Kirloskar Institute of Management Harihar Answered Questions

Placements: Placements in KIAMS are good when compared to the other premier B schools. Top companies are coming to hire the students with a minimum package of INR 5.0 lakhs per annum. More than half of the students got placed during the mid-session of the second year. The highest package offered is 12.0 lakhs per annum whereas the average package is 6.15 lakhs per annum. The placement growth is increased compared to the past year. Institute also provides the internship of 3 months for the students, in many cases they might give the stipend based on the company and their willingness to give the stipend, if the individual shows the utmost interest during the intern period they might provide the PPO (pre-placement offer)
Infrastructure: KIAMS is a fully residential campus, and it provides 24/7 Wi-Fi facilities for the students in the campus as well as in the hostel but the speed of the wi-fi has to improve. College is full on greenery and has a very pleasant atmosphere. There will be both indoor and outdoor games in the campus like Badminton, Table Tennis, Cricket, Football, and squash, Basketball, Volleyball and Carroms. Institute has a clinic in the campus for student health and also has a gymnasium, and swimming pool. Infrastructure of classrooms and labs is very good but there is a need of improvement in the infrastructure too. Institute is providing high-quality food to the students as well as to the faculty.
Faculty: Faculty members in the institute are well experienced and qualified from premier institutes in India. Institute more often depends upon the visiting faculty to provide quality knowledge to the students. The course curriculum is also very practical oriented whereas most of the faculty members have vast industry experience to share with their students. Now the faculty and student ratio is 1:20. There are industry visits for students to help to understand what is happening in the industry and to link the academics with the industry. The learning includes case studies and is practical oriented. Case studies written by the faculty have published in both national and international journals.

I can tell you about BIIB, where the placements are 100%, provided you should fulfil the campus placement eligibility criteria i.e you should not have backlogs and attendance should be above 90%. College will put their best efforts to get you placed. Rest is on your caliber and your hard work. All the best for your endeavors.

Hello Shekhar,
KIAMS is an autonomous college specifically for PGDM course. It is located in two locations Harihar, Karnataka and Pune. You will be studying in both the campuses, 25-50% of the course in either of the campuses. The college is residential and provides good infrastructure facilities. The specializations provided by college are marketing, finance, operations, HRM and strategy. Coming to placements, the average package is Rs 4.5 LPA for 2016 batch.
Thank you.

Hello Supriya,
College will not be providing any laptop for you. If you feel it's required, you can bring it and use but college has two computer laboratories which will be available for you and can be useful for your work.The college is surrounded with a 24/7 Wi-Fi facility with a limit of usage everyday.

I am happy for you as you selected marketing as your major by taking Kirloskar into consideration which is a good specialization in the college. But, the college doesn't provide any courses related to health care management. The only courses provided by KIAMS are marketing, finance, operations and HR. For your second specialization, you need to choose any one of them as per your interest.
