Gemological Institute of America Surat, Diploma, Diamond Grading

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum is very well designed that is not at all hectic. Many topics were taught to us such as structure of diamond, their management followed by its detail analysis. The curriculum contained theory as well as research subjects in a good proportion.

Placement Experience

If you choose to pursue this course, let me tell you that there are many available job opportunities in this field. Some of them includes : working in gem and mining industry and you can even work in jewelry retailing business.

Fee Structure And Facilities

According to me the fee structure is not at all expensive. It is a five days course and the annual cost is approximately 30,000 which is an affordable price. Though, for some this amount may seem to be high but believe me this is the best institute if you want to study about gems.

Campus Life

There are many labs available in our institute with best technologies. For our research work there are separate labs which are fully furnished and contains every facility there. The infrastructure of our institute is really spacious which contains facilities like sports, library and recreational rooms. The calm aura of the campus motivates me to study even more.

Admission

The eligibility criteria in my college is just 18+ in age and a class 12th certificate. Our college does not have any merit based exam the admissions are done by first come first serve basis. Along with this the candidate should have good proficiency in English language.

Faculty

4.5

Our faculty consists of well experienced teachers from all over the country. The teachers are very passionate to teach their respective subjects. They also helped us in many ways and provided us proper guidance and support.

Likes

the fee structure of the mba is very less compared to the other colleges
good classmates because people come from cmat and topppes only get admission
placements are good if you are satisfied with 6/7 lakhs a year

Dislikes

infrastructure of the campus is very poor
the faculties are average except one two, more from a teaching bg rather than corporate experience.
for me the average package is less, and some people also left by getting placed

Placement Experience:

good placements, avg is 6.5/7 ctc and in hand avg goes arounf 5 lpa, highest 17 lpa, lowest 4 lpa, median should be around 5 lpa, this is as per my batch(batch 23-25) it is similar in other batches and 80/90% students get placed easily if they are good and the placement cordinator also try to get the rest placed where the batch have achieves 100% almost every year. there are options after college if you dont get placement from college because it is core mba with subjects marketing finance and hr.
