Outcomes Are Self‑Driven
The 2025 outlook shows graduates doubling down on current‑employer promotions, career transitions, or entrepreneurship. If you’re expecting a traditional placement season with mass recruiter lists, this programme plays differently.
The verdict
Worth considering
It’s a smart pick if you’re already working in Mumbai, can self‑fund ₹12L, and want a weekend‑only format at a NIRF‑ranked B‑school. Skip it if you need hostel accommodation, scholarship aid, or a structured campus placement process.
