PGDM in International Business - Batch of 2026

Very satisfied with the overall opportunities being provided at the institute.
Placements: Batch: 2024, PGDM programme. Approximately, 95% of the students were placed. The highest package offered was 30 LPA CTC, with the lowest being above the range of 9 LPA. Average packages stood in between 14-15 LPA. Deloitte, BMW, Nestled, ITC, KPMG, Adani, Teach Mahindra, GEP, ICICI Bank and RBI are the Top recruiters to name a few. Over 95% students of the students secured internships in Asian Paints, Mercer, Gartner, Genpact and many such top firms in Marketing, Finance, Operations, and Consulting Roles. The top roles offered in the course were Business Analyst, Marketing Manager, Management Trainee, Financial Consultant, and HR Partner.
Infrastructure: FORE School of Management offers modern infrastructure with the classrooms enabled with computers, speakers, and digital boards facilitating presentations, offline and online library resources enabling research, computer lab, an auditorium, and a canteen, all in a one-of-its-kind campus building. The campus also has medical facilities, and an area dedicated for indoor sports. Hostels are clean with 24/7 security and food provisions with diverse options that include both North and South Indian cuisines. They are well-managed, with staff allocated for frequent cleaning, maintaining hygiene.
Faculty: FORE School of Management has faculty members who are Ph.D. holders, Post-Graduation holders from reputed institutions from all over India, and Industry experts. Every course is allocated with the faculty staff that is best suited to teach that particular curriculum, and they communicate their knowledge in the best possible way. The course curriculum is made keeping in mind current market scenario, helping the students become corporate-ready the second they step out of the institute, which facilitates the placement opportunities that students get. The scoring is not solely based on the exams, but there are several bifurcations that decide the final grade of a student. Class participation, Group Projects, Quizzes, Mid-term and End-term examinations, all of these aspects are essential to be tended to in-order to score well. The pass percentage can be considered around 96-97.
Other: As someone with interest in Global Trade and Worldwide Business scenario, I chose PGDM International Business as my course. The course is quite paced with learnings that are embedded in both classroom lectures and outside class activities. The best thing about my course is that it allows us to develop a business acumen not only in the National but the International context, which is highly relevant in the current scenario where any corners of the world can impact the businesses worldwide. Though the institute offers an International Immersion programme for every single student who pursue any course, more global collaborations in terms of teaching can be accommodated, global experts and professors can be invited and accommodated to teach in order to increase the scope of our practical learning through the interaction with such experts. Among the many events that happen at the institute, sports fest Samar, sports competitions, both intra and inter-college, academic seminars, hackathons, case-competitions, conferences like FORE International Marketing Conference, networking events like Jubilate, and the main event Genesis, which involves quite a few competitions, showcasing of talent in fashion and dance, and a DJ night are few of the highlights among the events that happen at FORE.

Great College and amazing experience.

Infrastructure: The college provides active Wi-Fi service and has great labs with a printing station at convenience. The medical team is very active, and the canteen is clean and hygienic. Sports and other related competitions are given optimum facilities. The infrastructure is great, and the college is fully air-conditioned for the apt temperature.
Faculty: The professors are well-learned and have experience with IIMs and other major B-Schools as well.

It is a decent college. I suggest students make their decisions wisely.
Placements: Right now college summer and final placements are going on very fast as compared to the market and other colleges. The average salary package offered is 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Dell, Berger Paints, Asian Paints, etc., visit the college for placements. Various roles like finance, marketing, HR, data analytics, etc., are offered to students.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are well-furnished. The library has a lot of reading materials but in acres its campus life is small. The hostel is also okay. I know little about it but there are no strict restrictions. The food is supplied by vendors but it is good if students live near the hostel for making connections.
Faculty: Faculty members are well qualified. The course curriculum is relevant. Exams are hectic due to mid-term and end-term of 100 marks each with the trimester system. The pass percentage is 40 which is combined with overall student performance like mid and end-term exams, CP, assignments, presentations, etc.
Other: I chose PGDM because of my interest and finance background. There are a lot of committees that are very active. It hosts some fest.

Fore - cares about its student's minds, health, and money.
Placements: Students become eligible for campus placements from the 4th term onwards. Right now as the placement season is still going on we don't have the details yet, once it is over, we will get the complete details. After completing the degree, I plan to join the corporate world.
Infrastructure: Lots of books and journals are provided in the library. Classrooms are well-furnished with smart boards.
Faculty: All the faculty members are exceptionally well qualified. There are more than 500 faculty members in the entire college. Faculty members make sure to provide you with the easiest and best way to make you understand the subject of their domain. We can interact with the teachers at any time. You can ask any questions, and they are always ready to give you the answers. If you are shy to ask in class, then you can go to their cabins and ask them.
Other: The annual fest named Genisys is conducted in the month of November. There are a lot of clubs run by students that help students learn about finance, HR, operations, etc.

There are many faculties who always support in everything.
Placements: The college offers placement in the final year, where there are many government companies that came with 3 to 4 LPA packages and picked students according to their knowledge. There are approx. 70 percent of students who get placed; the rest try to find jobs from outside of college. The top role offered is junior engineer.
Infrastructure: The social life at FORE School of Management is highly dynamic, as students are always taking part in either industrial seminars, cultural events, sports events, etc. The institute also has more than 23 student committees that help in building strong leadership skills.
Faculty: There is 100+ faculty and there are many lab assistants also, which help us to enjoy our college life. The first-year exam is administered during the semester gap. The faculty of mechanical are very arrogant and not able to take a stance for their students. The faculty I like most is also from the mechanical lecturers and my sports coach; he is fabulous but he retired as my college got over.
