"The Power PGPM course can only be structured in a state-of-the-art business school like UMA, promoted and managed by an industrial conglomerate."

For Abhay Kumar Singh, selecting the correct B-school was an all-important decision; he knew that his future pretty much depended on getting it right. He embarked on a huge exercise, touring and surveying as many as 35 B-schools which fell within his budget. The moment he saw the sprawling Salt Lake campus of the Usha Martin Academy Kolkata, and the credentials of its formidable industry-based faculty, his decision was made.

"I would not have believed it had it not been for the credibility of the Usha Martin brand. The instant I was told that Usha Martin was backing UMA Kolkata, my decision was made. I knew that they could afford to provide me with really high standards of education, and placement would be the least of my troubles. I joined the 2011-13 batch, and so far, it has been a fantastic Return on Investment."

But for Subho Mondol and Kailash Shaw, who are specialising in Marketing at UMA Kolkata, the main draw proved to be the unique Power PGPM course at UMA Kolkata.

"The Power PGPM Course is something that can only be structured in a state-of-the-art business school promoted and managed by an industrial conglomerate," says Kailash Shaw. "It packages two years of certified work-ex with various companies of the Usha Martin Group, along with the 2- year PGDM certification.It allows you to build a mindset for the corporate life ahead - a first-hand experience of the interaction and presentation skills required to thrive and survive in the corporate world."

For Subho Mondol, the location of the UMA Kolkata in Salt Lake is pretty much 'in Kolkata, yet far away from the madding crowd'.

"We get a lot of time to bond with our batchmates within the campus. Salt Lake has a lot of serene places where youngsters can hangout as well as party. The alley chai-wala within the UMA Kolkata campus is always abuzz with vibrant discussion during, and even after college hours."
