Is it easy to get into NICMAR Pune?

AS
Aditya Sapra Posted On : October 7th, 2021
Studied Project Management, National Institute of Construction Management and Research, Pune (2014)

It is a bit easy to get into NICMAR but this doesn't mean that you will take the entrance exam very casually. I have seen various people who have tried more than three times to get enrolled in NICMAR Pune.

You have to be sincere with the preparation and work hard. Prepare from RS Aggarwal for the Aptitude section because it is more than enough. Don't spend much time on the Quant because it is going to be a lengthy process. Rather you can solve questions on topics you are already confident enough as it would be helpful.

For the interview process, dress up properly and be confident. Don't be nervous because the interviewers observe your body language.

Moreover, NICMAR offers sponsored seats with 5% seats reserved for the management quota. If you are unable to crack the entrance exam, you can get a seat through this quota. The only condition will to be pay 1.5 times more fee than a regular student.

Which course is best to do from NICMAR that has better future aspects?

NW
Nitin Wadhwa Posted On : October 16th, 2021
Studied PGP-REUIM from National Institute of Construction Management and Research

At NICMAR, there is no such thing as the best course. All courses are at par in terms of job profiles, packages, recruiters, and others. However, PGP ACM is the flagship program by the institute. 

PGP REUIM course recorded stellar placements in the past year with the top recruiters like KPMG, L&T Realty, Oberoi, PwC, Samsung, and CBRE. Recently, even PGP IFDM students had performed exceptionally well.

In the end, it depends upon your knowledge and skills. Decide based on the course curriculum rather than peeping into the placement statistics, as it is subject to the caliber of the batch each year.

Is NICMAR a good choice for construction management? Why?

SJ
Sanskriti Jain Posted On : October 16th, 2021
Studied at National Institute of Construction Management and Research (2018)

NICMAR has existed for more than 30 years and is a pioneer institute in construction management. The curriculum has been specifically designed to cater to the future requirements of construction managers.

The faculty members are exceptionally great in terms of industrial experience. A few subjects might seem easy but they will add great value to your career. However, NICMAR is not under any university but is well-known in India and Middle-Eastern regions. The only advantage is that it is practical-oriented to the students.

If you wish to join any construction management institute, it will be recommended to have atleast 2 years of industrial experience. You will be able to grasp the concepts easily.

Yes, you can take a loan and study at NICMAR as it is worth the risk. But it is entirely your decision. People who come to the university and work hard do receive decent opportunities. 

One of my friends joined the institute a few years back. He took a 10.5 lakh education loan from CREDILA. He was also uncertain about his decision. But after completing his course he is certain, he made the right choice. He made the most of his time at the institute and scored 6.92 CPI. Which provided him with a lot of decent opportunities.

What is the number of architects that do project management at NICMAR Pune compared to civil engineers?

SA
Shatrughan Arora Posted On : September 20th, 2021
PGP Project Engineering Management, National Institute of Construction Management and Research, Pune (2019)

My friend had joined the Advanced Construction Management (ACM )branch in NICMAR, I'd suggest that you join it as well.

In his ACM class, there were 6 architects and in total there were 60–100 architects in NICMAR. Architects are required in abundance too. They have a good scope in the future and many well-known companies need architects for their multi-role profiles. Many interior design companies require specialized designers for interiors.

Also, there are only a few architects in the college so chances of getting a placement are higher. So definitely go join and fulfill your goals.

What is the scope for me from changing my admission offer from NICMAR ACM hyd to ACM Pune?

RM
Rahul Mathur Posted On : September 10th, 2021
Studied Post Graduation Program Advanced Construction Management, NICMAR (2019)

Post Graduate Program in Advanced Construction Management (PGP-ACM) is the best course offered at NIMCAR. 

The Pune campus is the best among all as the placements are great there. However, the Hyderabad campus is also not bad if not better than the Pune campus. The faculty is top-notch as well.

It is highly unlikely to get a shift from Hyderabad to Pune. You may like the Pune campus but the Hyderabad campus is also really good and you should not worry much about which campus you are getting.

Which is better: a construction management from NICMAR or post-graduation in construction management from Canada?

AT
Ankita Thakkar Posted On : October 25th, 2021
PGP-ACM Construction Management, National Institute of Construction Management and Research (2018)

I know people who did their Construction Management from NICMAR as well as other countries. Doing your Construction Management course has its advantages as you will learn about things related to construction in India.  However, if you pursue your course from Canada, you will get more exposure, new concepts, techniques. 

NICMAR:

Advantages- 

  • You can get a job in India or Arab countries. The industry demand is good for Construction Management in these areas. 
  • You can stay near to your family.
  • You can shift to any other country after a few years of experience.
  • If you want to change your job, the NICMAR certificate carries a lot of value.

Disadvantages- 

  • The initial investment is quite high.
  • NICMAR certificate is not recognized in western countries.

Canada:

Advantages-

  • You get a job in Canada.
  • Cushy salary
  • You will get to know new cultures and customs.

Disadvantages-

  • Degrees from Canada are not readily accepted in India, in case you want to come back to work here.
  • You will have to stay far away from friends and family. 

These are the things that you should consider before deciding where you want to pursue your degree from.

What is the difference between the advanced construction management and project management course offered by NICMAR, Pune? What is the difference between the work profile?

RJ
Rishi Joshi Posted On : September 20th, 2021
PGP-ACM Construction Management, National Institute of Construction Management and Research (2018)

There is a clear demarcation between the both. Project management is basically preparing a student for the project industry whereas advanced construction management is related to construction projects. 

  • At NICMAR, the first year of both the courses are the same as any other general management.
  • But from next year you get the projects according to your subjects like PEM students get the project industry experience in the oil or gas industry whereas ACM students get exposure to the construction projects.
  • For both the courses there is a perfect mix of faculty internally as well as some renowned professionals from outside, so that students can learn every aspect of their course.
  • Considering the profile, it totally depends upon your interest but mostly it has been seen that the civil engineers opt for ACM while mechanical or electrical engineers opt for PEM.
  • Though it is not mandatory, it totally depends upon the choice of an individual.

Lastly, we can say that there is a clear difference between the two courses, so search for the same before taking admission in any of the fields.
