What is the scope of doing an MBA from IGNOU? Is it acceptable by MNCs?

Aman Arora Posted On : October 21st, 2022

MS from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) (Graduated-2016)

IGNOU is recognised by AICTE and is run by the central government. So if you are looking for a government job then it’s not an issue. Also, IGNOU is better than many small universities like SMU (Sikkim Manipal University).

IGNOU is the best option if you are tight on budget or you prefer learning while earning.

MNCs prefer a formal education of 15 years. For additional education, you can go for IGNOU. But if your Bachelor's Degree is also from IGNOU then this might be a problem at the time of employment.

It’s important to note that at the time of employment regular colleges are always given more preference than distance education. So it’s recommended you pursue MBA from a regular college. Let IGNOU be the last choice under special circumstances such as a tight budget or preferring distance learning due to personal reasons.

Studied at IIM Ahmedabad

PGPX and PGPM are tailored for two different kinds of groups.Here are some differences and similarities between these two programs offered by IIM Ahmedabad-

Profile- The PGPX crowd is quite diverse. Students of PGPX have a high work experience (an average of 7 years). PGPM students have an experience of around 2.5 to 3 years on an average.

Duration- PGPX lasts for 1 year while PGPM lasts for 2.

Faculty- The teaching staff is the same for both programs.

Courses- A few PGPX courses can be taken by PGPM students, but not the other way around.

Teaching method- PGPX is based on interaction while PGPM is instruction-based.

Focus- The PGPX course is more focused in nature. This is because working professionals with such high experience know about their goals and ambitions.

If you have more than 6 years of work experience, PGPX is a better choice. Otherwise, opt for PGPM.

What is your experience of doing MBA at LIBA Loyola College in Chennai?

Vishakha Advani Posted On : September 29th, 2021

Studied at Loyola Institute of Business Administration (2016)

One of my cousins graduated from Loyola. His experience at Loyola Institute of Business Administration (LIBA) is quite good. First of all, I will have to answer based on my current interactions with the faculty and some of the students.

My friend has been fairly active concerning the alumni meetings and has met most of the professors and quite a few students.
There is one marked difference between the time my friend studied there and now, that is the significant improvement in the facilities.
There is a proper hostel, the entire campus is wi-fi enabled and the auditorium and other facilities are pretty much as good as it gets.
The classes are like any other college.
There is a mix of full-time and guest faculty; they also do not follow any particular schedule when it comes to guest speakers.
Try not to compare it to an IIM. Though the standards are definitely above average and better.
There is still a vibe of a laid-back environment here when comparing them to a B school like XLRI.

Categories	MBA at LIBA
Course Fee	1.68 lakh
Highest CTC	20 LPA
Average CTC	10-12 PA
Recruiting Companies	CTS, Tech Mahindra, Byju’s, Accenture, etc.

Apart from software companies picking up people for their consulting teams - Cognizant, etc. The industry presence in Chennai is not the same as in Mumbai. Overall, it could be one of the good options among other average-performing colleges.

Is an MBA from JBIMS better than SP Jain from a placement point of view?

Anubhuti Shekhar Posted On : February 28th, 2023

M.M.S. from Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (Graduated 2014)

From the point of view of batch strength, JBIMS has a smaller batch size of 120 students, while SP Jain has a larger batch size of 300 students. The list of companies visiting both campuses is similar, but due to the smaller batch size at JBIMS, the options available per student are higher, resulting in better placement opportunities.

In terms of cost, JBIMS has a lower fee structure of approximately 1 lakh per year, while the fees at SP Jain can reach 10 lakhs per year when including all expenses. This results in a higher return on investment for JBIMS.

In terms of the quality of education, both colleges are equally good, but it is important not to only consider the quality of education when making a decision. Networking opportunities should also be taken into consideration, and JBIMS offers strong networking opportunities due to its strong alumni base.

In conclusion, both colleges offer great placement opportunities and it is up to personal preference and individual circumstances to determine the best option.

JBIMS saw a significant increase in average salary in 2022, rising over 20% to INR 27.63 LPA. The median CTC was INR 26.48 LPA, and the highest salary offered was INR 42 LPA.
