How is BBA from IGNOU?

RM
Rishabh Malhotra Posted On : November 3rd, 2022
Assistant manager-Inside Sales at Koenig Solutions (company)

Everything in life has advantages and disadvantages. Here are the advantages and disadvantages of BBA from IGNOU:

Pros:

  • IGNOU offers a BBA with a Specialization in Retailing (rather than a general BBA), which broadens your opportunities in the retail sector beyond sales and marketing.

  • Every year, you receive a certificate. As a result, you can begin working immediately after finishing your 12th grade and continue to advance each year. You don't have to wait three years for a degree before you can get a job. You can study while working.

  • Every year, you are given a project that allows you to gain real-world experience in the retail industry and complete it in retail organisations.

  • Retail Associations of India is collaborating with IGNOU-BBA. You will receive the best curriculum for it.

  • The course is written in simple language that is easy to understand, and it includes the best knowledge in the retail specialisation.

  • The cost of this course is the lowest of any university that offers distance education for BBA.

 

Cons:

  • There is no Math or Statistics subject in the entire BBA course from IGNOU, so it is entirely theoretical.

  • Unfortunately, some prestigious MBA programmes look for a Math subject in the course of graduation when accepting applications. However, there will be many colleges that will accept your degree.

  • Similarly, some government jobs require a Math subject as part of your bachelor's degree programme. However, there will be plenty of opportunities for you in the government. as well as the private sector for employment You can still apply for exams such as Bank PO, SSC, and UPSC.

  • The same exposure found in regular BBA will never be found in distance BBA. The reason for this is that you will not learn how to give presentations in front of an audience, which is essential if you are studying BBA.

This course is not offered in every city. So, before enrolling in IGNOU's BBA programme, you should contact the IGNOU regional centre in your city. Because this course is taken by a small number of students, it is only available in a few cities. However, when comparing distance universities for the course of BBA, it is recommended that IGNOU is the best because of its lower cost, reputation, and educational standard.

How is life at IIIT Sri City, apart from academics? How are its campus and hostel life?

SP
Shaurya Pandey Posted On : March 16th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Sri City

You will definitely have a great time in Sri City and probably not feel like going back home after the amazing four years you will spend here. One of my friends has experienced the amazing campus life. He got really attached to this place. You will miss your friends and having fun at 3 am in the morning.

The IFMR canteen is one place where you will eat every possible thing on the menu and not attend classes. You will also end up taking a number of spontaneous trips. Even the small nitty-gritty like not being able to stay awake during class, running around for attendance will become so ingrained in your daily life that you will end up missing them. The teachers here are more like friends instead of professors. You will also miss the happiness of getting an unexpected holiday.

Your hostel room is going to be a place of great memories. It will witness breakups, patch-ups, and you at your best and worse. Sri City and the college will become your second home.

The early morning sunrises, evening strolls around the campus as well as the petrichor of the rain right after the blistering summer in May are things you will come to appreciate. While you might enter as a frightened fresher, you will be leaving as an experienced graduate. You will learn to become independent and will have gone through some of life’s toughest lessons.

In other words, you will come to love this place so much, you will definitely have tears in your eyes as you leave from here on your last day. Some of your best days will be from IIIT Sri City.

What is the order of preference among the following IBS (ICFAI) campuses: Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Dehradun, Gurgaon, or Kolkata?

YA
Yash Arora Posted On : February 21st, 2023
MBA in Marketing, ICFAI Business School, Hyderabad (Graduated 2018)

If you're considering an MBA program, Hyderabad, Mumbai, and Gurgaon are three of the most attractive options based on their placement prospects. Only the Hyderabad, Jaipur, and Dehradun campuses offer an MBA program, while other campuses offer PGPM. If you want a dual degree, you can pursue a PGPM from the campuses offering the program, combined with a distance learning MBA.

The cost of your education is another important factor to consider. The Mumbai and Gurgaon campuses will cost you approximately INR 9 lakhs for PGPM, while the Hyderabad campus charges approximately INR 16 lakhs for an MBA.

In terms of placement statistics, IBS Hyderabad had a 99% placement percentage in 2022 with an average package of INR 8.71 LPA. On the other hand, IBS Mumbai had an average package of INR 7.14 LPA with the highest international and domestic packages of INR 53.45 LPA and INR 15 LPA, respectively. IBS Gurgaon had an average salary of INR 6.81 LPA with the highest international salary of INR 22.18 LPA and the highest domestic salary of INR 11 LPA. The average salary for the top 10% and top 25% was INR 10.06 LPA and INR 8.76 LPA, respectively.

Before making your final decision, it is important to carefully weigh all of these factors. While Hyderabad offers excellent opportunities for development and growth, including a strong club culture, Mumbai and Gurgaon may be better options for you if you are closer to your hometown or primarily concerned about the return on investment.

B.Tech Computer Science, National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2020)

The campus life of NIT Calicut is quite good compared to other institutes, but cannot be considered as a campus with excellent facilities. The campus life mostly depends on how you want to spend your years and cope up with the pressure and life altogether. A generalized overview of NIT Calicut is described below in points.

  • The campus of NIT Calicut is not too huge, with all major buildings nearby to each other. Only the Mega boy’s hostel and Ladies hostel is situated at a separate residential campus. It usually takes 10-15 minutes to commute inside the campus.
  • The campus has enough greenery, but with a lot of rain. There is a problem with water and so, heat is an issue to be survived.
  • There is no such happening place around the campus, except the bus stop and an area known as Kattangal, with a few restaurants and shops. Being about 40 minutes away from the city, students usually take a bus to the city or visit the restaurants nearby.
  • After 9 PM, girls usually don’t prefer going out roaming around the campus. A strict curfew is maintained from 7 PM, in which 1st-year boys maintain the discipline. Senior boys have their own tricks to roam around anytime. The college is a little discriminative about these rules, but such situations are changing slowly.
  • Classes run for variable durations and depend upon the department and year. Some have classes for less than 4 hours and some about 6-7 hours. 
  • The hostels are NIT Calicut are quite old, with the mega hostels being comparatively newer. Even the quality of rooms and internet facility is better in Mega hostels. 
  • The messes are of various types in the hostels. Seniors get to switch messes. The quality of food at mess depends upon the contractor. 
  • Coming to sports facilities, there is an average football field, a rocky hockey field, a tennis court, a volleyball court, and 2 outdoor basketball courts. There is an auditorium with 2 table tennis boards and 3 badminton courts. The football team of the college has done well in recent years.
  • The labs are quite well equipped, with good internet. The software systems lab has the best internet on the campus and is open to all students. All the hostels have sufficient internet facilities too. There is a quiet library, a study center, and a digital library that is free from chaos and peaceful enough to sit and study.

Among all, students on the campus learn to adjust to circumstances, make friends, explore the environment and make the best use of available resources in NIT Calicut. The campus life is all about fun and interests, and NIT Calicut is a place worth it.
