Final Placements MBA-MS 2007

MBA-MS Programme

The MBA (MS) course has proved to be a great success for Faculty of Management Studies as it has not only received great accolades from the industry but also has been a watershed in the lives of the current students. The placement for MBA (MS) has exceeded expectations. As compared to last year’s placements, there has been a significant increase in the number and variety of companies which have offered exciting job profiles and salaries to the students in the current year. Many students could take their pick from more than two offers at hand. The pedagogical inputs that are unique to this programme, combined with the brightness of the batch enrolled in the programme have brought us excellent feedback from the industry. We at FMS intend to continue with our efforts and the industry can look forward to continually improving business leaders in the service sector from FMS in the coming years.” says Dr. Mala Sinha, Placement Advisor of MBA (MS) Programme.
