Having known some students of both these colleges, I can say that both the colleges are really good in terms of infrastructure, culture, and faculties. There are of course some differences too and for that let me share with you a few details.

K J Somaiya has better infrastructure and the campus is located at the heart of the city. SIMSREE doesn't have such a big infrastructure.
SIMSREE has a better ROI than K J Somaiya.
Placement usually depends on your profile and how you perform in your management education & certainly performance in interviews.
Professors, peers both are good in both colleges.
At SIMSREE, the finance course is much better as there are several guest lecturers visiting from JBIMS.
Both SIMSREE and K J Somaiya’s program in MMS is Mumbai University affiliated. Its degree is acceptable for several government jobs as well.

Categories	MMS at SIMSREE	MMS at K J Somaiya
Course Fee	1.36 lakh	3.24 lakh
Highest CTC	20 LPA	-
Average CTC	12 LPA	8-9 LPA
Recruiting Companies	American Express, Barclays, ITC, KPMG, etc.	Amazon, HUL, Deutsche Bank, Wipro, etc.

It must be noted that PGDBM is not offered at SIMSREE rather the institute also offers MMS in affiliation with Mumbai University.

Also, while choosing between MMS at Sydenham and K J Somaiya, it is suggested that you talk to alumni of both colleges, which would definitely give you a clear idea.

What is the scope of an MS in management studies from DOMS IIT Madras?

IIT Madras is a premiere Engineering college and all the courses are of premium quality and taught by world-class faculty. Talking specifically about DoMS, it has some of the oldest and most highly experienced faculty who are very cooperative and guide the students throughout their journey.

IIT Madras faculty are experts in their area of specialization mainly because my cousin was an M S - Mech student, and had to audit classes, with the Consent Of Teachers in the Management Studies department. She was fortunate enough to avail the opportunity to teach in DoMS. She was impressed by the faculty of the department and shared her wonderful experience.

Not only in academics but the department is also known for its valuable research work done by MS students. Many students even opt for Ph.D. after completing their MS. IIT Madras’ Central Library is no joke given the huge variety of books and unique research materials. It runs 24/7 and one can even photocopy necessary material for research purposes.

Without further hesitation, go for MS at DoMS IIT Madras and you will realize how wonderful a decision it was.

Which is a better option in Jain University in Bangalore: MBA or MMS?

Jain University in Bangalore offers both MBA (Master of Business Administration) and MMS (Master of Management Studies) programs. Both of these programs have their own unique features and benefits, and the choice between the two ultimately depends on your individual goals and preferences. Here are some key differences between the two programs to help you make an informed decision:

MBA Program:

MBA is a postgraduate degree program that typically focuses on developing general management skills, with a broad curriculum that covers a wide range of business functions such as finance, marketing, operations, and human resources.
MBA programs are designed for students who have some work experience and are looking to advance their careers or transition into management roles.
MBA programs often offer more flexibility in terms of course offerings, allowing students to tailor their studies to their specific interests and career goals.
Jain University's MBA program is accredited by the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) and offers a range of specializations such as Finance, Marketing, HRM, Operations, Entrepreneurship, and Business Analytics.

MMS Program:

MMS is also a postgraduate degree program, but it is more specialized and focuses specifically on management studies, with a curriculum that is typically more focused on business strategy, organizational behavior, and leadership.
MMS programs are designed for students who want to gain a deeper understanding of management principles and practices and are looking to transition into management roles.
MMS programs often have a more structured curriculum and may not offer as much flexibility in terms of course offerings.
Jain University's MMS program is affiliated with Bangalore University and offers specializations in Marketing, Finance, and Human Resource Management.

When considering which program to choose, you should take into account your personal interests, career goals, and the type of knowledge and skills you want to gain. Some factors to consider include:

Specialization: If you have a specific area of interest within management, you may want to consider an MBA program that offers a specialization in that area. Alternatively, if you want a more general overview of management principles, an MMS program may be more suitable.
Work Experience: MBA programs typically require some work experience, whereas MMS programs may be more suitable for students who are just starting their careers.
Course Structure: MBA programs tend to offer more flexibility and course options, while MMS programs may have a more structured curriculum.

Both MBA and MMS programs at Jain University are well-regarded and offer excellent opportunities for professional and personal growth. It's important to consider your own goals and preferences when deciding which program is right for you.
