Course Curriculum Overview
Well since the course I studied was MBA, we had project every semester where it was mandatory to do a thorough research on the topics of our projects. Most of the times, research included Quantitative analysis and Market research which was somewhat easy for us because we had research related subjects like Market Research and statistics and Quantitative subjects in our curriculum.

Faculty
When I was studying, the faculty of our college had a huge diversity. There were a lot of permanent faculties as well as fair share of guest lecturers. The quality of study materials provided by the professors were very good and had IP rights for the security of notes leaking. The professors were all capable enough and guest lecturers were on of the best in industry with huge access and knowledge of marketing and subjects they used to teach. The lectures by professors were more practical oriented which made it easy to understand the concepts.
