Hey junta...

From few threads i understand that the course for MBA in Bits gives more stress to the IT industries and also the companies that have come are only from IT background. I wanna move forward only in the manufacturing sector as i have got 2yrs of work experience in this field. I wanna specialize in Operations management but i find that the electives that are given for us doesn't throw much light on the operations part...

Am more confused now. will this college be a best choice or should i wait for something else. Also this is the best time to study as the markets will definitely pick in next 2 years and there will be a demand for the MBAs.

One more doubt is whether this course has been certified and approved by AICTE according to the norms. All our efforts shouldn't go waste if its not been approved.. The recent posts has really confused me a lot..

PLS HELP NEEDED:helpsmi lie:

Hello everyone, I am a BITS PILANI MBA 2nd batch passout.


my apologies for the delayed reply, I have got an email from someone about bits and there are some discussions going on in this forum.. I rarely used to check bits360 forums which is inactive coming to mba discussions. Being an insider what as an insider, bits pilani had an mba in the 70's then it transitioned into MMS ( but you cannot call that an mba ). It was successful but only in 2006 bits put up the idea of starting an MBA , hence MMS had to make way for it.

It is still in its very early stages and later on practice school program was introduced, which may provide the opportunities to get in companies, but I cannot say how fruitful it will be.Most of the faculty are from M.Sc (Tech) finance, the same people which take up for BITS ug/dual students.
There isn't much to talk about faculty, the most important aspect is how ( well did ) / ( will ) the companies welcome BITS MBA ?

The first batch people were well placed, there were only 20 odd people, you can say they had some rub of the green and the companies took them on BITS technical reputation and some faith on BITS and there wasn't recession and giving a job to bits mba wasn't a risk for the industry then.

How many BITS MBA people are in the INDUSTRY ?

The first batch 20,
The second batch 30 odd,

The second batch are placements took a hit due to the R word, but even in recession we expected decent companies to hire us which wasn't to be.
should BITS have taken more care about us ?
can't BITS PILANI get average pays with it reputation ?

Now the industry doesn't look at BITS PILANI brand and take mba students in.
BITS is known for its technical excellence, how good is it in management ? , BITS doesn't have the answer and mere 20 good placements doesn't back it up. Infact the batch 2 should tell them the story.

I do not think the industry will take the risk with bits having 3 batches passed out ( with respect to the current aspirants ) . There are numerous colleges in INDIA with over 10 years of establishment.
Why would they come to BITS pilani.

And yes numerous companies come to bits every year, but no one asked the question how many companies come looking for a mba degree holder.
10-20 companies would come to any good mba college in INDIA and it would be enough to get you a job.

what is the use if 200 companies come to bits pilani and they are not looking to hire mere 30 odd MBA students.

and I found an interesting stat going though the pages, I've noticed even 92 marks (no offence ) fetched the person a shortlist. I will keep it with me as you know what I think.

I hope I have answered most important aspects.

If anyone asks me for a suggestion, I would advice them to look for a better MBA and it really won't hinder you if a year is spent for it.
2 years of job has a clear edge over bits mba and I presume you won't want to risk your carreer hoping for bits to do well.

The ball is in your court now.

My heartiest wishes to everyone for their future,
bye
