Ques. What is the difference between PGDM BFSI and PGDM Finance at IMT Ghaziabad ?

● Top Answer By Sreetoma Gupta on 04 Jun 23

Ans. The emphasis of the curriculum distinguishes the IMT Ghaziabad PGDM Finance programme from the full-time PGDM program. A general management education, including instruction in marketing, finance, operations, and strategy, is provided via the full-time PGDM programme. The program's participants will enroll in a range of business-related courses. On the other side, the PGDM Finance programme specialises in finance and related fields. With the option to specialise in fields including corporate finance, investment banking, and financial analysis, students in this programme will take courses that are highly focused on accounting and finance.Read more

Ques. What should be preference order of IMT Ghaziabad courses- PGDM, PGDM marketing, PGDM finance, PGDM DCP, PGDM banking, insurance and financial services?

● Top Answer By Dhruv Chatterjee on 25 Jan 23

Ans. IMT Ghaziabad offers a variety of courses that cater to various specializations. These courses have been listed and explained in their order of preference PGDM Marketing/PGDM Full Time (Marketing): This is the most coveted program among IMT students mainly because today its alumni have acquired top positions in big firms. Other major reasons include top-notch faculty, great internship and placement opportunities in terms of role and CTC, IMT’s eligibility, and excellent performances in recognized marketing and strategy B Schools competitions. PGDM Finance/PGDM Full Time (Finance): This one is most suitable for aspirants who are interested in Finance. However, this program offers lesser opportunities than the Marketing program in terms of role and CTC.  PGDM Full Time (Operations): This program offers opportunities similar to that of Finance. But the batch size of PGDM Operations is smaller than PGDM Finance, so it may be easier to secure an internship/final placement, but the opportunities come less compared to Finance. PGDM DCP: DCP or the Dual Country Program is for those who are keen to get international exposure. Compared to an MBA from a foreign university, this program is cheaper and yet offers an opportunity to explore a different culture and learn to make decisions in an international context. This is best suitable for those who are in the Marketing domain. PGDM Banking and Financial Services (PGDM-BFS): This program was launched in 2019 and is relatively newer. It targets the core Banking and Finance sector. While the MBA program aims to provide a holistic view of management, this program solely focuses on Banking and Finance. PGDM Full Time (HR): This is the least taken course and offers very less in terms of opportunities. The courses have been arranged preference-wise so will make it easy for you to choose one.Read more

Ques. Which course in TAPMI is better, the core PGDM, the HRM, or BKFS?

● Top Answer By Divya Kaur on 02 May 23

Ans. What's most important is that you enjoy it. The BKFS program is highly specialized and designed to equip students with the tools necessary to succeed in any financial-related field. The PGDM's first year emphasizes variety over specialization. Two years into the program, you'll have the option to focus on either Marketing, Operations, or Finance. It's up to you to determine the kind of career you want to have. Everything in the new system will be up to the individual, replacing both the major and minor systems. Although the HR course is brand new, it will be just as rigorous and cover the same ground as other courses.Read more

Ques. What's the difference between TAPMI core pgdm and bkfs?

● Top Answer By Vihan Manjunath on 28 Aug 20

Ans. The difference between PGDM and PGDM-BKFS is that PGDM is the general MBA program and the course curriculum comprises all fundamental and cross-sectional areas of management while the course curriculum of PGDM-BKFS is tailor-made for Finance. In the first year for PGDM students are required to study various management-related subjects like Marketing, Finance, HR, and Operation. However, the BKFS course only includes Finance related topics. TAPMI offers good infrastructure for BKFS. The institute has the largest state-of-arts finance lab in the country with 16 Bloomberg terminals. TAPMI also offers a unique Student Managed Investment Course (SMIC) for the finance stream in which BKFS students work in teams and each team has a mentor from industry currently working in the BFSI Sector. Also, unlike the traditional internship that PGDM students go through the BFS cohort had a two-month study tour in Bombay Stock Exchange where the students had their live projects. Given below is a comparison between the two courses. Categories PGDM PGDM-BKFS Course Name Post Graduate Diploma in Management Post Graduate Diploma in Management - Banking and Financial Services Intake 360 60 Course Fee 14.3 lakh (2 years) 14 Lakh (2 years) >Highest Salary Package 25 LPA 25 LPA Average Salary Package 11.50 LPA 12.75 LPA Recruiting Companies Alien Technology, Arcesium, Wipro, Capgemini, ITC, HCL, etc. Axis Bank, Yes Bank, HSBC, etc.Read more

Ques. Which school is better, MDI Gurgaon or IIM K, if I want to be an equity research analyst?

