MBA in Marketing & Finance, Indian Institute of Foreign Trade, Delhi (Graduated 2017)

It's important to research the institution's alum base, the profiles offered during placement, the corporate competitions won by the business school, and the brands that frequently visit for recruitment when you are considering a suitable college for an MBA in international business. 


In terms of IIFT, it is considered a niche college for international business. However, it's important to keep in mind that the competition for admission is very tough compared to the Delhi School of Economics. It's important to keep in mind that DSE and IIFT are not in the same league. It's important for you to conduct your research and weigh your options before making a decision.

M.A. Economics, Delhi School of Economics (2017)

Delhi School of Economics, Madras School of Economics, and Mumbai School of Economics and Public Policy are reputed institutes for offering quality education in Economics. If you are considering the Mumbai region, Mumbai University’s Kalina campus is a good institute to do a Master’s in economics. 

  • The college has a good syllabus which covers almost 8 core papers in the first two semesters. 
  • Students get the opportunity of doing a summer internship which is assisted by MSEPP. These internships ensure students can confidently enter the corporate world after completing their courses.
