Remarks

I applied only to IBS Mumbai and I have not availed of any quota. The minimum marks to apply was 50% above on your degrees and 10th and 12th and the minimum age to apply is 20. The admission process was really smooth even though it was online due to the Covid situation. There was a counselling day for all the IBS aspirants and we got all the information as to how to prepare ourselves for the GD/PI and crucial data was provided such as the placement packages and companies that come to the placement campus.

Course Curriculum Overview

I wanted to gain knowledge about the business world and to give my career a kick start. 1 faculty: 65 students. The faculty's qualifications are PhD or minimum masters in the respective subject and the teaching method are poor. The term exams are held every 2 months and it is very difficult to pass.

Class Size: 65Course Fees: INR 400000 per year

Internships Opportunities

HDFC Life and the role was to research executive intern and no stipend was offered. Employee engagement activities were conducted, screening of resumes, understanding the profile of financial advisors and monitoring their performances.

Placement Experience

From semester 3, students become eligible for campus placements. Many large and small companies visit the campus for giving the student's job opportunities. So far the process hasn't started yet, so no offer has been made until now. 95% of students get placed. After getting the degree, just want to get a good corporate job and settle in.

Fees and Financial Aid

I did not get any scholarship from the college. Financial assistance is fine, I can't say much as I didn't take any loan but they do provide financial assistance on loans from the Bank of Baroda. I am still in semester 3, so actually waiting for the placements.

Campus Life

1.5

I have not been to the campus at all so I don't have any idea about the amenities or neither am I a part of any tech fest. The books are available in the library. There are plenty of clubs that students participate in and gain knowledge about their field.

Interview Experience

3.5

Due to Covid, there wasn't any GD held only personal interviews and the questions that were asked were pretty basic. They just wanted to know the student as a person and their background. I prepared for my personal interviews by practising with my friends and acquaintances.

A Well-Rounded B.Tech Journey with Good Infrastructure, Supportive Faculty, and Growing Career Opportunities

Likes

Faculty members are generally qualified and approachable, and students can seek help with academics and projects.
students should supplement the university curriculum with industry certifications, coding practice, internships, GitHub projects and real-world development work.
There are cultural events, technical activities, clubs, sports and other extracurricular activities. Hostel students can participate fairly actively in campus events.

Dislikes

The main improvement I'd look for would be more advanced, industry-standard laboratory equipment and greater practical exposure.
I couldn't find a reliable current official university figure for the overall girls-to-boys ratio.
The ratio can also differ substantially between CSE, other engineering branches and the university as a whole.

Placement Experience:

Haridwar University provides regular campus-placement opportunities across IT, core engineering and other sectors. The university reports strong overall placement activity, but programme-wise salary and placement data are limited publicly, so students should ask for CSE-specific statistics before admission.

Holistic Review of MBA at IIM Kashipur

Likes

It's a student run campus which means that important decisions regarding students are taken by the student bodies.
The campus is beautiful and lush. The architecture of buildings are well though of made to keep buildings cool during summers and hot during winters.
The campus is very happening. Several cultural events occur.

Dislikes

As the town Kashipur is not very developed, there is not much of metro-city life or such amenities
The boys to girls ratio for core program is 4:1 and the opposite for the analytics program which makes the class interactions disproportionate, It should be uniform.
You can't order food from online platforms here as the city is remote so one has to resort to the options present on campus which turns out to be pretty limited in number and quality.

Placement Experience:

As soon as the second year starts, companies start coming for placements. These include ICICI bank, Wellsfargo, Genpact, Amazon, TresVista, Havells, TVS, Tech Mahindra etc. The highest package goes around to be 40-50 Lacs while average is around 14-15 Lacs. Almost all get placed while the rest opt-out from the process either for off-campus offers or pursuing higher education.
