KJ Somaiya is one of the best institutes for BMM and PGDM. It offers a good chance to its entire student in the BMM course.

One of the many advantages of studying BMM in KJ Somaiya is the extra advantage you will get during placement. The college offers placement facilities for BMM students in addition to that they have an internal quota for PGDM students. This has been considered merit by many of its students. 

Categories BMM at KJ Somaiya
Course Fee INR 70,785
Course Duration 3 years
Highest CTC 12 LPA
Average CTC 8 LPA
Recruiting Companies NDTV, The Times of India, etc.

So going for the BMM course from KJ Somaiya is definitely recommendable and good for the student.

Some of my friends studied BMM at KJ Somaiya. According to them, it was not something that they expected, rather the course overall was disappointing. Here are some of the reasons why they felt that way.

  • The coordinator for the BMM course is Vinay Nandy and he has quite a reputation in front of the students. 
  • He is known to practice favoring his selected students. 
  • He also cut off portions from the industrial visit fees. 
  • He has a degree of Ph.D. in archaeology. 
  • He doesn’t also teach that well and during the exam, he throws difficult questions in the paper. 
  • He says he doesn’t believe in spoon-feeding thus he doesn’t teach mostly. 
  • He has some strong connections with the nearby industry which benefits the students sometimes. 
  • Even the assistant professor can teach better than him from psychology to mass communications and advertising. 

Joining KJ Somaiya hasn’t been beneficial for them. They regret their decision and doubted themselves as students. Some consider choosing KJ Somaiya College of arts and commerce but for BMM it is the worst decision in their academic career.

I have a few friends from KJ Somaiya College of Arts and Commerce, so I can give you some insight into their BMS course. 

KJ Somiya is not a good option if you really want to pursue BMS for knowledge and not just for the sake of a degree. The teaching experience for BMS at KJ Somiya will not be satisfactory. 

If you prefer knowledge over a degree, then you should go to some other better colleges such as MCC in Mulund. But, if you just want a degree in BMS then you can opt for KJ Somaiya. KJ Somaiya has a huge campus. This is advantageous if you want to bunk lectures and have fun sometimes.
