Various organizations have ranked all of the colleges' MBA programmes highly. 

NDIM Delhi and BIMTECH Noida are notable MBA colleges in the national capital region, whereas XIME Bangalore and Christ Bangalore are well-established in Bangalore. Location, school atmosphere, curriculum, and career path will determine your ideal college. Work experience, graduation percentage, group discussion, personal interview, and other aspects also matter. Calling colleges after thorough study and personal interaction is best. One responder recommends XIME Bangalore, while another suggests BIMTECH Noida for its accreditation and placement record. Before choosing, weigh all your possibilities.

First of all, I don’t deem it right for you to compare an MBA with Development studies as both are vastly different. Even comparing a General MBA with that in Rural Management is unjustified. The choice of the program depends on what your inclinations and interests are and what you want to do with your degree.

The points below will help you know the right choice for some general preferences.

• Rural Management: If you want to be in the new markets and provide forward linkages to rural enterprises or backward linkages to large-scale industries, then Rural Management is best for you.
• Development Studies: If you are willing to work in the policy sector, with an understanding of the development and public policy, and want to become an expert in project management, development, and implementation works in both rural and urban development, in a human and spatial context, then Development Studies is perfect for you.
• For Money: If money is your primary goal then look for a good MBA college as the ones you mentioned are just average.

It is essential to know what exactly a course offers and what you are after only then you can make an informed decision

For MCA, Christ University is a much better option than NMIMS mainly because of its location in Bangalore, the IT hub of the country. Also, the general ambiance of Christ University is perfect for MCA. There are strict rules within the campus and many consider it a flaw but in reality, this has led to confidence and skill development amongst the students.

Christ University is the kind of institution that does not just deliver the curriculum but also helps you stand up and understand yourself and deal with everything in life. Even in terms of rankings, Christ University fares better than NMIMS. Its organization is better than NMIMS and makes any individual career-oriented. If you have a certain goal in life and you are diligent about achieving it, Christ University will give you the reins to do so. 

Christ University does have certain demerits like the dress code and mess facility, yet if someone is totally focused on their career, these things hardly matter.

It’s your attitude towards learning that matters more than the college itself. Yet if I have to comment on the two colleges, I would say Christ University is a fairly good choice. The main reasons are

• The fest culture makes you come out of your comfort zones and test your limits and diversify your talents.
• The overqualified rules set by the college increase your patience level ten folds
• You get to live in Bangalore, the city of innumerable opportunities and dreams.

However, if you are joining the college with the mindset of being taught then you need to rectify it. Here it’s you who has to force yourself to learn no one is going to push you. Anyone who wants to learn about business, in reality, will not be able to gain much from this B School. The B School churns out managers only. Rarely does it give birth to a business owner or entrepreneur despite the university’s module for entrepreneurship in a semester.

In my opinion, the best course among these is IPM. Some might even think I am a little biased towards this course but in reality once you learn the advantages of this program you will change your mind.

The Programme consists of 15 terms spread over a period of 5 years, with each year having 3 terms of 3 months. The subjects of the initial 3 years focus on the foundation and the last 2 years have core subjects that focus on Management.

• The programme is designed by renowned experts.
• IIM-I tag
• Amazing infrastructure
• Excellent faculty 
• Extensive network of alumnis
• Peers from diverse backgrounds (The last 2 years are along with PGP students )
• Great placement opportunities 
• Wide range of co-curricular activities

Cons :

• Programme is new so recruiters and big companies don’t trust it much
• It experiences bias when compared to the old PGP model.
• In case one doesn't like the programme, you can not change the stream again.
• IPM offers very limited scope
• No specialization 
• Freshers are not much preferred in comparison to experienced placements.
• High fees

Still if you are not convinced that IPM is the best alone the courses you mentioned, the order for the other courses is

SSCBS> NMIMS> Christ

The only advantage the other courses have over IPM is that their model is tried and tested and open to lesser risks. Hence the scope is not that much limited.

