An investment which gives you a good return & free memories

Our college provides an excellent infrastructure with a big campus and all facilities. In order to enhance the corporate exposure, we are provided with continuous interaction with industry experts as guest lecturers and industry visiting that provides us a practical learning. The college life made me so enjoyable - all the late night parties are a bliss, friends, late night assignments and ppt's, last moment preparations, campus, friendly faculty, and atmosphere. I am still pursuing my 2nd year of MBA - so will be placed by December. Our hostels are provided with all the facilities, what do you want apart from that. Exceptional professors from my college are most of the faculty but as I am a marketing bug, marketing facilities are the best. The student crowd at our college is 300 which is pretty good enough for a perfect B-school limited students, great caring by the faculty, fabulous placements and moreover the way one get to know each other is very easy. Small crowd but tough students as each one of them have excellent talents where you can find in this place. In my point-of-view b-schools must have a small crowd as it is not a school to have overloaded students. My college is affordable in terms of placements, enjoyment, campus, infrastructure, hostel, facilities, care taken by faculty, friends and fellow members,counselling sessions, and events that take place.

Revolution of Life at Great Lakes

We learn, fight for the competitions and never utilize the learning and in the long run forget the teachings and work according to our daily requirement. But at Great lakes, I learned how to absorb knowledge and utilize in our daily work. The best way of teaching I have ever experienced with world-class faculty. The course is designed very nicely to make us discover our true potentials and work on weakness. The course is hectic as it is a one year program. Probably, you might get a 6 hours sleep once in a blue moon. But it has developed my attitude towards life. The campus is under construction hopefully next batch will get a fully working campus. Till now only indoor games are available but outdoor facilities must be provided. The best feature of the bschool is World Class faculty and the guidance they provide. Placement season is soon to come and as the college has secured AICTE approval and permanent campus there are high hopes of good companies entering the campus. Our CCS team is working hard by collecting leads and interacting with corporate people engaging with them and inviting them to a Guest lecture or some event.As its a one year program, it's a fast pace course and you can't do any extracurricular activities but college must help us with some time and facilities for the same. Our hostels are good, facilities are good. Some Professors were there who made an impact on me as they taught Marketing in a very practical manner which made me think and develop my marketing skills very easily. They made our learning very very easy and made us think more rather than mugging more. We have 25 girls and 75 boys in our college and all come from diverse background and add up their knowledge and learning at their work. So, a good peer learning happens. Fees I paid were approx 14 lac for my course and the quality education what is being offered makes me feel affordable education. In one line I will say Great Lakes makes a leader with all important qualities and knowledge.

Overall a good experience of learning at great lakes

The best part about great lakes is the faculty.They do have an excellent faculty with professors coming from respective industries to teach different subjects.The course curriculum is updated as per the changing trends in the industry.For example subjects like Digital marketing and Internet Business are taught which are emerging field.The one things which disappoints is that they still do not have a campus which makes life difficult for students.Talking about placements over the last few years , it has been a good option for people who are planning to get into the IT industry and e-commerce industry. Overall its a good option to take up if one cannot wait to have another shot at the mba entrance exams.

Peerless faculty with exemplary curriculum structure

Doing one year PGPM at Great Lakes has been a stupendous experience in terms of learning various diversified courses especially analytics subjects, coordination with team members, projects in courses, live project, guest lectures. Getting to know various dimensions of business domains, management related happenings, insights to approach taken in resolving business problem by case studies or through class room discussion has been sensational experience. Emphasis has been on enhancing skill sets and developing new competencies while learning term courses will be a key ingredient to success in coming days.

Exceptional Industry Contact with formidable faculty base

Excellent Curriculum with pronounced industry interaction, Location of Great lakes is a big plus point which is in vicinity to major e-commerce players; Knowledge gained till date has been remarkable as inputs and insights of subjects has been substantial in terms of length and breath if not depth. Projects in every subject and team work, interaction with faculty and classmates has been an enriching experience. Though downside is Great Lakes not having its own campus, big takeaways have been industry exposure, guest lectures from eminent CXO's . Hence I had magnificent experience in Great Lakes.

Good could have been better

well to say about the college infrastructure it will be worth speaking only when we shift to new campus as its non existent now, apart from that hostels at Bestech towers are good cant comment about others. The 3 batches PGPM, PGPME 1st year and 2nd year are housed in 3 separate hostels which have no restrictions at all(the best part).Faculty is the USP here and i believe its one of the best in India( pooling in with GLIM Chennai). College life is virtually non existent for PGPM term 1 and 2 is bit light but from term 3 its hell and u dnt have time even for our self.The industry exposure is again what stands out and the mentoring by teachers especially the marketing faculty is just too good. All in all a place that could have been more better considering it has all the ingredients to stand out. Wont mention anything about placements as the data in site is not fake and after 5 months in here, placement package is not something i m worried about.more concerned with the role i will land.

Great experience at Great Lakes

It has been a very hectic experience in this one year at Great Lakes Gurgaon. But, one thing which I must say is that the faculty has been fabulous. It has been a great learning experience. Although the infrastructure is a major drawback for this college but the learning experience just overshadows all other drawbacks.

Excellent curriculum combined with rich industry exposure

A excellent place to be. Has a great connect with the upcoming industries such as e-commerce and business analytics. The staff are excellent and ever approaching. The insights provided are excellent. The only blemish is the college campus. The session begins with a energizing outbound visit to either of Rishikesh or Jim Corbett National park and is a wonderful beginning. The hostel though not in the college campus is a good place to be in. Things to focus are-: a bit on placements and on a college campus. the college is very well led by Lakhamraju brothers and they are headed in the correct direction. All the Best !

Excellent faculty and comprehensive development of students

Ideal place to one who is looking out to make headwinds in energy sector. Predominantly the faculty , industry exposure as well as the individual attention given to individual students considering the smaller batch size is are the few takeaways for this institution.

Decent Faculty,very hectic course.

College has a great infrastructure,good placements,diversity in students but to top it all, it has a very good faculty.Most professors come with vast amount of experience in top notch universities.Placements are generally in IT/ITes domain,which is the only point college can do better upon.

Kick-ass faculty!

The institute is 1 of the fastest growing colleges in the country. The faculty is bad. The placements have risen every year since it's inception in 2010. The first campus was established in 2004 in Chennai and the placement figures from there have carried on to the Gurgaon campus. The average ctc for the batch of 2014 was 8.28 L which increased to 8.74 L for the 2015 batch. The campus is due for an upgrade in Vasant Kunj. As of now, they operate out of a temporary campus in Udyog Vihar, a stone's throw away from all the major corporates in Cyber City. This adds to the college's advantage to attract top corporate for guest lectures as well as final placements. Check out the portfolio of the companies that visit the campus. It is awesome.
