Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum is at par and relevant compared with other courses being offered elsewhere. There is semester system in college and a total of 4 semesters in 2 years. Exams are conducted in 2 parts, Mid Term and end term.

Placement Experience

3.5

The placements are taken care by the corporate relations committee as well as there are plenty of opportunities to get PPI or PPO through B school competitions. Each and every student gets the opportunity to sit for placement for all the big brands and the college makes sure they are placed

College Events

3.5

Teach is conducted by Samatva committee of SCMHRD Neev is conducted by committee NEEV Odyssey is conducted by Guest Lecture Team of College Stratomania is conducted by Entrepreneurship and communication cell War of Divisions is conducted by Sports Committee Symbiosis Premier League is conducted by Sports Committee

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure of the college is on the higher side compared to other MBA Colleges of India. The college is charging higher than the others. Some aspirants might find it difficult to pay the fees and I would recommend them to study and work harder so that they could get into FMS or colleges in which the fees is low and the return on investment is also good

Hostel Facilities

The hostel facilities are not at par with what is being offered by IIMs. The room is shared by 3 students. The building is old and the infrastructure is poor. The lifts are old and the college is somewhat conservative with respect to timings and rules. Students have to sign attendance every night

Admission

Symbiosis University conducts SNAP aptitude test through which they give admission to various colleges under Symbiosis University. SCMHRD is one of the best HR college of India. The admission process begins in 1st week of February and lasts till 3rd week. Calls to students are made based on merit

Faculty

The faculty of the college is experienced in their respective subjects as well as have business acumen to share their acquired knowledge through insightful lectures. There is also experiential learning through which students learn a lot.

College Review

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible for campus placements from starting of the second year. The placements commence then and continue till everyone is placed. Being a young college, the placements are improving on a yearly basis with new companies being onboarded. The average package stands around 12-13LPA.

SDA Bocconi Asia Center, IMB ( International Masters in Business)

Reviewed on May 3, 2020

Remarks:

I had honestly applied in only a selected number of colleges, as I was doing really well in my coaching and was always among the top 2. Since, I was expecting a lot from myself, it created performance pressure and I went blank during the actual CAT examination. So SDA bocconi was among the top 2 options that I had. It is less than a decade old and has still managed to provide good placements. The most fascinating part is the entire semester in Bocconi,Milan which is the 21st best college in the world and 7th in Europe. I also spoke to many aluminis and hardly got to hear anything that will stop me from taking admission in SDA bocconi. Plus, the advantage of the college being in a city like Mumbai has it's own advantages.