Choosing between IIM and Christ University is not a difficult decision. Without second thoughts, forgo the offer from Christ University and go for IIM Indore. This is because

• The title of IIM is more than enough to open opportunities for you in the future
• You will get better exposure and crowd at IIM than at Christ university
• Obviously the placement opportunities are better at IIM than at any other university.

Particulars	IIM Indore	Christ University
Average CTC	INR 24.09 LPA	INR 15 LPA
Highest CTC	INR 21.46 LPA	INR 49 LPA

Even if both the colleges offer similar packages IIM has a bigger brand image and will help you in the long run.

IPM or Integrated Program in Management is a 5 year program launched by IIM Indore in 2011. It has been accredited by the Association of MBAs,

London

This program enjoys a placement rate of 100%. The highest salary package offered was around INR 40 LPA and the lowest salary package offered was INR 8 LPA. This program offers roles like finance analyst and marketing manager. The program is for:

• Young students who want to become the best leaders
• Students who have passed out of class XII/Higher Secondary or equivalent from schools across India.

Duration:

This 5-year integrated course in management is a 15-term program. Each year has 3 terms and each term is for 3 months

 

It all depends on what you want to do. Here are a few things to think about: 

• Flexibility -You have a lot of time at DU. You can study Actuarial Science, CFA, CFP, Data Analyst, CIMA, ACCA, CS, CWA, and many other things. As a result, more career opportunities are available at DU. Christ is very strict about attendance, and you don't have time, so you must concentrate solely on the course.

• Fees - College fees are approximately Rs 12000 per year, as opposed to Rs 1,000,000 in Christ.

• Exposure - There are numerous societies at DU that can provide excellent exposure. Society is better in Christ, but imagine 4000 students competing for that opportunity. Furthermore, DU departmental and college fest are better experiences for students than Christ because students manage everything from arranging funds to organizing every event without much help from authorities. Furthermore, you can compete in competitions organized by various DU colleges ranging from debate, music, and dance to mock stock, treasure hunt, and beg, borrow, and steal. However, because you are required to give regular presentations in class and because of the diversity of students, Christ aids in the development of an average person's personality. 

• Placement- At 95%, you can get DCAC or Shaheed Bhagat College, which do not have a placement boost of more than 20-30%. However, in Christ, you will receive more than 70% placement ( depends upon course though ). The average salary given is not significantly different. (Approximately 3 to 4). However, some companies that offer better packages do come in Christ ( i.e above 5 lac ) Some sales and marketing firms unrelated to your course may be present in DU.

• Curriculum - The curriculum at DU is outdated and lacks a practical aspect, whereas at Christ, they will provide you with numerous case studies and a rigorous syllabus. During your three-year tenure at Christ, you will be required to complete an internship and work in an NGO.

• Emotional Benefit - Because Christ has a good ranking, a large crowd, a great environment, and a good infrastructure, you will feel more confident. It might not be the case in DU.

• Faculty- Professors at DU are far more qualified than those at other colleges, and some are published authors as well. However, because they are a government institution, some do not teach at all and waste time. There are a few who teach exceptionally well. In Christ, even if they are not college or research paper qualified, almost all of them teach and even encourage students to come to them. 

• Alumni & Peer Group - Alumni of Christ are not strong enough to make a significant impact. North campus colleges in DU have excellent alumni. In terms of the south campus, it is the same as Christ for colleges such as SBSC, DCAC, Gargi, and so on. Peer group is also similar in terms of hard work and intelligence (though it may be higher in DU). However, the overall alumni of Delhi University are far more accomplished than Christ ever will be. 

Colleges also assist in providing an initial push. It makes no difference where you went to college once you get a job. So it all depends on your goals and the type of person you are. If you can plan and follow it, you will have more time to do things that will help you achieve your goals more easily because Delhi has the best coaching facilities for everything. If you simply cannot, choose Christ because you will be required to work due to regular assignments, which instills discipline in a person.
