SJEC MBA Finance and HR Course Structure

SJEC MBA Finance and HR Hostel and Campus

A non-AC room for three with an attached bath costs INR 98,000 a year with mess. An AC room for two costs INR 1.20 Lakhs a year. Rooms are given first come, first served, and the hostel fee rises by 10% the next year.

Should you pick MBA Finance and HR at SJEC?

This course suits graduates who want a finance or HR job in coastal Karnataka on a low fee.

Pick it if:
You want a finance job in a bank or audit firm: Bajaj Finance, HDFC, KPMG and EY Global Delivery Services are on the recruiter list for this course.
You want to study finance in a banking city: Canara Bank and Karnataka Bank both started in Mangaluru, so banking is a big local employer.
You want the fee back fast: at the INR 5.5 LPA median pay, the full course fee comes back well inside the first working year.
You want real company work before your first job: every student does a compulsory 10-week internship, so you leave with one full project done in a company.
Skip it if:
You are counting on an old closing rank: the General close got tougher each year, from 37,132 in 2023 to 18,226 in 2025, so an old rank is not safe.
You expect every student to get a campus job: the MBA batch of 2022 to 2024 placed 72%, so about one in four students found work on their own.
You want a big metro job market: Mangaluru is a smaller city, so most finance and HR offers come through campus drives, not walk-in internships.
You need a hostel room fixed early: rooms are given first come, first served, and the hostel fee rises by 10% the next year.
Counsellor's advice
If PGCET round 1 gives you this seat on a General rank, take it, because the close got tougher each year. If your rank is weaker, keep SJEC in your options and wait for round 2 before you pay elsewhere.

In short
Sahyadri costs more and closed at a much tougher rank in 2025. If your rank clears both and the fee matters, take SJEC. If you still want Sahyadri, ask it for its MBA placement report first.
In short
Srinivas IT closed at an easier rank but costs more for the same two years. If your rank misses SJEC, keep Srinivas IT below it in your options as a backup seat.
In short
AJIM closed at an easier rank and costs more. If SJEC gives you a seat in any round, take it, and keep AJIM below SJEC in your options as the backup.
In short
MITE costs a little less, but its closing rank and MBA placement figures are not published. If the small fee gap is the only reason, ask MITE for its placement report before you list it above SJEC.

Fees and pay can change. Check each college site before you decide.
