Remarks

It just seems like an extension of your 12th where focus or Orientation is mostly on Grades and not on Learning. Despite of all this you would not be assured a high paying job. Gives you a feeling of being let down by the Management. The Department which deals with placements is absolutely inefficient. The peer group is immatured

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The Exam structure is largely same as what we have in our Engineering but the Curriculum is divided into many parts where Quiz, Projects, Midterms, Class Participation plays a Major role. It's actually a very good thing because learning happens in every phase. The grades are a result of combined effort on all these phases.

Placement Experience

2

Recruitment are just below par, there are not many companies which offer core Marketing or Finance roles. They give sales roles Eg: Nestle, ITC

College Events

2

Our College holds annual Marketing symposium in December, Annual Cultural event in January, Sports events in February and March. There are other events hosted by respective clubs like the Finance club hosting Paisa Vasool which gives students opportunity to earn money.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The program fees is 16.60 lakhs for 2 years, the College accepts online mode of payment, RTGS. There are no additional charges. The College provides transparency in fee breakdown. The financial matters are dealt in a professional manner. The College does not encourage any other ways to secure the seat.

Fees and Financial Aid

I did not opt for any loan but from what I heard from my peers is that the College has few suggestions to make for loan. You can also do that on your own

Campus Life

4.5

Diversity is Great, Gender Ratio is good but Sports, Extracurriculars, Debates and labs are a big let down. There's lot of scope to improve on these fronts. The only reason for this situation is the orthodox attitude of the Management because it's largely controlled by Old Generations and posts are handed out of Obligations. Important Departments like Placements are handled by most inefficient people who lack basic etiquette of Corporate world. Students are not encouraged to think or explore.

Hostel Facilities

4

It's a twin sharing Hostel with Air conditioning and maintenance every day. But the Maintenance is not done effectively. But it's relatively Ok, the surroundings are not maintained properly. In the event of Rainfall it's chaotic, Animals create ruckus, the Garbage also plays a major hurdle

Alumni/Alumna

Not so helpful from the outset but if you delve deep and pursue them they might be willing to help you

Admission

I have taken XAT exam, I have applied to the PGDM admissions invited by the college. Then on the merit of my score I was called for further rounds like Essay writing and Personal Interview.The process is carried out quite Professionally across some major cities in India.

Faculty

3.5

Every subject has a Professor and Teaching Assistant, they are mostly PHD holders and possess good knowledge but that is largely not translated into teaching. They should focus on innovative ways of teaching, Refer articles and give access to Digital learning.

Placement Experience:

The placements at ISSM Business School are excellent, with students becoming eligible from the final semester and nearly 100% placement achieved, as top companies like Wipro, Accenture, TCS, and Deloitte visit the campus offering roles across various domains, with packages ranging from around ?6 LPA to ?29 LPA and an average of about ?13.6 LPA, and after completing my degree, I plan to secure a good job through campus placement and grow professionally in my chosen field.

Placement Experience:

In ISSM they are offering internship opportunities for students in 2 semester itself. And most of the companies are offering PPO (Pre Placement Offer) for the interns. Probably mid of 3 semster the students will placed as full time employee before complete their MBA degree. No college will give this kind of opportunities for the students.
