One of the popular post on this blog has been the The top 25 Business Schools in India, which I had published back in 2007. As the list has been outdated now, I thought it would be a good time to publish the Top B-School & Professional Colleges in India for 2009.
Unlike the previous list which was released by Outlook, this is a more comprehensive list released by Research organization C fore (Centre for Forecasting & Research). The list is based on 163 B-schools that participated in the survey.
Interesting aspect about this survey is that the data is based primarily on objective data. The survey is also transparent as participants have access to the data of their competitors after the findings are published.
The survey ranks two year full time programmes offered by B-schools in India based on following parameters:
- Intellectual capital
- Placement performance
- Infrastructure and facilities
- Industry interface.
- International Linkages
These parameters were further divided to obtain granular scores for rankings. You can check out the complete methodology and details here.
It is interesting to see that with the downturn looming large many of the Business Schools were not able to achieve 100% placements and the average salaries compared to previous years dropped by more than 30%.
The downturn took a toll on the Business Schools itself.
- In 88% of the B-schools surveyed, not a single faculty member was sent to participate in an international conference.
- In 68% of the schools, the faculty development expenditure did not exceed 10 lakh rupees.
- In 91% of the schools surveyed, not a single paper has been published in any international journal by their permanent faculty in the last academic year.
