM program in 2011 for young students who wanted to go into management or leadership after finishing their XII classes. The program's learning objectives are broken down into the first three years of the bachelor's program, and the following two years will follow the PG program's curriculum.
  • IIM Rohtak launched the IPM program in 2019 and was successful in quickly filling 150 seats.

IPMAT is the entrance exam for IPM (as opposed to IPMAT for IIMI), and it has a different exam format and scoring system than IIM I. Following WAT and Interviews at designated IIM R locations, the second round is conducted.

  • The oldest existing university is Mumbai University, which is situated in Mumbai, Maharashtra (1857). With 60 seats available for the course, it offers an integrated management program that divides the first three years into a BMS degree and the final two years into an MBA degree.
  • Following the 12th grade, Jindal Global Business School has developed this innovative and distinctive course of an integrated program that includes BBA(Hons)+MBA and lasts for five years. It is a course that equips students with a global outlook through a special approach to learning and communication. 
Choosing a college wisely has become increasingly important, so students should not only pay attention to the college's physical facilities but also to the curriculum it will use for their semesters. This provides students with a clear picture of the courses they will be taking at that specific college. One thing to keep in mind when reviewing the curriculum is that UG courses shouldn't be repeated in PG courses because this would lessen the integrity of the courses and allow students to observe evolution in them.

Which is better for competitive programming: Jadavpur University or IIEST, Shibpur?

AB
Aditya Bose Posted On : March 17th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur

Any college can be good for competitive programming. It all relies on you to educate yourself, to learn new strategies, and to spend hours coding. 

  • Anudeep Nekkanti is one such example. He was recruited by Google and qualified for ACM ICPC world finals. If you look at the name of his college, it's not one of those elite ones. 
  • There was no competitive programming pattern in BESU/IIEST until recently. But many students have taken competitive programming platforms such as Codechef and HackerRank over the last few years.
  • You can search the Codechef Rating System site to verify it for yourself. You get a college-wise database of the number of students actively engaged in competitive coding and their results using this platform.

Lastly, don't support the myth that the only way to prove yourself as a coder is competitive programming. There are other coding fields as well. In this sense, do not consider that there was no "real coder" in IIEST because there was no competitive coding pattern previously in IIEST (BESU back then). 

Some of the alumni of the institute are working in top companies in India and overseas and have never been interested in competitive coding.

Is CMS, Jain University, a good college for a BBA when compared to Christ?

A
Admin Posted On : May 16th, 2024

I have a friend who studies BBA at CMS, Jain University. On the other hand, I am pursuing my BBA at Christ University.

The academics and faculty for BBA at both the universities is equally good. But in terms of reputation, Christ definitely has an upper hand. Having said that, I would in fact encourage you to pursue a BCom instead of a BBA if you are unsure of your future goals. 

This is because both have more or less the same curriculum, but BCom is more recognized than BBA in India as of now. Moreover, a BCom degree is more affordable too. A BBA will be a good choice only if you are very smart, or else, you’ve already made up your mind on your future goals. 

As far as a BBA degree is concerned, if you have decided to go with this course, I would recommend Christ University over Jain University because it holds a bigger brand value and reputation for management courses.
