It depends on which NMIMS you’re talking about. If you’re talking about NMIMS Mumbai. Then I would choose NMIMS. 

Location:  Between NMIMS & SCMHRD, Mumbai is one the best location to do an MBA as a large and good pool of companies will come to the campus.

Brand name- NMIMS has a better reputation and brand value then compared to SCMHRD.  NMIMS stands proud as a Deemed-to-be University offering multiple disciplines across multiple campuses. What started as an institute in a small building has caught the attention of the world, thanks to its 17 specialized schools

Placements - NMIMS Mumbai average package offered to MBA Core and MBA HR students stood at INR 23.07 LPA and INR 19.40 LPA, respectively.

Is the SCMHRD good for marketing too, or just HR?

I believe SCMHRD is an amazing college for all managerial fields.

The HR stream is the most popular because it began with an emphasis on Personnel Management and Industrial Relations, drawing on the experiences of seasoned managers in and around Mumbai, Pune, and Nashik.

SCMHRD has been working to improve its resources and infrastructure since its beginnings. Placements have also improved. The faculty and the institution's reach have likewise grown steadily during the last decade.

As a result, admission to SCMHRD will be ideal for an MBA (Marketing) candidate. If you have the opportunity, please join.

Usually, the application number varies every year, hence it would not be precise to pinpoint one particular number. This goes without saying that SCMHRD has a rigorous process for selecting candidates both for their MBA (Regular) and MBA (Executive) Programmes. Currently, there are a total of around 13 students enrolled in the Executive MBA in SCMHRD.

How different are the career paths of individuals who pursue their MBA in HR from XIMB/SIBM/SCMHRD as compared to those from XLRI/TISS/MDI?

SK
Sabitha Krutarth Posted On : May 18th, 2023

The answer can be divided into two main parts: Curriculum and Placements.

In terms of Curriculum, TISS is rated as having the best. Colleges whose core degree is not HR will be at a disadvantage when it comes to curriculum.

In terms of Placements, XLRI is ranked as having the best package and profile offerings, followed by a tie between TISS and SCMHRD. The colleges whose core is not HR will not offer as good a package post-MBA as compared to the colleges with core HR competencies.

In terms of packages offered, XLRI can be ranked the highest, followed by SCMHRD and TISS in a tie, and then MDI, SIBM, and XIMB.

Which is the best option to pursue an MBA in finance amongst IMI Delhi IMT Ghaziabad XIMB and SCMHRD? I am hoping to receive admission from these colleges but I am really confused.

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : June 6th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Out of all these colleges, IMI Delhi seems to be the best option for a person looking to major in finance. IMT Ghaziabad has been known for its marketing for a long time and SCMHRD, as the name suggests, is an amazing institution for HR. XIMB is also a decent option for finance but IMI seems to edge it out due to the following reasons-

  • Intellectual capital: IMI New Delhi is one of the premier B-schools in the country. The faculty of IMI is renowned and they are among one of the best minds in the country.
  • Alumni Base: The institute is 42 years old, so the alumni base is very strong. Some of the top leaders of the industry are graduates from IMI.
  • Batch Strength: A small batch enhances the overall classroom experience. IMI has a decent batch strength. Neither too big nor too small. PGDM: 235 seats, PGDM BFS: 50 seats, PGDM HR: 45 seats
  • Placements: The average package of students at IMI for 2023 was 17.01 Lacs and recruiters for finance included American Express, Bank of America, Barclays, and HSBC among others.

In my opinion, the best option among the given colleges is SCMHRD’s finance. I am not saying this on my own, but the data reflects the results. Let’s check the final placements for each college in the finance area.

The average package offered in the finance area at IMI Delhi is 17.64 lac per annum for the last batch. For IMT Ghaziabad, this figure is 14 LPA. XIMB is a little better than these colleges, with an average package of 20 LPA, but SCMHRD excels all of these with an average package of 22 LPA and the highest package of 27 LPA.

If one has a choice of SCMHRD (all branches) and TISS, which one should one go for?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : June 2nd, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

It would certainly depend on whether ROI is an important factor to you or not. SCHMRD and TISS both come under the top tier colleges. 

TISS doesn’t provide an MBA degree but still one of the major HR companies visit the institute for final placements. You need to understand that what you’re paying and what you’re getting in return matters a lot from a longer term perspective. 

The other benefit that you get if you are studying at TISS is their small batch size and less competition. Mind you, I am not saying that competition is not healthy but sometimes, when you’re so focused on gettting the highest package offered and competing against 400 students just like you, you might miss out on the learning experiences.

What is the required criteria by the company who visited in MBA colleges like SIBM in Pune, ICFAI in Hyderabad, and SCMHRD in Pune during the placement?

SN
Sagar Namdev Posted On : May 19th, 2023

There is no specific criterion by any company that visits campus. A few criteria are like what percentage of the batch is placed. If many students are unplaced, then the company can find a good pool of students they can hire. Some companies specifically look for work-experience candidates. For example, ICICI Lombard visits such campuses and asks for a candidate with at least 24 months of work experience. It all depends on how the placements committee is negotiating with the companies and what are the requirements of the companies. Sometimes they mention the number of candidates they are looking to hire. Sometimes, they don’t tell any number.
