Fintech and Finance also saw a lot of companies coming in with job offers for students. Companies like Bosch, Razorpay, Virtusa, Juspay, Mobikwik, Freecharge, IndiaMart from the Fintech industry offered both domestic and international offers to students. In finance, students found varied roles in big companies like BMW Finance, HDFC, ICRA, ICICI, IndusInd, and Axis Bank.
So, what exactly could be the reason behind this enormous success of a new B-school?
The CEO of Master’s Union Rupesh Bisht credits the success to the ‘quality of the cohort, the tech-focused curriculum, deep industry immersion and practitioner-led classes that helped students achieve placement success at par with the old IIMs.’
The inaugural cohort of 2021 represents diversity in terms of academic training, professional experience, age, gender, geographies, and even growth aspirations. It's not a very CA or engineering-heavy cohort, which is the case of many B-schools in India. Rather it consists of lawyers and humanities students in abundance coming in from elite institutions and with relevant work experience in companies like Goldman Sachs, KPMG, EY, Amazon etc. The average age of the cohort members is 25.7 years. Its youngest and oldest members are 21 and 39 years old, respectively.
Masters’ Union believes in imparting education to students from industry professionals, CXOs, MDs, and eminent public leaders, and even Member of Parliaments, which makes the learning pedagogy unique for the B-school. Along with regular academic interactions, it provided students with an 8-week long industry immersion programme under which students get access to a range of outcome-focused engagements with eminent corporate entities. As part of the programme, students of Masters’ Union received 80 internship opportunities from 40 companies for the first batch, with the highest stipend being Rs. 3.75 lakhs.
