What Students Say

Likes

There is very less pressure on the students & curriculum is chill
Gender ratio is better than average engineering degree
Fees is not very high for this MBA degree

Dislikes

Infrastructure is pretty average, it can be improved
Placements can also be improved a lot in this college for MBA
Teachers are experienced but not very good in terms of teaching, just average

Course Curriculum Overview

First, the curriculum syllabus & topics are pretty standard, what you see in other MBA colleges. So theoretical aspect is fine. It covers all the topics that you'll expect in a normal MBA course. The teachers are experienced but not very good in teaching, to be honest. You will feel its a tier 3 college. As far as exams are concerned, there are two mid semester exams & one end semester exam, in a single semester.

Class Size: 70Course Fees: INR 120000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Internships opportunities are available, but not every internship is paid. If you can grab an offcampus internship it is much better. Typically you can 2 months summer break where you'll officially be doing the internship. Very few Companies give PPO. Big & famous companies like EY, PWC, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs etc. do not come for oncampus internships & full time job also

Placement Experience

Campus placement is ok ok. Not very good if I am being honest. Average package can be around 6 lakh CTC. Some companies that hire are Reliance Industries Limited, Hindustan Unilever, Voltas, Maruti Suzuki, Cognizant etc. Apart from placements some students prepare for government competitive exams like UPSC, SSC etc.

Fees and Financial Aid

Fees is ok for a MBA degree. Its not very high as some private institutions or IIM. Do keep in mind the standard will also be lower. State government provided scholarship is available for the students. You can expect approximately 50K in scholarship amount.

Campus Life

The infrastructure is average. Its an old college and it shows in the infrastructure. It is one area where this college can improve. Campus life is also not very exciting or extraordinary, just average to say the least. Also if you're in hostel you'll enjoy more than a day scholar. Various clubs are there like robotics club, aero club, drama club etc. You can choose what you like. These clubs organise various activities from time to time.

Admission

The admission process was fairly simple & straight forward. HBTU conducts its own counseling for admission in MBA program. You should have atleast 55% in your under graduation course. If you have cleared CAT then you can apply for the MBA program here & based on the ranking/ percentile you'll get admission. For counseling related information keep checking the college website.

Worth it

Placement Experience:

Placements of our college is good. Most of our seniors got placed in good organizations. Companies lying under fortune 500 also comes in our college for placement. And before internship each student have to go through a live project provided by the college which will help in deciding the specialization.

I Business Institute overview from the point of view of the student.

Placement Experience:

Students when they comes back from their summer internships, starts appearing for the internship interviews. The final interviews takes place months before the completion of the course. Companies like amul, delloit, amazon, meesho, flipkart comes in the campus for hiring. Many students get the PPO from their intership companies and they dont have to sit fot the final placements. the highest package offerd is 28LPA and the lowest rangese between 6 to 8 LPA. Almost 90 percent students get placed and rest opts for starting their own startups. After completing the cousre i want to place myself in a reputed company in a reputed designation, however through our curriculum i am also looking to start my own startup and work upon it simultaneously my job.

My collage identity

This college is the 2nd best B.Tech college in UP after IIT and its placement is also good. One has to clear JEE for admission in HBTU in which one has to get rank in thousand for CSE .Those with lower rank can try the sports round once, in which there are more chances of losing admission in lower branch like FT OT. Since my rank was 10 lakh, my admission also happened in the sports round....Read More

All About the HBTU throught the lens of a first year student.

The other colleges which i applied to were IET Lucknow , IIIT Una , IIIT Dharwad and other lower IIITs . I choose over those since this colleges reputation and placements spoke for itself they had a very good track record regarding this course and many famous companies have been coming here repeatedly. The admission in this college is through HBTU e-counselling site which is a standalone website managed by HBTU itself . It has a registration fees of 2500 rupees is non refundable . There you fill your choice of courses . The branch is alloted according to your JEE MAINS rank and your preference list . After the seat allotment letter you have to visit college and there you will have to submit your documents then you will be given a provisional admission letter and you are given a choice to upgrade your branch to the courses you have selected in your preference list. The admission in this college for UG is given through only JEE MAINS for engineering and all other branches leaving Biotechonlogy and Biochemical where you can get admission through CUET....Read More

I only applied on josaa counselling and then in HBTU. My rank was not good enough to get a confirm seat in any core branch . Then I opted for HBTU counselling which was providing better seat in that rank if compared .Then onwards I didn't apply in any of the college. To get admission in HBTU Kanpur, you can register in the college counselling and fill the desired seats. Counselling goes for three round.If not get selected, you can try last time in spot round if seats are vacant. Only students with jee mains result will get admission....Read More
