METHODOLOGY
Research
organization C fore conducted the survey to rank top B-schools in India based
on their performance in year 2004-05.The methodology and parameters for
evaluation were reviewed by a committee consisting of representatives from
industry and academia.
The B-schools were ranked based on objective data and the satisfaction
scores of key stakeholders i.e industry, students and faculty. The survey
was open to all B-schools in India at site www.indiabschools.com
where a questionnaire designed for the survey could be down loaded.
Invitation was also sent to 950 B-schools to participate. In all
234 of them responded. Information on some institutes was also obtained
from secondary sources available. The validation exercise was carried by a
special team which cross-checked the data by asking for necessary
documents like appointment letters, balance sheets, annual report etc.
Veracity of information was also checked by ‘mystery shopping’ method.
The objective scores were obtained by evaluating B-schools against the
following six broad parameters
-
Placement
performance
-
Intellectual
capital
-
Infrastructure
and facilities
-
Industry interface.
-
International Linkages
-
Extra curricular activities
These
were further divided into sub-parameters as shown in the table. The marks
were allotted in a particular category by normalizing against the topper
in that category. E.g if marks for maximum salary are 55 and the highest
in this category is Rs 16 lakhs, then marks allotted to an institute is
where maximum salary offered was Rs 8 lakhs were 8/16 * 55 = 27.5 B-schools with
entry barriers like only engineers and whose flagship course is oriented
to a particular specialization were
listed under sectoral B-schools and were evaluated against the same
parameters.
The satisfaction survey of recruiters was conducted online at site
indiabschools.com. 639 of them participated. The recruiters were asked to
rate the graduates of the B-schools they were familiar with against six
parameters namely effectiveness in application of knowledge of subject /
Skills, analytical skills, communication and presentation skills,
creativity, proactive attitude and ability to work in team. The
satisfaction survey for students and faculty was open to students and
faculty of all B-schools at indiabschools.com since
September 2004. In all 6345 students and 1,125 faculty members
participated. The aggregate score of the year long exercise was taken to
asses a institute. The students and faculty were also asked to rank top
B-schools in the country and also in their state. These results and other
findings are available at site indiabschools.com.
The
project team consisted of Naveen Bhatt, T.K
