Post Graduate Program in Management (PGPM) - Batch of 2024

5Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Joyful journey of IIM Kozhikode .

Placements: At IIM Kozhikode, placements for students start in their final year. There are about 125 companies that are participating in campus drives, some of which are consulting giants like BCG, Brains, Accenture and leading companies of BFSI (Goldman Sachs, Citibank), FMCG (Nestled, HUL) and IT (Microsoft, Amazon), etc.; they visit frequently; the highest package offered last year was 65 LPA, and the average is 28 LPA. The summer internship programme is an integral part of the curriculum, in which many companies come and give internships. Almost all students get good internships. Deloitte provides most internships.

Infrastructure: Institute and city connectivity are poor. The weather is humid most days. The institute invites famous personalities, like Philip Kotlar, to deliver talks on marketing. Ankit Tiwari and Kimar Varun are also invited. Books and course packs are included in the package and provided by the college. All classrooms have AC, Wi-Fi and auditorium seating that is comfortable. The campus has serval badminton, basketball, table tennis and squash court. There is a 25-meter swimming pool, 1 football court, 11 volleyball courts and a few cricket nets. A common gym is there for students. In hostels, single, double and triple-occupancy rooms are available with AC and attached washrooms. I am from Maharashtra and find it difficult in terms of food habits .

Faculty: Teachers at IIM have a lot of years of experience, are the highest education degree holders and have amazing subject knowledge. IIM is the best institute for management in India; no doubt, its curriculum is fully aligned with industries and the latest technologies. They simply create entrepreneurs rather than employees. Semesters are based on quizzes and case studies but there is a lot of pressure because exams are very difficult .

IIMK campus with all fun and learning.

Placements: The placements in almost every IIM are good, and the same is true for my college, IIM Kozhikode. Almost everyone will get placed, and the companies that attend our college are finance-based e-commerce and finance management companies. The highest package in our college was around 85 LPA, and the median, that is, the average package, is around 25 LPA to 30 LPA, depending on the year. The roles offered are mostly financial manager or CEO, if luck favors you.

Infrastructure: The course is well-designed and makes us ready for industry implementation, which is a very good part that attracts many students towards IIM. The hostel and many other things on the campus are maintained up to the mark, and they are well-designed for the comfort of on-campus students. The campus is fully equipped with Wi-Fi routers and has good AC classrooms. The quality of food available in the mess is very good and hygienic. I literally enjoyed my 2 years' stay on campus.

Faculty: The faculty here are highly educated and have good knowledge of the subject, but they don't interact with the students like many faculty members of B.Tech. or B.Com. do. They give only less time for students to interact and leave the class after taking their class. The semester exams and other exams are set at a good frequency, and there will be only limited exams throughout the semester. The difficulty level of the semester would not be that high; one could easily score with proper preparation.

Other: I took this course after completing my CA for better job opportunities and tried hard to get into IIM. The improvements that are needed to the course are nothing; the course is perfectly designed and suitable for all kinds of students. There are many extracurricular activities at the college. The college has clubs, departments, all sports facilities, medical facilities, shopping facilities, and many more on the campus itself. The events and festivals are the best part of any college, and the same is true for IIMK.

Top Class Facilities in the campus.

Placements: The entire batch gets placed. The placecomm works very hard in bringing good companies. This time the entire placement was over within 3 days. A total of 571 offers were rolled out from 116 companies. The consulting domain accounted for approximately 41% of the roles offered by conglomerates, MNCs, and startups. The average salary was 29.9 lacs pa while the median salary was 26.6 lacs pa. Top recruiting companies were Mckinsey, Brain and Co. , The Boston Consulting Group, Deloitte, Walmart, Amazon, Flipkart, EY, KPMG, PWC, Everest Groups, J&J, Asian Paints, JPMC, GS, Deutsche Bank, .

Infrastructure: The institute has all the major facilities. Hostels, high-speed internet, 24*7 electricity, well-equipped classrooms, and a great library. Some of the hostels are single-seater while some are double. All rooms get a good internet connection. There are football and basketball courts, common areas having a foosball table, table tennis table. The campus is also wheelchair friendly. Hostels are good. The mess has a variety of food every day. Both veg and non-veg options are available. If you wish you can buy snacks separately. The hostels have common areas to allow both boys and girls to hang out and relax. There are night canteens too for the late workers. There is a post office and an SBI bank. There is also a dispensary available. Since the campus is situated on a hill, there are buses plying at regular intervals both uphill and downhill.

Faculty: The professors are well-versed with their subjects and are very helpful. They do not only guide you in for studies but will help you in your case competitions as well. Some teachers really know their way with the students and go beyond the normal classroom interaction. The MBA is a hectic course and one should only opt for it if he is sure of it. It is a value for money course and it makes an individual a great strategist, leader, and industry-ready.

Other: I wanted to upskill myself. Also, MBA provides acceleration in your career. The first term is very hectic, CV building CV vetting, SIP preparation, section wars, studies, assignments, projects, everything happens simultaneously. So if the first term events are made to span out a bit, it would definitely help the students.
