Which college will be better for MBA: IILM, Noida or LPU or Chandigarh University or UPES, Dehradun?

Question

Dharamveer Dheer · Answer

Many students fall for the glitzy advertisements on placements, you need to go beyond that, you need to see the real factors which affect and improve the employability of students. What you need is correct education and relevant skills for life, not the one month placement interview classes which can help cracking the interview but after that in practical situations, you are lost because you didn't had enough practical exposure. You must compare on the parameters like: Curriculum development: Is the curriculum at the university upgraded with industry inputs. Teaching pedagogy : Your college must have experiential learning practices. More the practical, better it is. Infrastructure: To support the practical and theoretical aspects of the curriculum Internships : For learning hands on the real time situations. Professional enhancement: The college must focus on the personality development, soft skills, interpersonal skills, work ethics etc. Student diversity: When the class comprises of people from diverse nationalities, students learn working in corporate, team work and cross cultural sensibilities. Faculty: High caliber and research oriented. Industry interface: There must be regular industry interactions, seminars, conferences, visits and mentor-ship programs. Entrepreneurship projects: The universities need to have design thinking, innovation and business incubation labs Placements: After all it boils down to placements, the university must attract god number of companies for recruitment and offer good salaries. In management education LPU has excelled in all these factors. With the unflinching focus on excellence and industry support LPU takes the cake.
