Does an industrial engineer have any advantage when applying for an MBA at NITIE?
NITIE Mumbai is the brand name for engineers targeting management courses in India. The institute offers various industrial management courses for students.
I have a friend studying PGDIM in NITIE Mumbai, and as per his insights, you do not get any advantage of being an Industrial Engineer in NITIE Mumbai, if you are focusing on PGDIM or PGDISEM. As it offers you an Industrial Management degree, having an Industrial Engineering does add anything to your profile. However, you may get an edge over other students if targeting M. Tech through the GATE exam.
Overall, in MBA from NITIE, an industrial engineer is on the same platform as other candidates.

Which one would be a better option: a job under SSC or MBA from SIBM Bangalore?
Staff Selection Commission (SSC) will land you in a government job. There are different departments in SSC where you can get placed. Whereas, MBA from SIBM Bangalore will weave you to be corporate ready and land you in a private white-collar job.
Choice
- If you want to be at a work-life equilibrium and a fixed-paying job, cracking the SSC exam makes sense. SSC provides you with job security.
- If you want to earn a lucrative package and are ready to have a hectic life with variable work hours, MBA is the best choice. SIBM Bangalore is the second well-known and high-rated campus of Symbiosis International University after SIBM Pune.
- SSC will cost you less, but competition is high due to the “Government job” tag.

The application fee is less than INR 1000. Reserved candidates get exemption in this fee. The coaching fee will cost under INR 1 Lakh. |
If you have already cleared SSC Tier-1 and Tier-2 exams, leaving SSC will not be a wise choice. SSC is a preferable choice over MBA from SIBM Bangalore. The reason is, MBA from SIBM Bangalore does not have much credibility in the industry.
