Faculties:Most of our faculties have good corporate experience and many are PHDs. I am from a decent Engineering college and compared with that here the classroom learning is way better and interesting.
Peer Learning:In my batch, around 80% students have corporate experience and as it is the case with other B-schools of India, most of the students are from IT industry. Having said that, at SIMSR people are pretty smart and one has to up ones game to contribute. (We are yet to take final trimester exams so I still dont know how hard-working my friends are.)
Committees:There are more than 20 student-run committees in SIMSR. All are well-managed, and give ample opportunities to learn. There are a lot of club-activities happening throughout the year. So much so that almost everyday I get a mail regarding a new competition. You will need a big stack of sticky notes.
Live Projects:Not many students asks about this aspect but I personally feel that live projects are important for ground learning. In last two months, we have got more than 10 live projects opportunities, some offering decent stipends. I was a bit lazy in applying to most of them but today I have given interview for a startup.
Enough elements are provided here to spruce up your CV.
Placements:I had done my research on placements before joining SIMSR. And as I am talking about my own experience, talking about placements will be a bit out-of-place. You can easily find the list of alumni as well as recent placement figures on Internet. I rarely had any doubts in this respect before I joined the college.
