We, the students conducted a lot of events there. Most of the events were intercollege events. Which gave a lot of exposure to exchange the knowledge. If I talk about the location, it is in a residential area. So it could be better from my point of view. Otherwise it is ok.

No college don't have all the necessary infrastructure,facilities & equipment. In classroom we have smart boards, in library we have almost all the books , WI-FI is there but not working properly , Hostel food is on average. Living spaces is clean but food is hygienic but not good in taste
I am doing PGDM from the college. the quality of teaching is on average as some of the teachers are very good and some of the teachers don't know how to teach if you ask doubt they will shout at you. curriculum is updated . but they only focus on theoretical not on practical
Placement is on average as only startup company will come to the campus no good company is came till now. Mostly sales company is there for the placement no other streams company is coming for the placement.
it is not value for money. the college will tell you that they will provide certifications and some extra course but they are not doing anything.
Campus life is average as full day classes only 30 minutes lunch timing to focus on theoretical knowledge not on practical knowledge . location is good and yes it is safe . yes it can handle emergency.
It has all necessary infrastructure and equipments. You get wifi projector charging slots in every classroom. You get Pool table, Table tennis in the cafeteria so you can enjoy your food with some games. The food is delicious at very reasonable price.
The curriculum is regularly updated, and the teaching staff have tremendous experience in the industry as well as in teaching. They use Power point presentation and cases for solving the queries of the students.
Average placement of the last year was around 7.5 lakh which is pretty good. The placement committee works very hard for both summer internship as well as final placement. They keep mailing about all the companies and their requirements. They also takes Quant and DI test in between the semester for helping students achieve their goals.
You get god level professors nice average placement and good ambiance what else you need. Its definately value for money.
It is located in very peaceful area you have disturbance during your lectures and the college also ensures students safety.
If you're interested in studying while enjoying the life too this is a good option for you.
The college has a good building of five floors. Facilities are good and most of the needy equipment are provided to the students. But it also needs improvement in many of the points which can be better than the current situation.
I was studying PGDM in batch 2018-2020 batch and the quality of teaching was good. It was possible because of the experience of the faculty members in teaching life or industrial life. Most of the syllabus is updated with time but some of the faculty members are using data from too long which is irrelevant to the current situation. Not only study but the mandatory internship of a minimum of 8 weeks during the course is good learning for the students.
Quality of placement is a good placement cell and the supportive members of the placement team. Almost 60% of students got their placements before corona lockdown. Others are struggling to make it. A major number of profiles are from the sales sector. Average salary is between 4 lacs to 6 lacs. The placement process is sometimes easy and sometimes tough for many of us because it includes walk in interviews too.
If you are getting a good placement and you are carrying good learning with you while leaving this place, that is your value for money. But currently, I am not satisfied with my experience so I can't give it a 5-star rating but they deserve at least 3 stars out of 5.
The best thing about this campus is the ragging free campus. Students can enjoy here each and everything of the college life.
The college needs some improvement in the management side because while my two years of experience on the campus we feel sometimes the decisions are just taken without considering all sides and effects of those. They need more involvement of the students while making any decision.
Dear Aspirant,
Comparing colleges is always a tricky affair and we can only go by general guidelines and since both don’t figure in the National Institute of Ranking Framework (NIRF), we will not be able to qualify one is better than the other.
When looking at the syllabus of each in the MBA Finance programs, it is very obvious that Chitkara’s Finance syllabus is much more progressive in terms of industry requirements of today and in your second year you can actually opt for specialization in Investment Banking, Corporate Finance & Wealth Management. While Fostiima’s program covers a wide range of topics and tends to give you a look and feel of a company’s operative elements including finance. Since they have subjects like HR & Marketing etc. Another point is Chitkara has 8 semesters in comparison to Fostiima’s 6 semesters, which means the intensity is much higher in Chitkara from a program point of view.
We suggest you take a very close look at both the syllabus and compare it with what we have said and then take a decision. Don’t forget this is your first management decision.
Good Luck
