Review Regarding the MBA Agribusiness Program.
Placements: MBA Agribusiness Management is a residential program spanning four semesters, encompassing various components like field segments, live projects, and summer internships. The batch strength is around 78 students, including foreign students. 100% of the students get opportunities for the summer internship program. Top recruiting companies include UPL, Bayer, Adani, Crystal, Nuziveedu Seeds, VNR, PAN Seeds, HDFC, ICICI, Bandhan Bank, and some microfinance companies. For SIP, the projects are mainly related to market research, digital marketing, agri-input sales, procurement, and the supply chain. Every individual gets placed, as 100% placement is guaranteed and achieved each year.
Infrastructure: KIIT is renowned for its lush greenery. The library, equipped with a variety of books necessary for the management course, is a notable feature. Wi-Fi is available in both the campus and hostel, with AC classrooms, a canteen offering a variety of snacks, a gym, and a swimming pool for extracurricular activities. The hostel, which is non-AC by default, provides an option for those who prefer AC. Furnished rooms with chairs and tables and shared common washrooms are provided. The college's committed mess allows students to suggest menu changes, with food selections typically rotating every 3–4 months for a delightful dining experience.
Faculty: The MBA (ABM) program, a fully residential course spanning four semesters, includes various internship components such as field segments, live projects, and a summer internship program. Through this learning process, students can identify gaps found during internships and implement their classroom learning into hands-on field experience.
Other: I chose the MBA in Agribusiness Management as I did my graduation in agriculture and was fascinated by working in the corporate world. Additionally, I did not want to pursue a Masters in research. Opting for an MBA in ABM allowed me to explore different sectors based on my areas of interest.

Infrastructure: Every student is required to stay in the hostel as part of the residential program. During my stay, I was assigned a double occupancy room that, although lacking air conditioning, provided a comfortable and roomy environment. Despite its modest size, the room was equipped with essential amenities such as a cupboard and study table. The shared washrooms were conveniently located, and Wi-Fi access was available on each floor. In my experience, the food here is comparatively better, with four meals provided. The classrooms are spacious and well-equipped with digital boards and AC. The campus itself is beautiful and lush, with each campus having its own cafeteria and top-notch sports facilities.
Faculty: Our faculty stands out due to their distinguished academic backgrounds, as many of them are alumni of prestigious institutions such as IIMs, IRMA, and IIT. Not only are our teachers knowledgeable, but they also make sure to stay updated with industry trends, ensuring that our education remains relevant and cutting-edge. Additionally, they frequently enhance the learning experience by inviting industry experts to deliver guest lectures. Moreover, our faculty provides comprehensive guidance on an individual basis. The course curriculum combines general MBA subjects with specialized areas like supply chain, agri input marketing, and agri finance. It emphasizes class participation, case studies, and practical assignments. From the first semester onwards, students receive placement training, including group discussion sessions.
