Is it better to go for the IPM program offered by IIM Indore or do a bachelor's degree and go abroad?

SG
Samarth Gaur Posted On : January 12th, 2023
Student at Indian Institute of Management Indore (2019–present)

First of all, it depends on the college you enroll in (for undergraduate study in India) and the subjects you are interested in. Choose IPM if the undergrad institution you are considering is not on par with it. If not, you might still think about that as a possibility.

Additionally, it depends on individual preference, financial situation, family, etc. Moving abroad is a major decision, and not everyone is emotionally or mentally prepared for it. Therefore, it is a very individual choice.

Most importantly, after completing the first three years at IPM, you are free to transfer to another college abroad. People have done this in the past and been accepted to institutions like HEC, and Paris. If you take this route, you will have the security of completing an MBA at IIM-Indore in case you are not accepted to your dream college abroad; however, if you are, you may leave IPM. It benefits both parties. 

Additionally, three years is a long time, and if you decide to travel abroad, your preferences may change. In that case, IPM is still a better choice. As a result, we strongly advise choosing this option.

Which among these is the better university for BBA - Jadavpur University, Calcutta University or Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : August 22nd, 2023
lives in New Delhi

If you are considering joining JU then go for either JD Birla or Institute of Business Management. Their BHA program is one of the best in the country. However, JU has a bit of political influence so that might affect your learning experience. That being said, MAKAUT BBA seems to be the best option for you. Their curriculum and job opportunities are top notch and the institute does not have any kind of political affiliations. 

I will not suggest you join CU unless you are getting Goenka or Scottish. From what I have heard, the university has a very tough grading system. This might affect your job opportunities so consider this once before joining. 

Here is a comparative analysis of the placement scenario of these institutes

Which is a better option for pursuing a BBA in Dehradun, Doon Business School or Graphic Era University? How are the placements?

PS
Pratyusha Sharma Posted On : March 14th, 2023
MBA from Doon Business School(2020)

Comparing Doon Business School (DBS) and Graphic Era University (GEU) for the BBA program, it is important to consider the specific focus and expertise of the institutions. While GEU is known for its strong engineering programs, DBS has a primary focus on management courses like BBA and MBA/PGDM.

DBS has a smaller campus, but its faculty has a diverse background and expertise in management courses, which makes it a suitable choice for students who are planning to pursue a career in management. On the other hand, GEU has a larger campus and attracts more undergraduate students due to its reputation as an engineering college.

For BBA in Doon Business School, the highest salary package offered is 5 LPA, with an average salary package of 3 LPA. Top companies like Wipro, Bank of America, Axis Bank, and Infosys recruit students from the institute, and around 80% of students get internships in companies like BYJU and Decathlon.

Maximum students get placed from BBA in Graphic Era University, with the highest package offered to be 4 LPA and an average package of 3 LPA. Companies like Adobe, Tech Mahindra, and Samsung recruit students, and about 40% of students get internships in companies like Times of India. GEU offers roles in marketing, human resources, finance, and logistics, among others.

Therefore, if you are planning to pursue a career in management, it is advised to choose a college that has expertise in teaching management courses like DBS. But if you are interested in pursuing technical courses, GEU can be a good choice. Ultimately, it is essential to consider your future aspirations and career goals while selecting a college for your higher studies.

How is the IPM course offered by IIM Indore? After completion of 5 years, do we get a diploma or a degree from IIM?

JR
Javed Rahman Posted On : January 12th, 2023
Lives in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India

With the implementation of the IIM Act, students of the five-year Integrated Program in Management (IPM) would, like their PGP counterparts, begin receiving degrees rather than diplomas in 2018.

In contrast to their peers in colleges, IPM graduates could not enroll in higher education programs. It was for this reason that many students chose not to apply for the course.

Authorities at IIM Indore were troubled by the fact that IPM was a diploma program. Concerned, IIM Indore administrators permitted IPM course participants to pursue degree programs concurrently via distance learning. However, this action also did not put an end to the worries related to the IPM course.
