Course Curriculum Overview

Course curriculum is very rigorous. Insurance subjects are extras with the basic MBA subjects. Curriculum is well designed and you may have mostly a packed schedule. The course starts with ice breaking sessions, industry experts seminars and other things and we have a well designed orientation program for us as studeits very helpful in getting to know about what we are going to do in the next two years here at NIA. Teaching methods include presentations, case study discussions, informational videos, etc. Exams are every three months except the 3rd trimestwhich is the most hectic where exams are just in 2 months as we all head to start the internship. The curriculum prepares us very well from the basic insurance knowledge to the practical working in the industry what applies what skills are needed everything. Difficulty level is 'doable' its definitely tough managing the presentations, assignments and study but surely doable in the time we get. Its an amazing experience overall

Placement Experience:

During my time the first company that visited our organization was Naukri.com, and feel proud to say that i got placed in the same organization. I am very happy with my placement. But talking about my peers. Number of companies who visited to our institute was compared to low as per our expectations. Majority of the companies who visited the institute were sales based organizations. Very less companies for finance and HR field. This made a difficult call for students.

Placement Experience:

The placement scenerio at our caollege can be described as average overall. Most recruiting company belong to the banking and supply chain sectors. Marketing students generally have better placement opportunities, while finance and HR students do get job, though the package are not very high. Buswiness analytics has limited scope as very few companies visit the campus for the roles in that domain.

I did choose this course as I am genuinely interested in management and if it is healthcare management that makes me excited. There is a different teaching faculty for each and every subject. The faculties are highly qualified market professionals and experts who teach in an extremely interactive and practical way. They are very supportive.
