The best of both worlds’- That was life at Amrita for me. I was lucky enough to be a part of the MBA-MS Program that Amrita offered in collaboration with SUNY, Buffalo. Two high valued professional courses in a span of 2 years and from esteemed universities- It was an opportunity I did not want to miss. The MBA course gave me an understanding of how the business world works. The challenges we faced, kept us on our toes, constantly pushing us to give our best shot! It was a synergy between rich experiential learning and deep rooted values that our faculty imparted in us. The MS course was all about strategy and business analytics. The exposure we got at UB was quite a unique one in terms of the curriculum and the teaching pedagogy. I feel fortunate to have experienced student life at both the campuses. The faculty of the program were SME’s from their fields which was indeed the main reason we had a great learning at Amrita. Looking back, my journey at Amrita was such an exuberant ride. The opportunities I got, paved my path from Can I? to I CAN! The 2 years here, I made some wonderful friends and mentors and carved some beautiful memories which will remain etched in my heart for a life time!
I have nothing but words of profound gratitude for my alma mater, Department of Management, Bengaluru. Life and learning experiences at ASB have made me so much wiser, stronger and smarter. Career took off the moment I landed at ASB and I have never had to look back since then. Great faculty, great facilities, great placements! Just was the perfect place for me to live my dreams,, thank you ASB!! Discovered that the hard skills learnt at college are the most sought-after at my workplace now. Thanks to my mentors, I transformed from an individual who spoke and wrote a great deal, to a prospective leader who communicates powerfully with fewer words. Professors inculcated in me the value of being precise and concise. All this plus, a ton of nostalgic memories to cherish lifelong. Couldn’t ask for more, could I?!
Amrita is not just a campus but a family with energy and life all over. Students are always in constant pursuit of knowledge. When two renowned universities (Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham & SUNY, Buffalo) collaborate to offer two high valued programs in a span of two years with all the necessary exposures, will be an opportunity which nobody wants to miss. Amrita gave not just the management side knowledge but it also taught us how to live a life of values. When MBA taught us how the business world is and its techniques, MS helped us in building strategies in business to succeed. The main attraction of the whole course is the techno-functional exposure to the world of data. How to use the analytical techniques to understand what the data is telling us and deriving insights to help the business to hit the mark. The faculties here are the best in their fields and that’s the main reason why we don’t have a doubt on the quality of learning which we get. The two years here have given me some great mentors and wonderful friends who are still a part of my mainstream life. There is a great saying by Benjamin Franklin, “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” Yes here we are involved and so the learning stays with us. In a nutshell Amrita gives you bliss full Life and Learning.
When the world and the complexities around you are evolving, it is critical for every manager to be adept to the changing scenarios. Here at Department of Management, we students are honed with the best of resources catering to the needs of our all-round development. The MBA program at ASB, reinforces the spirit of creative action in its students enabling them to push the boundaries of what is considered possible. The amount of industry exposure that we are subject to, enables us to augment our problem solving and analytical skills which are key to embarking successful careers in industries and markets. The peer and faculty relationships that I have developed over the course of time, is something that I would cherish throughout my life.
The reason I got placed in Bridgei2i (Fastest Growing Analytics Company in India) is due to the academic syllabus and extracurricular activities in the Analytics field by Department of Management. ASB’s Analytics Program consists of not just Analytics techniques and tools but also it integrates Marketing, Finance, Supply Chain and HR with Analytics this increase the scope in the analytics field. Additionally, Analytics club helped me to get more industry knowledge. MS boosted all these with international exposure and techniques.
It gives me immense pleasure to call myself an alumnus of Department of Management Bangalore and State University of New York at Buffalo. The best part of being a student in this university is getting an international exposure by visit to University at Buffalo. In the world of globalisation, the degree of MBA-MS gives us a competitive advantage and MS degree in Business Analytics and Systems helps us to understand the dynamics of today’s business world. MBA-MS has the right mix of curriculum for career enhancement. As Data Analytics is the new trend in the business world and provides lot of opportunities, I was privileged to learn this course in my MBA program. A degree in MBA-MS is one of the best opportunities that a student can get and utilize to shape his/her career and be ahead of others in this competitive world and this institution is the best platform for providing that opportunity.
The unique combination of MS from SUNY Buffalo and an MBA from Amrita University helps the students understand the principles of Management, Analytics, and Strategy in a current and evolving business environment. The course exposes us to a completely new style of pedagogy. Facilities from SUNY Buffalo really help and shape the students to give a new outlook on how to approach a Business problem and getting a solution for it. Having worked in the IT industry for 3years before joining the course, this program really helped me to Think, Analyze and Apply the principles from a business perspective.
Life at Amrita can’t be expressed simply in words. The opportunity to learn is so vast. The unique programs that are offered here help the students to explore more, learn new things, and gain practical experience in the corporate world with the great support of faculty members. The strong alumni support helps the students at ASB to grab new opportunities. In short, ASB is a place that produces well-disciplined and qualified students.

ASB has created a niche for itself and is constantly growing. It has produces successful alumni and is constantly striving towards the success of its students.
Being an Amritian since 2014, the experience as a student has taught me various subjects which cannot be learned just from text books or theoretical chapters. The mission of this institution emphasizes value based education as well as moulding the character of the younger generation. To make this real, the exposure arranged by this institution as well as the MBA-MS program through various activities, workshops and mentoring have shaped myself for further achievements. Placement department has helped and supported me from the initial stages for my career growth. The MBA – MS program has given me a foundation to thrive in a corporate managerial world out there.

The unique MBA-MS dual degree program at Amrita school of business has groomed me holistically. Amrita was always a second home to me, as it is “Home away from Home”.

The best thing in this college is its highly knowledgeable and friendly faculty, who treat you like family, who continuously guide & motivate you, and who are always available to help you. Apart from this, the ambiance, the infrastructure, the co-curricular & extra-curricular events, the trip to University at Buffalo, are all well-organized and well-designed, and I’m happy that I got an opportunity to experience it all.
The uniqueness of the MBA-MS dual degree program is many fold apart from the few obvious ones. The MS courses mainly deal with strategy, development and analytics which is a must-have for any manager in today’s competitive world. Thus the MBA and the MS program go hand in hand. The Bengaluru campus houses a cozy atmosphere and students become one closely-knit family – encouraging healthy competition, learning to work in multi-faceted teams and leading initiatives. One of the most enlightening highlights of the program is the “unlearning and learning” period at University of Buffalo (UB), State University of New York (SUNY). Not only were the students exposed to an entirely different pedagogy but the stint at UB also taught us the importance of working in diverse conditions and groups, working with deadlines and exams that give us every kind of advantage whilst being the most challenging. This educational modality helped us to think better and faster even in our MBA courses, making our presentations and answers smarter and more strategic.
