Here are some of the reasons that should be mentioned:
DSE MBA was founded in 1986, whereas FMS was founded in 1954.
An older institute has more alumni to leverage for placements and thus more alumni to build credibility in the institute branding.
Until 2015, DSE offered a "Master" degree in HR/OD and IB, titled Master of Organization Development and Human Resources and Master of International Business. Two things stand out: i) HR/OD and IB are niche areas to enter in comparison to an MBA-Fin and MBA-Marketing. ii) A MHROD/MIB has lower popularity than an MBA.
FMS has significantly more industry exposure than DSE, owing primarily to alumni/family of alumni/friends of alumni.
Quality of Faculty: Though both FMS and DSE are run by DU, what DU lacks in academic-focused faculty is more than made up for in FMS, which has regular mandatory industry guest lecturers.
The higher cut-off in FMS (relative to DSE) year after year ensures (though is not guaranteed) a certain quality benchmark of students coming in, leading to increased competition and peer learning. Something DSE could think about.
