Hello,

In the current scenario logistics and SCM are booming areas.  Job opportunities in the related area are increasing every day. I can suggest you some institutes where you can study MBA in Logistics and supply chain management. My friends and cousins are either studying there or have studied. To join here you have to clear any management level entrance test or admission seeking institutes test like LPUNEST.

Amity University - Amity has a campus in Bangalore also but I am told that it is not very promising. Although they are providing good placement for their students there are many areas where they need to improve. So please make the choice carefully and cautiously. Highest package in the recent year was 14 LPA.

Lovely Professional University - One of my friends is passed out from here in 2016, now he is working with an MNC as a state head of their sales. Their last year placement also good, the highest package was 21 LPA.  Recently Amazon hired few students at a  package of 28 LPA.

Manipal Academy of Higher Education- This institute is coming under Manipal University. Highest package was 18 LPA.

Symbiosis- Symbiosis Institute of the premier institute for MBA. Highest salary package in the recent year was 24 LPA.

Presidency- This is a top university from Bangalore. Their MBA programme is very famous, especially the city like Bangalore, getting a job is an easy task. Because it's an IT hub.

Before joining into any institute you must have to check the following parameters, Parameters are 1)Placement 2)Faculty and 3)Infrastructure.

Hope this information will help you. Best wishes.

Good Luck!

Hi Aspirant,

Can you please clear which college are you specifically asking about. Only then, you'll be able to get a satisfactory answer to your query.

However,as it is customary that most B-Schools of the country accept CAT scores,thus you should definitely apply for it.

However, there are many other different exams in which you can appear.It totally depends on the college you're asking about that which entrance exam it accepts.

Hope this helps.
