Journey of MBA at NIT Durgapur

I always wanted to pursue my post-graduation degree from any renowned institute and things worked for me here, so I chose this institute. I applied through the online application and with an application fee of Rs. 1250. I got 85% marks in the CAT exam, which helps me in clearing the minimum eligibility criteria as they demanded a good score in the CAT exam, 10th, 12th, and also in graduation. They also conducted a Writing ability test, personal interview, and group discussion.

I was always interested in setup my workplace or my start-up and that is why I joined this course to enhance my entrepreneurial skills. Now, come up with the content of the curriculum, I read different core subjects from finance, marketing, human resource management, quants or operation, organizational behavior, and specialized paper I read Financial Reporting & Analysis and Accounting, Investment, and Portfolio Management, Financial Derivatives, etc. In the number of terms, we had four semesters in this two years’ full-time course. Every professor or every teaching staffs member was so much help and they always remained supportive throughout this journey. Not only classroom teaching but also we did case studies, project reports, live projects, surveys. We also participated in some management development programs.

We participated in the campus recruitment program in the month of July i.e. in our final semester. Pathfinder, PWC, Federal Bank, Birla cement, Truck Hall, Blue cold refrigerator were some of the top recruiters in the placement program. The highest salary package offered was Rs. 33 LPA and an average salary of Rs.9.09 LPA was offered in our final placement program. I got the job in PWC. I was offered the role of ‘Tax associate’.

Our semester fee was Rs.37500 along with the semester fee I also paid Rs 4100 only at the time of admission. I also paid additional fees, such as library charges, Student activity fees, etc. I did not apply for any scholarship schemes. So, I may not be the right person to answer this question, although as much as I know they offered scholarship schemes through the National Scholarship portal and some scholarship schemes from Govt. of West Bengal.

I was a member of the Music club, which is one of the student clubs. I used to maintain a close relationship with the radio station ‘Nitroz’ which was an official radio club of our institution. I also performed in our Tech-management fest ‘Arohan’, ‘Recstacy’. In my leisure time, I used to play badminton games on the field.
