How good is KJ Somaiya for MBA in Finance and International Business?
Posted On - Sep 4, 2020To begin with, there is no such thing as a "flagship" in college, so you may not have heard anything about going to KJ Somaiya for marketing or that it is best for HR or Finance. All programs, specialized or super-specialized, are treated equally, and top-tier faculty are available for all courses.
There is almost nothing significant on which any of the programs can be graded. It all comes down to personal preference. If you want to work in International Business (finance or marketing), go for it; if you want to learn everything there is to know about finance, financial services are the way to go. In any case, you won't be short on opportunities.
It must be noted that Finance is a specialization in KJ Somaiya whereas, International Business (IB) is a course. However, the institute has impressive academics and placement records for both domains.
