During that time, the college was a rented apartment building in a residential area, but now it is a proper functioning college. There was no canteen and no hostels. The classrooms were well maintained. There was proper ventilation in all the classrooms. At that time, there were no smart boards or Wi-Fi.
Academics were fine. The quality of teaching was good and teachers used to help the students whenever needed. Since students per class used to be less, so the teachers were able to focus more on each student individually. The curriculum had all the necessary material for PGDM degree.
The placements were not that good. The average package also was moderate. Some students got placed in companies, some started their own business while others joined their family business. The college was supportive in terms of whatever we wanted to do.
The course fee was very reasonable for the management program at that time, considering the campus and minimum facilities. It was good enough to get a degree from during that time because it was one of the only known management colleges in UP.
The campus life at our college was good. We had a lot of sports events as well as academic events. The management students also used to have guest lectures, by entrepreneurs. Extracurricular activities were a little limited compared to today’s colleges.
It is oldest Management Institute of U.P. recognised by Uttar Pradesh Technical Education, Management Faculty is awesome,helping & career oriented. Many students of this Institute are working/ have worked in Premier MNCs or in Govt organizations. In this competitive environment it's time tested Institute. This Institute have all modern facilities which are required these days .
My experience of this Institute is excellent. Since soon after my Graduation I joined this Institute which has transformed a normal science graduate to a professional one . I started my professional journey with Big Organizations like Cadila,Pfizer,Axis Max Life & Tata AIA .
They create Job Bazar where in Top companies visit the campus and based of stream of Students and requirements of the organization's interviews are scheduled under the roof of campus ,where almost everyone is placed with good CTC.
Definitely it's a good value for money. Since I did almost 30 yrs back it was not very expensive one.
Campus life is full of value add wherein one can cross learn many things as students come from different walk of life & experiences.
Thanks
