How is the placement scenario at NMIMS Mumbai for a BSc in finance degree?

SM
Shreya Matta Posted On : February 28th, 2023
MBA from K.J. Somaiya Institute of Management Studies and Research (SIMSR) (Graduated 2019)

If the NMIMS Mumbai BSc in Finance placement scenario can be described in a single word then pathetic it is. The placement committee is substandard and leaves almost more than half of the batch unplaced. During my sister's batch, the placement coordinator was switched in the midst of the placement session which was a highly irresponsible way to handle the situation. There was no coordinator for more than 3 months in between. The pre-placement activities that had to be initiated in July began in September and this delay affected the placements drastically.

There is high competition between NMIMS and other B Schools like NM, Mithibai, and UPG. So despite many top companies visiting the campus, the roles offered were mediocre. So joining NMIMS for BSc Finance with the prospect of getting a package above 8 LPA is useless.

Which course is the best? IIM Indore's IPM, BFIA / BMS at SSCBS, DU; BSc Fin. at NMIMS or BBA at Christ?

AS
Anusha Soni Posted On : January 4th, 2023
Studied at Indian Institute of Management Indore (Graduated 2021)

In my opinion, the best course among these is IPM. Some might even think I am a little biased towards this course but in reality once you learn the advantages of this program you will change your mind.

The Programme consists of 15 terms spread over a period of 5 years, with each year having 3 terms of 3 months. The subjects of the initial 3 years focus on the foundation and the last 2 years have core subjects that focus on Management.

  • The programme is designed by renowned experts.
  • IIM-I tag
  • Amazing infrastructure
  • Excellent faculty 
  • Extensive network of alumnis
  • Peers from diverse backgrounds (The last 2 years are along with PGP students )
  • Great placement opportunities 
  • Wide range of co-curricular activities

Cons :

  • Programme is new so recruiters and big companies don’t trust it much
  • It experiences bias when compared to the old PGP model.
  • In case one doesn't like the programme, you can not change the stream again.
  • IPM offers very limited scope
  • No specialization 
  • Freshers are not much preferred in comparison to experienced placements.
  • High fees

Still if you are not convinced that IPM is the best alone the courses you mentioned, the order for the other courses is

SSCBS> NMIMS> Christ

The only advantage the other courses have over IPM is that their model is tried and tested and open to lesser risks. Hence the scope is not that much limited.

Which college is the best for a B.Sc(honours) in mathematics, Ramjas College or Kirori Mal College?

SR
Shashank Roy Posted On : November 8th, 2021
B.Sc. Physics (Hons.) from Kirori Mal College, Delhi University (2021)

Both Ramjas College and Kirori Mal College are quite reputed colleges. There are no such parameters to differentiate between these two. Both of these two institutes have good faculty bases. You will also get decent facilities to learn at these colleges. 

The only significant factor that can be mentioned is that Kirori Mal has a NAAC A+ accreditation with a better grade as compared to Ramjas. However, it’s not wise to compare these two institutes based on grade. You will have decent opportunities at both. So, you can opt for any of these two based on your convenience.
