Christ University MBA Ranking in India is ranked as one of the Best University among all the other private colleges in India.Christ University MBA Ranking, in India is ranked as one of the Best University among all the other private colleges in India. Christ Mba Approval: Christ College is the first institution in Karnataka which is accredited by NAAC followed by re-accreditation rating as A+ level in the year 2005.
Programs: Christ University has four Management Programs and here are the details:
1) MBA (Christ University): This is the flagship program of the College. The MBA program which many students aspire is spread across 6 trimesters (two years). You have a choice of 4 specializations to opt for in this program, they are: HRM, Marketing, Finance and Lean Operations and Systems (LOS). You have to choose your specialization in the very first trimester unlike other MBA colleges which is a great idea as students would be focused right from the beginning of the course. HRM specialization is available only in the Main Campus while the other 3 are available in both the campuses.
2) PGDM (Christ University) and MBA (Wuerzburg – Schweinfurt University, Germany).: They call this the German Program in Christ which is a PGDM awarded by Christ University and an MBA from Wuerzburg – Schweinfurt University which happens through transfer of credits. Students would do 1 trimester in Germany and 5 in Bangalore and 40% of the classes are taught by German faculty. Now this German University is mainly into applied sciences and I fail to understand how much value it can create into a Management program. The global rankings for this University are not great either. I would suggest you do some solid research on this program before opting for it.
3) MBA International Business: This Program called the Singapore Program which is an MBA Program (6 trimesters) which specializes in International Business (Marketing and Finance). The degree is awarded by Christ University and a certificate is provided by Learning Capital which is an Institution with courses on Child Care and Childhood education. This time I really fail to understand what value Learning Capital can offer for an MBA program in International Business. However students would spend 4 weeks in Singapore for their summer internship which happens after their 3rd trimester.
4) MBA Executive: Now this is a 4 Semester (2 years) Program for working Professionals with a minimum work experience of 2 years. Classes are held from 6:30-8:30 pm from Monday through Friday. I shall discuss more on this Program on my future posts dedicated to Part time MBA.

Prepare for Christ University Bangalore GD
There is absolutely no preparation required for the GD . But u have to remember the following points
Make sure that u are aware about the current situation in politics ( current affairs)
Develop your communication skills . If you are already good at English then it's not a problem
Try to make your point during the discussion . To be precise make sure the panel members and the judge have listened to ur voice and point
To be frank , once the GD starts people will start shouting . My suggestion is let them fight , listen to thier thoughts and pitch in ur opinion at the right time
Remember it's not about how much you speak . It's about how valid your input is
You can also try being the driver of the discussion . If you think the discussion is out of the topic you can guide them saying that we are deviating . This will fetch you additional points
You can be a time keeper . Keep a check on time and if you think that the group is not reaching a conclusion on the topic , you can let them know that you are running out of time and the group needs to come to a conclusion . This will fetch you additional points too
In terms of the topic , it will be mostly about current affairs ( expect topics about : demonetisation , India china army standoff , privatisation of Air India)
