Question

Ashish Sharma · Answer

Hi Nomanjee, Both LPU and Amity have their own strengths, While LPU has one state of the art campus, Amity has its MBA programme available at many locations, both of them are good I their own sphere, but if we go a little deeper, it is LPU which has created a huge name for itself over last decade or so with a extremely solid track record on all the relevant parameters like: Curriculum : LPU curriculum is continuously upgraded and developed with consultations and feedback of industry. Pedagogy : The teaching pedagogy forms the backbone of how the programme is delivered, more the practical, better it is, LPU focuses on practicals. Technology trainings : The businesses and the business functions are now highly tech driven, the LPU MBA programme has exposure and training of the same. Students are exposed to the world leading technologies like SAP, GitHub, Advance excel etc. Entrepreneurship : Even though most of the students go for jobs, the exposure to entrepreneurship is required. LPU ecosystem provides numerous opportunities for it. Professional etiquette: It is the most important part these days, the personality, ethics, virtuous, speech, body language, interpersonal skills etc. Are given high importance in the organisations. LPU programme includes the training or modules on all these. Community service: LPU exposes the students to community projects in between the course to develop the humane side of the person as well as learn the organizing skills. Diversity: As he world shrinks into a aligned economy, the professionals will be required to work in cross cultural teams having entirely different work culture and ethos, the national and international diversity of students in a LPU is helpful in enabling the students develop right sensibilities for such work atmosphere. Industry interface: Ultimately its the industry which is going to immerse the students in the placements, LPU excels in it and provides the regular industrial talks, interactions, lectures, visits and internships. Placements: Since the ultimate aim of attaining a skill/knowledge/degree is to have a career, it is desirable that whichever university you chose, It must have good industry linkages to attract the good recruiters which value fresh talent. LPU has a stellar record in placements with over 600 companies visiting the campus for recruitment. Money plays an important part in India, LPU with its already reasonable fee structure offers scholarships to meritorious students! All the best.

The career decision is crucial, even more so is the decision of your college! With all big names in question it becomes a little tricky. With 16 years of experience behind me, I would compare the universities for MBA on following parameters: Curriculum : If at all the curriculum is continuously upgraded and developed with consultations and feedback of industry. Pedagogy : The teaching pedagogy forms the backbone of how the programme is delivered, more the practical, better it is. Entrepreneurship : Even though most of the students go for jobs, the exposure to entrepreneurship is required. This helps the professionals know how the other departments and the profit center heads work, what are the expectations etc. Professional etiquette: It is the most important part these days, the personality, ethics, virtuous, speech, body language, interpersonal skills etc. Are given high importance in the organisations. The programme must include the training or modules on all these. Community service: A bit of community projects in between the course are very important to develop the humane side of the person as well as learn the organizing skills. Diversity: As he world shrinks into an aligned economy, the professionals will be required to work in cross cultural teams having entirely different work culture and ethos, the national and international diversity of students in a B-School is helpful in enabling the students develop right sensibilities for such work atmosphere. Industry interface: Ultimately, its the industry which is going to immerse the students in the placements, the regular industrial talks, interactions, lectures, visits and internships are must have in any MBA programme. Placements: Since the ultimate aim of attaining a skill/knowledge/degree is to have a career, it is desirable that whichever university you chose, it must have good industry linkages to attract the good recruiters which value fresh talent. In all these parameters LPU has done exceptionally well in last decade or so, its unmatched placement record speaks for itself with more than 700 companies coming to campus on regular basis for recruitment. It is miles ahead of any one in the parameters stated above.
