How is Marketing at IIM Trichy? I have also converted IIM Ranchi but I would prefer Trichy if marketing is good here.
IIMs in India provide excellent education and consistently grow and adapt to challenges, even during economic downturns. During the MBA placements season at IIM Ranchi in 2022, the highest and average packages offered were INR 42 LPA and INR 16.62 LPA, respectively. IIM Trichy also had a successful placements season in 2022, with the highest package offered to be INR 34 LPA, an increase of 13% compared to the previous year. One unique aspect of IIM Trichy is that it offers a course on International Business Practice, which allows students to work on live projects for companies based in Singapore and other locations.
Both IIM Ranchi and IIM Trichy are good choices for students interested in sales and marketing careers. Ultimately, the decision of which institute to attend will depend on your personal priorities and preferences.
Which college should I join, IMT Ghaziabad (marketing) or IIM Sirmaur? I have work experience of 3 years in the IT industry.
The new IIMs like IIM Sirmaur and Jammu prefer experienced work professionals over freshers. This is so that the B School can boast its profile in front of corporates during placements. Other than the IIM tag it has nothing to offer and is not in the league of well-established companies. IMT Ghaziabad specializes in Marketing and IIM Sirmaur is nowhere comparable in this aspect. I’m fact IMT Ghaziabad is better than IIM Sirmaur in all these aspects
- brand
- crowd
- faculty exposure
- corporate connect
- roles offered
- alums
- location
Your IT background will also fetch you a good role if you join IMT Ghaziabad only.
Which one is better for an MBA in marketing, IIM Udaipur or DoMS IIT Madras?
IIM Udaipur is outright incomparable to IIT Madras. This is because while IIT Madras is an excellent educational institution, it specializes in technological studies and not in Management. Meanwhile IIM Udaipur despite being a new IIM has set itself apart from its competitors owing to the following reasons

The campus is decked with world class facilities and offers a serene experience. Other campus highlights include the upcoming incubation center and Bloomerang Lab.
- Faculty: Among the new IIMs, IIM Udaipur has the maximum number of permanent faculty around 30. Other major electives are taught by guest faculty from top IIM like Ahmedabad and Bangalore.
- Placements: IIM Udaipur boasts of 100% placement percentage. The students received decent offers and were satisfied with their roles and packages. The highest CTC stood at INR 35.96 LPA while the average CTC stood at NR 19.5 LPA

Database resources at the library: In order to achieve this goal, the library has been offering services to its patrons like CD-ROM databases, and the online databases are made available through the Institute's network. IIM Kashipur Library is a hybrid library with cutting-edge technological applications. The library provides a vast array of printed and electronic resources, including books and e-books, print and electronic journals, a wide selection of databases, reference books, case studies, DVDs/CDs, and other items.

When IIM Kashipur is the most apt for Operations among the new IIMs, then why does the maximum placement there happens in Finance and Marketing?
Because of its location, IIM Kashipur has the best Operations faculties and links. However, there are a few issues with the placement of the same. The Institute does not award diplomas in specific fields such as operations, finance, and marketing. As a result, students of any major are always eligible to apply for any job. Because students are not enrolled in a specific stream when they join the institute, their preferences change after the first year of exposure. Many students enter the second year with the intention of majoring in Operations, but they end up majoring in other fields for personal reasons.
Even among them, there aren't many freshmen, for whom it can be challenging to find an operations job; as a result, even they end up getting placed in a different stream. Therefore, IIM Kashipur is indeed a perfect place for operations management, but only if you have the correct perspective on what ops are and if you stick with it.
Which course among PGP at IIM Indore and PGP-ABM at IIM Lucknow should one choose if he/she has an interest in Marketing and Operations?
The simple answer is that the choice of the course depends more or your overall profile than the course itself. Irresponsible of your specialization your chances at placements will be low if your resume is below average. Moreover, institutes like IIM Indore and IIM Lucknow offer joint placements for both programs.
Students can apply to any company irrespective of their specialization. Yet there are many who are able to get into their dream companies while some failed to get a call from a reputed firm. This is because the PGP program just added value to your resume and if that is already poor then even PGP cannot guarantee you a high-paying job.
So if you already have a good resume all you need to do is improve your resume in marketing and operations. This can be done through extra-curricular activities and B-school competitions. For this the PGP-ABM program is perfect.
But if you have a below-average resume, then go for PGP. Because then extracurricular activities alone will not improve your resume. You need class projects and good academic scores to upgrade it. Unlike PGP-ABM, you won’t miss out on basic electives related to marketing/ops/finance.
So nothing is certain about an MBA program. One needs to know what he will be doing after acquiring knowledge to decide which course to take. I will personally suggest you go for IIM Lucknow PGP-ABM if you just want to improve your resume.
How good is IIM Calcutta for marketing?
- Academics and Faculty:
- Marketing related Clubs and activities:
- Placement in Sales and Marketing:
Which is better IIM Lucknow or IIM Calcutta for marketing? How much do marketing companies care about academics? Does Workex care about academics? What is the package difference?
Despite everything, IIM Calcutta is a much better business school overall than IIM Lucknow, regardless of the field. However, if you do not receive an offer from Calcutta, you may consider Lucknow. Some companies may not shortlist you because there will be candidates with far superior academic credentials. However, this is not a sufficient reason to avoid attending an IIM. You will have numerous opportunities to enhance your CV within the b-school through academic performance, winning b-school competitions (which often leads to a direct PPI), participating in PORs and other extracurricular activities, live projects, and so on.
Regardless of your prior academic performance, you will almost certainly be better off with an MBA from IIM Calcutta or Lucknow than without one, assuming you don't waste the two years in b-school doing nothing.
