About postgraduate program in IIM, Sambalpur.

Faculty: Faculty members instruct the students in a melodious tone, their tone is too harsh if the activities of the students are above the limits. Faculty members are helpful and treasure of knowledge with abundant resources. Faculty members provide detailed explanations even for minute topics.

IIM Sambalpur: Odisha's Institute of National importance.

Faculty: Course curriculum is hectic, but faculty members are great, hence, there is a lot of learning in the two years of MBA. There are 6 terms in total, and each term is 3 months long and has two written examinations mid-term and end-term. The constant grooming ensures the students are industry-ready.

Reputable academy for studying.

Faculty: Records,assignments and other home work should be submitted in given time schedule.Because teachers put marks for internals based on such works.Teachers have moderate level of experience in teaching,but few of them were experienced more than 10 years in the field of teaching.

Learning Experience: Learning platforms are accessible by us in both the sources such as online and offline.Sometimes teachers won't cover the whole syllabus due to insufficient time period.

Review of Indian institute of technology, Sambalpur.

I am satisfied with IIM Sambalpur till now. It is a good college.

Faculty: If students are joining an IIM, they need not to worry about their studies. Because the faculty members are highly qualified and well-established in their specific field. Each one holds a Ph.D. from an IIM itself. The learning pedagogy emphasizes more on your practical learning and presentation style. We have components like class participation, presentation, group presentation, and quiz. Nearly 70% of every subject is evaluated on these bases. Only 30% is left for the exams.

Placements and infrastructure of the college are good. It is an ideal place to pursue HRM course.

Faculty: Faculty members are well experienced and had teaching experience in other IIMs. Those who wish to pursue HRM like me, it is the right institution as it gives good importance to HRM too. The planning for innovative flip classrooms is still in progress. Most of the classes are conducted using PPTs, and the teaching methods are very interactive. Faculty members always try to promote interactive classes.
