Hi Puys!


Can someone inform me about suitable MBA Colleges in India for Brand Management/Marketing Communications/Advertising related courses? Apart from MICA, what other colleges offer good courses + decent placements. How good is SIMC Pune? Any other colleges that are relevant and I should apply to?

I am interested in MBA but interested in the above specializations only.

Kindly throw some light anyone!!!

MICA is def one of the best choice.

Apart from MICA, you could opt for Top B-Schools which are known for Marketing.

Some of the options could be -->

Apart from IIM's, it could be FMS , S.P.JAIN Mumbai , MDI , SIBM, SCMHRD , XLRI , NMIMS , IMT G , etc followed by others..
@rahul_307 There is XIMC (Xavier Institute of Communications), DSC (Delhi School of Communication) & IIMC (Indian Institute of Mass Communication) also. But I don't know further details about it, how good it is etc. I couldn't find an active thread also. For XIMC I think its a separate test XIC. You can check last years thread http://www.pagalguy.com/forums/prep-resources/xic-entrance-exam-prepration-t-51542/p-1965026?page=49

Maybe you can do a google search and read through some forums and reviews, and try finding some senior who you can speak to from all the 3 institutes to know further.
can ny1 enlist
best B school offering Petroleum or Oil and Gas Management.

also, the one's offering operations/supply chain management.
@fifi School of petroleum management is one of the renowned institutes for this domain. Please visit the mentioned link for further information http://www.spm.pdpu.ac.in/index.asp. All the best :)
@fifi For Petroleum or Oil & Gas Management you can check out the following:

1. RGIPT, Rae Bareli (MBA at Noida campus) - http://www.rgipt.ac.in/
2. UPES, Dehradun - http://www.upes.ac.in/
3. School of Petroleum Management, Gandhinagar (PDPU) - http://www.spm.pdpu.ac.in/

For further specific queries about each you can ask at the relevant threads in PG:
1. RGIPT, Rae Bareli (MBA at Noida campus) - Thread not yet started I think!
2. UPES, Dehradun - http://www.pagalguy.com/discussions/upes-mba-2013-25087974/3609277

For Operations/SCM, you can look out for IIM-B, NITIE, IITs, SIOM etc.
Guys I want to improve my extra curricular part of my resume. It is blank. Give me some suggestions to get some certifications within 2-3 months.Anything will help. Thankyou :)

What was the cut off of MDI last year??

@rema0609
Last call was given at 94.8x%le..
Converts would be much higher..
@ankushfaltu Firstly this is not the right thread to ask. Better check at http://www.pagalguy.com/discussions/certifications-for-profile-building-25015990/507186

Secondly, just doing SOME certification for the sake of filling up that extra-curricular section is not going to help. Look for your interest area, intended specialization etc. and consider something to do.

Thirdly certifications are NOT extra-curricular but co-curricular activities!! So you might want to consider doing something else also for "extra curricular".
