What is the value of a weekend MBA at IIM Bangalore when compared to a full time MBA?

SG
Shruti Gupta Posted On : May 18th, 2022
studied at Indian Institute of Management Bangalore

The weekend MBA from IIM Bangalore can help you enhance your career. Be it weekend or fulltime doing an MBA from IIM Bangalore is a huge feat. You can benefit a lot from the brand value of the institute. 

The weekend MBA is designed for working professionals. If you can do self-learning without any supervision, this can be a good opportunity. But peer-to-peer learning is limited for this course. 

The coursework will be heavy. It will keep you busy throughout the week as well as the weekend. If you have a full-time job, you need to learn to balance things and utilize your time efficiently. You will learn through class presentations, mini-projects, quizzes, book reports, etc. You will have access to the library, and computer labs. There are no placements, but you can find jobs through networking.

DG
Damini Ghose Posted On : June 19th, 2021
MBA, PSG Institute of Management (2018)
 

PSG Institute of Management is a good college for pursuing an MBA if you want to give yourself a platform to showcase your skills and learn a few new skills during the education process. The college will definitely encourage you to pursue your career goals. However, if you compare it to other B-schools located in Delhi, Mumbai or Bangalore it has a less diverse peer group.

Higher Studies:

The college also offers a separate course to the students who are willing to continue their higher studies in this field after graduation in some foreign university in USA or Canada or Germany etc. The college does not reveal the placement data.

Placements:

I have a friend who is an alumnus of the institute, according to him the average CTC offered at the institute is 4 LPA and the highest goes up to around 11 LPA. The placement average for his batch (2016-17) was around 90-95%. Some of them got double offers as well. Sales roles are the most common role which is offered to students here.

Finally what is your expectation from the institute is what defines if the college is good for you or not. Overall it is a good institute when compared to other management colleges affiliated with Anna University.
