M.A. Economics, Delhi School of Economics (2017)

Delhi School of Economics, Madras School of Economics, and Mumbai School of Economics and Public Policy are reputed institutes for offering quality education in Economics. If you are considering the Mumbai region, Mumbai University’s Kalina campus is a good institute to do a Master’s in economics. 

  • The college has a good syllabus which covers almost 8 core papers in the first two semesters. 
  • Students get the opportunity of doing a summer internship which is assisted by MSEPP. These internships ensure students can confidently enter the corporate world after completing their courses.

In the Mumbai region, IGIDR and MSEPP are the best options for pursuing MA in Economics with good curriculums. IGIDR should be the first preference if you can score well enough in the entrance exam. A close second is MSEPP but it has a heavy dropout percentage.

For marketing, which among SIBM-Pune, NMIMS-Mumbai or MICA is the best?

TC
Tanuj Chandra Posted On : March 9th, 2023
MBA from SVKM's NMIMS (Graduated 2018)

If you're looking to specialize in marketing and work in fields such as strategic communication, advertising, and media management, then MICA would be the perfect fit for you. They offer a range of courses and programs that focus specifically on marketing, making it an ideal choice for those who want to go deep in this field.

However, if you're an engineer looking for a more general approach to sales and marketing, you may want to consider NMIMS Mumbai, SIBM Pune, or IMT Ghaziabad. All three institutes are similar in their approach to marketing, but each has its unique advantages and disadvantages.

NMIMS Mumbai, for example, has a higher cost and a smaller campus compared to SIBM and IMT. However, it also boasts a strong brand and alumni network, which can be very advantageous when it comes to finding jobs or internships. Additionally, the packages offered by NMIMS are generally higher than those at IMT and slightly better than SIBM.

On the other hand, SIBM Pune and IMT Ghaziabad offer a larger campus and a more affordable cost of attendance. However, they may not have the same level of brand recognition or alumni network as NMIMS Mumbai.

Ultimately, it comes down to what you value most in an institute. If you want a strong brand and alumni network and are willing to pay a higher cost for it, then NMIMS Mumbai might be the right choice for you. If you're looking for a more affordable option with a larger campus, then SIBM Pune or IMT Ghaziabad may be a better fit.
