Hello,

For the long run in the industry, MBA (Analytics) from IIM Kashipur is generally considered more beneficial than an MBA from IIT Kharagpur (KGP), especially for those seeking a career in business analytics or consulting. While IIT KGP offers a strong technical foundation, IIM Kashipur provides a more balanced approach, blending analytics with business management, which is crucial for leadership roles and bridging tech and management.

• If you prioritize a career in business analytics or consulting, IIM Kashipur's MBA (Analytics) program is likely a better choice due to its focus on blending analytics with business management.
  
  
• If you prefer a career that requires a strong technical foundation and a blend of technical and business skills, IIT Kharagpur's MBA program might be more suitable.

I hope you got the idea about your query. However you can also check for more details in the official websites of these colleges which are mentioned below.

Hello ,

I would suggest your brother to go for IIM( Indian Institute of Management ) Trichy(Tiruchirappalli ) as it is definitely a better IIM than IIM Kashipur as according to NIRF rankings  IIM Trichy is at 17 where as IIM Kashipur is at 33 so you can see the huge difference , also IIM Kashipur is a very new IIM in comparison to Trichy .

Your brother should choose a better college than the one which is closer to home .The placement scenario of Trichy is much better than Kashipur .

Hope this helps.
