Review of Indian Institute of Social Welfare and Business Management.
Placements: Every year, more than 90% of our students are placed. The highest salary package offered was 14 LPA, the average salary package offered was 7 LPA – 8 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies like ITC, Aditya Birla, ICICI Bank, Federal Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Bandhan Bank, Flipkart, and Amazon visited our campus. Every year, almost 100% of students get internship chances in companies like ITC, Ambuja cement, E&Y, and CK Birla Hospital. Top roles offered are deputy manager, logistics in-charge, patient care coordinator, and floor manager.
Infrastructure: In our college, classrooms are well ventilated with a full air-conditioning system. Wi-Fi and lift facilities are available on campus. The campus is neat and clean. Gym facilities are available for boys. Hostel facilities are available for both boys and girls. The hostel is just beside the campus. The food served is decent. There are in-house gaming doctor facilities available on campus.
Faculty: It is a government undertaking college. All faculty members are well qualified and very knowledgeable. They are very helpful and their teaching skills are good. The course curriculum is decent. The course teaches you how to think and what to think. It increases your thinking ability and makes you more knowledgeable. Continuous revision and regular study are very important to pass the exam. More than 90% of students pass every year.
Other: I chose this course because I wanted to get a job at that time. An MBA was the only thing that could get you a decent job. The best thing about our course is that it is industry-related so you will not face any problems during placements. More faculty members are needed for better teaching. There are cells that organise cultural programs every year, like quiz programs, photography competitions, etc. Scholarships which are mainly provided by the state government are also available. Each department organises several events every year. The hospital management department organises a world health day program.
