What Students Say

Very strict when it comes to attendance.

Course Curriculum Overview

Curriculum is well designed as per industry standards and we get to experience live examples and learning opportunities. We also get to perform live projects which helps is gain insights into industry knowledge along with SIP Visiting faculties and guest lectures also help us with connections

Class Size: 180Course Fees: INR 880000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Currently I'm working with Infoegde (Naukri.com) I have a stipend of INR 20,000 My peers are working in companies named- Kalapatru, 99 Acres, KONE, Pitambari, Dabur My role is Sales and marketing consultant and my task is to Shadow the sales executive and then after my learning project it on real time

Placement Experience

Campus placement starts from 2nd year and you get opportunity for Summer internship in 1st Year Placement assistance is provided by college for all the specialisations. Avg package is around 6-8 LPA Almost 90-95% students are placed My plans after degree is to work in corporate for few years and start my own venture

Fees and Financial Aid

I'm paying 880000 for my course fees. Along with me and my peers we all are paying same amount there might be concessions for categories but I am not aware of that. College also offers scholarships for students who have scored higher marks

Campus Life

There are lot of events happening all year around. Aarohan is cultural even and BASIC is academic event which are highly popular. Access to E library and Hard copy is very convenient and modern facilities are available in classrooms There are various Student cells like - Marketing cell, placement cell, CSR cell etc College also has Turf encouraging sports activities

Admission

I applied at various colleges a d I received offers from majority of them but I decided to go with VBS because of the college ranking and location and it's reputation. I appeared CET for entrance exam and after my selection at VBS I appeared their PI round

Faculty

There are 180 students in total and every student has their mentor assigned who help them throughout their journey. All the faculties are easily approachable and helpful. I personally like Dr. Kshitija Pandey as she has amazing industrial knowledge and her teaching skills excellent. There are 4 Mid terms and 4 End terms for examination and they are fairly moderate in difficulty

Interview Experience

I appeared PI round for selection process and ut was based on my experience and my basic understanding and general knowledge. My family background and my career goals and what do I expect from the college.

Night Life

College has a good canteen and this year they made a new canteen for Business School students Location is safe and there are always Cop cars patrolling the area You might face some issues for commuting Via auto but that's manageable

Review of RICS MBA CPM

Likes

we had smart classrooms and beautiful public library. the college infrastructure was modern with touch of historical blend. I was staying off campus, hence could not experience the hostel life. However we did enjoy all the sports facilities.
The faculties for RICS where mostly Doctorate holders while some were experienced veterans
the Boy to girl ratios was 60% to 40%. we are supposed to where business formals to every class and our classes often has projects and application based problems, which was very much linked to the real world.

Placement Experience:

we have 100% placements, when the year i passed i.e., 2022. basis what i have gathered, 2026 passout batch also have more than 95% placements, while the remaining students are still under the process of interviews

Honest Review

Likes

Infrastructures of the college are good.
Facilities provided by the college are good.
The placements and the companies visiting are good.

Dislikes

I disliked the social life of the college.
I disliked the fact that the college did not organize anything such as festivals or functions during our academic year.
I disliked the food in the college campus.

Placement Experience:

The placements depend upon which Specialization you're in. If you're a marketing student there will be lots of good companies coming in for placements followed by finance and then HR. You become eligible for placement from 3rd semester. Companies such as Deloitte, PWC, TCS, HCL, etc. visit the campus for placements and offer a good amount of Packages.

Remarks:

We learned a lot from the curriculum and the college itself. My journey was a mixed bag of feelings with many sweet and sour moments. The classroom sessions were fun and so were the field visits and management activities like webinars or mock marketing competitions.

Remarks:

College is almost good .this for those who want only masters but no placement .if you also want to get placed in any company need only degree ur welcome. The management is worst the nonteaching staff doesn't know how to talk with students especially the admission office. I here declare whatever I have seen and suffered I presented my view about this college to you, not it's your choice to go to heaven like symbiosis or choose hell. I was misguided and helpless so I came here means I got fewer marks in a snap so please students appear for snap sincerely.
