Remarks

Vgsom need to work hard in bringing more companies. There are still very less companies coming up in marketing and analytics. Most are in consulting industry. Also separate hostel Tobe provided to MBA students

Entrance Preview

JMAT- 98 .This was for entrance in IIT. Now it is revoked and all entries are through CAT. VGSOM is one of the best college after IIT Mumbai MBA program.

Course Curriculum Overview

4

It was upto the standard of any MBA college in the country. Course like marketing and operations were taught from best of the books and but learned faculties.

Internships Opportunities

Mine was ok types. I worked for a startup right horizons and marketing company pantaloons. I learnt about working in a startup culture and also learnt about various financial products and it's features. Also working for pantaloons learnt about retail industry. General stipend offered that year was around 20000 per month.

Placement Experience

3.5

Placement was good in consultancy companies like all big 4 companies visited. Also all big IT arms visited. Marketing companies like fmcg, Vodafone also visited. Along with major banks like citi, Nomura etc. There were also opportunities in analytics profile like HP, CITI GROUP. Normal average for package for freshers was 8 lacs and above. For experienced it was more than 10 lacs depending on experience.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Our fee structure was cheap. Around 3 lacs for 2 years. But then it is increased. But considering the fact that MBA is not cheap in India still IIT MBA are cheap and affordable. Currently it is around 7lacs.

Fees and Financial Aid

Loan facilities are offered by the banks being operated inside the campus. They are very helpful employees and very easily give loan without much documentation.

Alumni/Alumna

We have a strong alumni network through Google groups. Therefore this helps in knowing any new initiative being taken or any new job. There is also a mentor mentees program being run where alumni assists a student in the college on remote basis.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose the course only because of our HOD, but after completing my course, he left the course. He has helped us with all the things like web development and seo skills. By doing it practically for every student, he offers a domain for every student. I had difficulty with Google Ads & meta ads because it was taught by another faculty. The exam times were different by 3 months.

The good things I like is that the teachers teach through the slides prepared by himself and also told student to prepare PowerPoint presentation and deliver in the class and also give different case study to solve the problem. Only missing thing is that the student are getting less practical knowledge as compare to theory paper.
