Remarks

Top technical college of India, Exposure would help me in my post graduation, be it core or non-core, opportunities provided by the college including in culturals, technical, management. Top faculty of the world, good accessibility to reach home, freedom provided and exposure to Bombay

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

I chose mechanical engineering because my father himself is a mechanical engineer hence my interest in it. Course curriculum is appropriately structured to help learn the basics of core mechanical and allowing for a wide range of fields to be explored. The academics are not too heavy but relative grading keeps pushing you to do better. The professors are helpful and are interested in giving out projects to students who want to delve deep into core.

Class Size: 150Course Fees: INR 1256000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Internship opportunities are similar to placements. Similar profile of companies come and the term duration varies from 1-2.5 months.

Placement Experience

Great placement opportunities for core as well as non core. Students sit in placements in the pre-final semester. Profiles include software, data-science, data analyst, apm, hft, and many more. Highest package is in crores, average package is roughly 10 lpa

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fees is semester wise and includes hostel and mess charges. There are many waive offs and scholarships available for needy students based on category and income. MCM scholarship is one such which covers the tuition fee. Loans are also available at low interest rates.

Campus Life

Life at campus is really happening. There are a lot of opportunities available from core projects under professors, technical teams such as Racing or Satellite team, Cultural activities including music, dance, standup comedy, top notch sports facilities and exposure to non-core through teams like ShARE Consulting, or Non Institute bodies. A lot of freedom is granted to students allowing them to explore their interests.

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.

Remarks:

College management is highly supportive of student needs. The management listens to student issues and tries to solve it with proper thinking and strategy. The college and the composition, though is extremely dynamic and diverse, students live together peacefully in harmony, supporting and helping each other whenever needed. Though being it's initial stages of setup, the college faces certain issues with placements and internships, but slowly with every batchs learnings, these are also being cured. This ensures that students are always on their toes and ready to take on challenges.
