When I was searching colleges for my PGDM/MBA I visited all the four colleges i.e. BIMM, PIBM, RIIM IBS&M. what I prefer is RIIM, because the course that they have is very unique and exposure they provide is very good. They provide many certifications and Industrial visits. Plus the Guest sessions helped us to enhance our knowledge, therefore I will suggest you to go for RIIM.

According to me, RIIM is the best option to do management studies. Because RIIM is the only place who will provides you that much of practical exposure according to the current corporate scenario which is most important to get good placement. I have done my MBA-Marketing from RIIM. RIIM will provides you maximum certification programme I, e. SAP, SIX SIGMA, NSE, FOREIGN LANGUAGE, BUSINESS ANALYTICS, and the most important is DIGITAL MARKETING certificate from IIM-KOZIKODE and MDP IIM INDORE. They will provide your number of industrial visits and guest lectures which is more helpful to enhance your knowledge. Placement is also good. Fac...more

All the colleges are good in terms of good education quality and teaching staff, I would say RIIM is a better option. The practical exposure which RIIM provides is way more than any other college of this league.
16+ Industrial visits and workshops which are conducted through out the course duration makes RIIM stand ahead of the crowd. Workshops at NSE and residential programme at IIM Indore is an attraction. Placements are very good. They have the top recruiter. I would say go for RIIM. -
