How is IMS Noida for a BBA?

A friend of mine from school is completing his BBA from IMS Noida and his experience so far has been pleasant. According to him, it is also a good institute for pursuing BBA.

Pros

• Great faculty: The faculty in charge of the BBA course deserves a lot of praise. The members have a lot of knowledge pertaining to their fields. They are supportive as well as friendly.
• Good management: The efficiency in management helps the student with a proper scalar chain.
• Value-added courses: These courses include classes and certification from British Council, which have integrated with external lecturers for providing additional courses in the first year with an additional fee like Phomegap, .Net, Python.
• Guest lecturers: Popular industry experts regularly visit the campus as guests to give lectures and share their experiences.
• Extra-curricular activities: The institute has a creative club for its students. It also holds competitions in short skills.
• No ragging: My friend has never experienced ragging neither directly nor indirectly. As a matter of fact, he has a great rapport with a number of seniors.

In addition to these, the location of the college is Sec 62, Noida. It is the corporate hub of Noida. The area has two other good institutes, Jaypee Institute of Technology and Engineering and MGM College of Engineering.

Cons:

• Infrastructure: The size of the campus is not up to the mark. The classes are not air-conditioned and there is no proper canteen.
• Less exposure to Sports: Sports enthusiasts will be disappointed as the campus does not have a proper ground for basketball, football, cricket, badminton, etc. It only has a court for volleyball. Students get opportunities to participate in sporting events but exposure is not much.

Apart from these cons, the institute does not directly involve itself much in the fests. The attendance would be marked but the college rarely sponsors the students.
