Both of the institutes, IIM Bangalore and IIM Kozhikode are reputed business schools in India, and both have their unique strengths and advantages. People want to get into both colleges. Therefore, it is difficult to say that students universally prefer one over the other for post-MBA studies.

Should I opt for ITM Navi Mumbai or Amity Business School?

AJ
Advait Joshi Posted On : July 12th, 2023
Lives in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

It's difficult to compare ITM Navi Mumbai with Amity Business Schools as both the institutes are on a similar level so you can choose one over the other based on your personal preferences. The batch size is quite similar. Amity is a good choice for North Indians while IMT is great for South Indians. 

If I had to make a personal comment, I would say that Amity is slightly better considering its location, quality of education, and the exposure offered. It also enjoys a better brand name than IMT. Amity Business Schools was the first to invite Marketing specialist Philip Kotler. 

Both the institutes take in candidates with good profiles and communication skills so make sure you have worked on them. The ROI might be less for average students so it all eventually depends on your hard work.

Which one should I opt for between BIMTECH PGDM core and Welingkar Mumbai core?

ES
Ekta Singh Posted On : February 23rd, 2023
Senior Career Counsellor counseling since 2004 (2002–present)

When considering a post-graduate program in management, it is important to gather information about various factors that can impact your education and career opportunities. These include the brand value of the institute, the exposure and opportunities provided by the institute's location and academic record, the brands that come for placements, and the placement figures with respect to different specializations like marketing, finance, HR, etc. In this context, Welingkar Mumbai and BIMTECH Greater Noida are both strong options to consider. 

Firstly, Welingkar Mumbai is a well-established and well-known brand in the market, with a long-standing history since the early 1990s. BIMTECH Greater Noida, on the other hand, has gained popularity in recent years, becoming a brand after it performed well after the global recession of 2009.

Secondly, studying in the financial capital of India, Mumbai, provides students with valuable exposure and opportunities. However, this does not limit the placement performance of Welingkar with respect to marketing specializations, as it provides very good placements around 8 lakh rupees per annum CTC.

Thirdly, when considering ranking, Welingkar Mumbai is among the top 30 institutes in India, whereas BIMTECH is among the top 45. Therefore, it can be concluded that BIMTECH is a good management institute for marketing placement, but Welingkar Mumbai may be a better overall option due to its established brand and reputation.

However, it is important to keep in mind that these are not the only factors to consider when making a decision and it is important to conduct thorough research and evaluate all options before making a final decision.
