Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is very broad covering a wide range of subjects that enhance our analytical as well as logical abilities. We have almost 8 subjects on average in each trimester. During the second year, we will also have to choose a minor specialization along with the major specialization subject. Faculty members are excellent with impeccable academic records and a vast amount of industry exposure and experience. I chose this course because I always wanted to do marketing and thought this is a better way to move forward towards the goal. The batch size is 690 and each class on average has 66 students. Exams are held every 3 months and it is medium difficult to pass exams.

I chose this course because of my interest in business and how the corporate world works. The faculty is great at KJSIM. Along with theory, practical knowledge is also provided and practical life examples are given and students are expected to do case studies and presentations for overall learning.

Exams are held 3 times a year and if the student pays attention in class and regularly studies, the exams are not difficult to pass.
