MICA Ahmedabad: Campus, Placements, Hostel Life, Fees, Courses, And More | Know Your Campus

What makes MICA special? Is it the student diversity? Is it the giants like Amazon, P&G, HUL, that come here for placements? Is it the specialised courses that are unique to MICA? Whatever it is, you’ve probably heard of this lively campus. From its lush campus filled with open fields for sports, to its very quirky campus spots that have a personality of their own, we got a chance to visit MICA. With an average salary package of 12.8 L.P.A, and alumni holding top positions in companies like P&G, Amazon, Facebook, and more, this is certainly a b-school to look out for.

How To Be A Master Of Your Time At A B-School

Being an engineering student who was preparing for entrance exams, the most important thing that I heard about the MBA is Time Management. However, it is not as easy as it sounds. It’s a whole different ball game in the MBA.

Why I Chose IIM - A Over IIM - B And C - Aayush Gupta, IIM Ahmedabad

Imagine getting calls from IIM A, IIM B and IIM C. Wait, how? And what next? Well, if you’re lucky enough to get shortlisted for what are probably the top 3 b-schools in India, you have to prepare for the GD-PI rounds next. So how to prepare in such a way that you manage to crack all three b-schools? While a lot depends on your interviewers, you can also take control of some aspects of the GD-PI process and prepare accordingly. What are we talking about? Well, for starters, we’re referring to customising your GD-PI strategy based on the b-schools you’re interviewing for. But in order to do this, you need to know what each b-school expects from students during the interview process, right? Well, meet Aayush Gupta, a BMS student from the Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies (DU), Ex Intern at Deloitte and currently set to intern at Strategy &, PwC's consulting arm. Aayush, currently an IIM A student, was lucky enough to be shortlisted for IIM A, IIM B and IIM C. What’s more, he got admission to all 3 b-schools too! Find out how Aayush zeroed in on a b-school, and how he prepared for IIM A, IIM B, IIM C interviews in this video.

No SC/ST Faculty in IIM A, B, C

No SC/ST Faculty in IIM A, B, C

Remember the stories of Ramayana and Mahabharata? There was always a mention of the sacred guru-shishya (teacher-student) bond. Unfortunately, in those times, the transaction of knowledge was only reserved for people of a certain class and caste. Thankfully, we don’t live in that kind of world anymore. Or do we? While, the number of ST, SC and OBC students is slowly rising in institutes of higher education, the case is not the same for faculty and scholars. In a working paper co-written by Siddharth Joshi (Doctoral Student, IIM B) and Deepak Malghan (Associate Professor, IIM B) titled - Missing Scholars: Social Exclusion at the Indian Institutes of Management, it was found out that, “As of January 2018, of the 642 faculty members across the 13 IIMs, 4 were from the Scheduled Caste (SC) and 1 from the Schedule Tribe (ST) categories.” This report comes as a shock since SCs/STs represent more than a quarter of the country’s population!