● Top Answer By Yash Gupta on 22 Feb 23

Ans. If you go to the official website and compare the placement reports, MDI Gurgaon fares better than IIM Kozhikode. Let’s have a look at the placement statistics of the 2 B Schools.   Particulars  MDI IIM Kozhikode  Number of Recruiters  87 116 Highest CTC INR 1.14 CPA INR 61.5 LPA Average CTC INR 26.65 LPA INR 29.5 LPA Top Recruiters  Microsoft, Google, HCL, Adobe Accenture, Amazon, Microsoft The best finance companies that offer roles like Equity Research Analyst roles, and Securities analysis visit both the B Schools. But the higher number of companies visiting MDI Gurgaon gives it a slight advantage over IIM Kozhikode. Yet I think both MDI Gurgaon and IIM-K are almost equal in terms of giving you the opportunity of getting an Equity Research Analyst role. If I was in your place I would have chosen MDI Gurgaon because of the following factors Location Infrastructure  The industry-academia relationship Live Projects Guest Lectures Corporate Talks Peer learningRead more

My brother is a recent pass out from LBSIM and the following highlight of the institute are based on his personal experiences  The IIRF ranks LBSIM 25th among private colleges It has a spectacular ROI in terms of placements and fees LBSIM is famous for its student culture You can get an insight into various angles of the industry you will be dealing with in the future  You can avail an abundance of opportunities through live projects and get to have a detailed experience in your specialization.

Ques. Which is better LBSIM, Delhi PGDM (general) or IMI, Delhi PGDM (B&FS)?

● Top Answer By Amay Singh on 03 Mar 23

Ans. PGDM BFS is a viable option if you are keen about numbers and finance in general. PGDM core and PGDM BFS rarely has a major difference in curriculum except that marketing subjects of BFS would be less intriguing and the major pedagogy is directed towards marketing of finance products and services only. A PGDM core student is open to a plethora of opportunities during placements as he is eligible to appear for companies offering marketing and sales profiles. On the contrary, a PGDM BFS student has been exposed to a customized curriculum that focuses mainly on Finance and lacks a wide range of opportunities. However, he has a more definite chance of securing placement at a company offering Finance roles like Banks and other financial institutions. This advantage seems very minimal right now but with the increase in the relevance of the curriculum and demand of the course, it will soon be coveted among Finance aspirants. The BFS faculties are considered to be among the best given the excellent performance of BFS students in the recent years and the increasing popularity of the course. The companies visiting the campus for BFS are not only banks but include AMCs, NBFCs, FinTechs and other Fin Services firms. The course targets the entire Banking and Finance sector.  At the end of the day, what remains of your college life is not the specific course you chose but the college you chose to pursue it. Be it PGDM Core or PGDM BFS, IMI Delhi is the perfect college to experience a great college life.Read more

Ans. IMI Delhi is among the top B schools of Delhi NCR. It holds a distinct reputation for the establishment of centers of excellence in different streams of management. The faculty is experienced and well qualified. Pre-placement offers are also a dominant feature of the institute. Apart from placements it has attractive internship statistics also relating to better career growth. It offers streams in three major areas which are General, Human resources, and Banking & Financial Services. All these streams are linked to a single program which is PGDM but the decision underlining preference depends on factors like fees and placements, etc which are discussed below.

Ques. Which college is better for Finance among IMT Ghaziabad (PGDM) & TAPMI BKFS?

● Top Answer By Manmeet Singh on 27 Jan 23

Ans. IMT is a well-established college and comparing it to a mediocre college like TAPMI is not justifiable. Of the two, IMT Ghaziabad is clearly a better choice. To explain further I have compared both these institutes on the basis of some parameters like Establishment: Both these institutes were established in 1980 so they carry an equal legacy. Alumni: Despite a similar legacy, IMT Ghaziabad alumni are placed in higher positions and top firms today. The extensive alumni network has opened gates for corporate and industry exposure. IMT Ghaziabad’s alumni comprise more than 300 CXOs. Location: IMT Ghaziabad enjoys a better location advantage over TAPMI Pedagogy: Both the Institutes are AACSB accredited and follow similar curriculums yet there is a stark difference in the quality of education. This is because of the better pedagogy at IMT Ghaziabad than at TAPMI. Faculty: IMT Ghaziabad's teaching methodology is way ahead of that of TAPMI and the credit goes to its excellent faculty with amazing profiles. They have great industry exposure and help the students grasp the concepts practically. Placements: IMT Ghaziabad has an upper hand in this aspect also. This can be explained further through the table below Particulars  IMT Ghaziabad  TAPMI Number of recruiters 130+ 21 Highest CTC INR 62 LPA INR 22.3 LPA Average CTC INR 15.28 LPA INR 15.7 LPA Top Recruiters  Morgan Stanley, BCG, Accenture Consulting, Goldman Sachs, Google, Infosys Consulting, Emami International, TATA Consumer Product  EY, HDFC Bank, HSBC Bank, Tata Capital From the table you can easily infer that the placement scenario is far better at IMT Ghaziabad than TAPMI. In fact in almost all aspects IMT Ghaziabad is way ahead so it’s definitely a better choice than TAPMI.Read more
