Hi Parsannajeet
I m neither an alumn of the school nor the adcom, but as far as i knw the stats that you are requesting wont be available as its the first or may be the second batch.
However IIM Udaipur has mentioned that IIM Udaipur will place all the candidates.

As far as Fees is concerned it is around 25lakhs...

Consider kudos if my post helps!!!!

Archit

@ Parsannajeet and Archit,
1) The application round will commence from September 2013. It started in the same month for the first batch also.

2) We do not have placement figures as of now. The most i can give you is about the class profile and the internship companies:

Class profile consists of people from Automotive, Electrical/Electronics,Infrastructure, Retail, Consulting, IT, Apparel, Aerospace, R&D and Telecom.

Companies the students are currently interning in are: Siemens, Jabong, Cargill, Cummins, Johnson Controls, J.C Bamford, Bharti Walmart, Hyundai, Raymond Apparel and Astra Zeneca.

3) Course fee will sum upto 19-20 Lakhs; Not 25 Lakhs

Can you post the GMAT score for the present class

Archit

Hi Archit,

Average GMAT score for current batch is 650. Average work experience is 4-4.5 years.

Hope this information will be helpful to you.

Hi

Is the application for the next cycle started.
Can you pls comment something on the industry response , I know its difficult but what is the college expecting.

Archit

As per your PGP Placement report max placement offer was close to 7 lac annum....I think the placement offer for the Dual Degree prog, will also hover around the same. Please share your insights. Also there is a huge difference in the fee structure of both the courses, Hence the ROI of the Dual degree is far less than PGP.

Archit

Hi Archit,

"As per your PGP Placement report max placement offer was close to 7 lac annum". This statement is not correct. Please share basis of this statement. Placement report can be downloaded from institutes website. IIM Udaipur follows IPRS standards. Please check your facts again.

Hi

I have audited report from IIMU's website. I downloaded it from website itself. Please correct me if i am wrong.

Archit

Kindly visit following link:
https://www.iimu.ac.in/corporate/final-placement-report/

Average package is much more than 7 lac (Highest according to your statement).

The institute will target companies offering packages CTC between 9-14 LPA considering the work experience the current students have.

And yes, the 2nd cycle has already started.

Best of Luck

Hi,

Since this MBA is in Supply Chain Management so does it require to have SCM experience. I mean I have 5.5 years of work experience in IT then how MBA in SCM going to help me or I just need to justify before interview panel that SCM is the degree I am looking for.

regards,
Vikas

Hi Vikas,

Experience is one of the criteria for admission. It is not a requirement. But yes, SCM work experience candidate will always have an advantage over others. In current batch also there are students from various fields i.e. IT, Retail, Telecom, Power, Automobiles, etc.

then I need to justify in my interviews why I want to do MBA in SCM.right ??
