Remarks

There's kinda politics and partiality goes on but you can't avoid it as it happens everywhere.

Entrance Preview

It was one of the best in Karnataka and it was oldest as well with very cost effective fees and I learned that lecturers are resourceful which turned out to be true with decent infrastructure facilities. You can opt-in this college if you are okay with not getting placed in a campus.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Curriculum is very Outdated, But basics are covered. there will be alot of Assignments and project based learning which will help you have a practical perspective of understanding the concept. It's CBCS- Choice based Credit system where you can choose any subject you want unless you fulfil your minimum credits.its an interesting system which is very favourable to students.

Internships Opportunities

No, But it allows you to take internship and it's mandatory actually, for 2nd semester and 4th semester. Stipend ranges from unpaid to 5k.

Placement Experience

3

Institute doesn't get alot of good recruiters but you can go attend interviews in other colleges of Hubli Dharwad district and it's mutual so that's a good thing, apart from that College has huge Alumni network as it is one of the oldest MBA college so that helps

College Events

4

SAMAR is a sport event Initially there will be orientation events which ranges between 1-5 days Then a Fest called Kshitij Then Darpan is one of the biggest event where all the alumni meets and it's a platform where Students meet alumni. Then Samarpan it's nothing but a Send off party

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fees structure is one of the cheapest in Karnataka. It doesn't even cost 1Lakh including all the expenses if you get hostel. Scholarships are also available to some extent. Overall a very cost effective college to be frank where any kinda aspirants can earn an MBA

Fees and Financial Aid

No such facility as it's a government college but Loan could be taken from any bank feasible for you.

Campus Life

1.5

Gender Ratio is equal, Campus life is lovely if everyone gets along. Sports events ar held once an year so not alot of scope there but if you really are passionate university can make a way for you. labs are not good enough and library too isn't very good. But university library is very nearby and can access very easily. Competitions are rarely held.

Hostel Facilities

4

College food is covered in Management fees which is totally transparent and quality is good enough for the money paid. Hostel facility is alotted category wise so that would be a Con and you need to buy food if you are not in college I meant to say hostel doesn't have mess facility

Alumni/Alumna

Alumni network is very strong it depends on students to take use of it, but if taken use correctly it can build your career.

Admission

First Document Verification of You Degree Marks card and Degree Completion Certificate with ID proofs. Application Fees. Then fill the applications Deposit the PGCET fees of 25K it depends on the Caste and category with it will eventually be refunded but takes time Then college fees with management fees which will cover food book and uniforms.

Faculty

3.5

Few Faculties are very Resourceful and they cover most of the subjects so that's the plus point. If you are lucky enough you will get good teaching Fellowship students who will be doing Ph.D. under the Assistant Lecturers. Then there are few lecturers who you can't take seriously too.. learn accordingly.

Placement Experience:

Placements in the college are good for marketing specialization. Compared to other specializations, from semester 2 itself, students become eligible for campus placements. Companies like Deloitte, KPMG, ICICI Bank, and HDFC Bank visit the campus. The highest package this year was 40 LPA, and the average package is around 6.5 LPA. The percentage of students getting placed is 70% for now. After getting the degree, selection in a good company is my plan.

Placement Experience:

The average package offered is moderate and there are limited opportunities for high paying roles compared to top tier colleges. Companies that visit the campus are mostly small to mid sized organizations. The placement cell is very supportive and conduct training sessions such as aptitude tests, mock interviews and soft skills development to prepare students for placements.

Placement Experience:

Placement in my college is decent, wiyh around 90% of students are getting placed. Students usually become eligible for placement in their final year and the college provides internships opportunities before that, which helps in gaining experience. Many companies visit to campus mainly from marketing and sales, along with some roles in HR and operations. The number of offer is good but option for finance and analytic are comparatively limited.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose this course because to get good knowledge like finance and accounts marketing and sales in two years of my masters . The circulum was well prepared me in completing two years of my graduation by studing in my academic subject. There should be some changes need to be made by improving the course circulum and teaching methods like time table of exams class room time table College timings etc Yes the timimg of exams were not so easy it was very hard for me to go to college it was so far to go from home but the college has no buses facility and i have already try to reach so early.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would like to rate the course 7 out of 10. Because as these is a distance learning many difficulties occur. I am doing a MBA in ksou after my graduation in b. Com. As ksou comes under UGT it is more helpful for the job seeker. As per my knowledge the faculty should conduct a more classes may be through online so that the working people can attend the classes from wherever they want. There are many distance learning courses in ksou academic platform but they are not handling in a accuracy. They take a lot of time to announce a results, even to conduct a exams they take a lot of time. The question paper are sometimes difficult and the question will be from out of syllabus which will be difficult to attend. Distance learning course is difficult to manage

Practically 80% of my 2020 batch was given job offer by top recruiting organizations like Amazon, iGate, Accenture, HCL, Infosys, Wipro, DE Shaw & Co. Typically the average package they offered to people was around 3- 4 lakhs and the highest was way up to 10 lakhs. Our College possessed an active location cell that functioned hard to provide recruitment and other job opportunities to us.
