Choice between Great Lakes PGPBA and IIM Calcutta EPBA. Which one to choose?

AN
Anirudha Nataraja Posted On : December 9th, 2022
MBA in Marketing, Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (Graduated 2020)

The BA course has been recently initiated at both institutes. Without second thoughts, Great Lakes has top-notch faculty who handle the courses meticulously. But the competitor IIM Calcutta makes the discussion more difficult.

The only difference between the two courses is that IIM Calcutta has probably started the BA course because of its flagship PGPM program under the IIMC brand. Whereas Great Lakes BA is another flagship program. So the focus might be better.

Choose IIM Calcutta if you are willing to attach yourself to its brand name for the rest of your life.

AB

Lives in Bangalore

SIBM Bangalore, TAPMI, and Great Lakes PGPM are top Indian business schools with distinct capabilities. Your job goals and choices determine it.

SIBM Bangalore has a robust curriculum, skilled instructors, and a focus on practical learning through case studies and industry interactions. Many top companies hire from the institute. Students have several internship and business engagement possibilities in Bangalore, a hub for top corporations.

TAPMI is a top business school with rigorous academics, skilled faculty, and excellent industry contacts. Many top companies hire from the institute. TAPMI is in Manipal, Karnataka, a university town that fosters study.

Great Lakes PGPM, is known for its academic curriculum, experienced professors, and creative programs. A unique 1-year program at the institute gives students the skills and knowledge they need to excel in the fast-changing corporate environment.

It's up to you to decide what kind of return on investment (ROI), brand value, and/or location/career convenience you need from your business school. TAPMI and Great Lakes provide comparable average packages (between 11 and 12 lakhs per year), but SIBM Bangalore's average is lower, at 9 to 10 lakhs. Great Lakes Chennai is the best option out of the three because it has the most appealing combination of affordable rates and a well-known name brand. When compared to SIBM Pune and Great Lakes, TAPMI and SIBM Bangalore both fall short.

Which is better NMIMS Bangalore or Great Lakes Gurgaon PGPM, for someone who wants to switch from IT to marketing?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : May 17th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

NMIMS Bangalore is better than Great Lakes Gurgaon PGPM, and Great Lakes’s Manipal campus is only better. 

The other campuses at Great Lakes are still in the growing stage, so I would suggest you not to choose them. Instead, you can opt for NMIMS, the faculties there are experienced, and they have industry exposure as well, plus you have a location advantage. Many companies have their offices in Bangalore, so it would be easy for you to grab a placement there. NMIMS also has a great student culture from various clubs and committees you can groom yourself.

Should a poor student study an MBA from private B-schools like TAPMI, KJ Somaiya, GLIM, BIM, GIM, etc.?

VJ
Vrishank Jain Posted On : April 29th, 2023
PGDM Post Graduate Diploma in Management, T. A. Pai Management Institute (2019)

The decision to pursue an MBA program from a private business school will depend on your responsibilities, family background, and financial strength. Apart from these, the factor that should be the most important to a poor student should be ROI. 

If you consider the average fees, the course duration, and the average package during placements, you can calculate the amount of time it will probably take to pay off your student loans. You can extend this method of evaluation to the various colleges mentioned in your question, and then pick the one with not only the best ROI, but also the least amount of time it takes for repayment.
