This is one of the best colleges for doing an MBA.

Top roles offered are management trainee, sales manager, consultant, etc.
Infrastructure: All facilities are available in IIM Sirmaur for providing the best quality education. The new permanent campus will be the biggest IIM in the country area-wise and top-class facility-wise. A library is present, with many different books available there.

One of the most Ethical B-Schools in the country .
Placements: The placements are still ongoing as I write the review. The highest package was around 32 LPA offered by Amazon while I don't remember the exact name of the company, but the lowest package was around 10 LPA. The top recruiting companies are Amazon, DE Shaw, DCM Shriram, FIITJEE, ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank, Big 4 and others to name a few. IIM Sirmaur saw 100% Summer Internship placements for the 2024 batch. The companies were ICICI Bank, Indigo, DE Shaw, Nestled and HDFC Bank. The top roles that are usually offered to final year students are usually Management Trainee heavy. The other roles may include Consultant, Business Analyst, Sales Manager to name a few. The Placement Council is one of the most Ethical bunch of people I have seen in my life. They help the students like no other and they never force the students to opt out of placements. They make sure that each and every student gets placed even if you wind up your MBA. They sick around until the very end.
Infrastructure: Although the old campus had each and every facility required to provide quality education, the upcoming new permanent campus will be the biggest IIM of the country area wise and will have world class facilities from one of the biggest libraries in the country to top notch industry software like the Bloomberg terminals. The quality of food was subpar while the sports environment was pretty good and you get to participate in multiple sports events every month.
Faculty: IIM Sirmaur has one of the best Marketing Departments in the country. The faculty members are all PhDs from Iims and from world class universities. The curriculum is up-to date and make sure tat each and every student becomes industry ready. The semester exams' difficult level is subjective. However, if a student is able to listen to the faculty in the class, he/she can easily be in the 5percentile of the students.

MBA in Travel, Tourism and Hospitality Management - Batch of 2022
4.4
4.0Placements4.0Infrastructure5.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life4.0Value for Money
A new course which is well ahead of its time with great faculty, good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: This course is very new and we are the first batch and hence the placement details will be available after the end of this year. However, the summer internship attracted some leading companies from the tourism and hospitality sector such as Marriott, IHG and Travel Triangle. Moreover, 100% of the students were placed during the summer internships.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is really good. There is constant connectivity through Wi-Fi at all parts of the campus. The library is well-equipped with all your academic needs and the classrooms are spacious. The hostel rooms are spacious with the choice of single or double rooms. Moreover, the scenery is beautiful. The food is good (compared to average hostel standards). There are all kinds of sports facilities available ranging from football, cricket, badminton to billiards, carrom, chess etc.
Faculty: All the teachers are highly qualified with good experience and great academic credentials. They are very helpful and definitely knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good but at the end of the day it depends on the student's persistence regarding his learning. The course curriculum is relevant and provides theoretical as well as practical knowledge through assignments and projects. It does make you industry ready to some extent but books alone cannot do that. You need to do live projects and internships to be industry ready and the university does well to bring such frequent opportunities for the students.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in travelling and I wanted to know more about that industry and make a career out of it. There are hordes of extracurricular activities such as fests, case study competitions, fun quizzes etc. Happening throughout the year. There are also different societies and clubs which are general and domain-based and are good enough to keep you occupied throughout the day.

Other: For me, real-life problem solving is always more intriguing than mugging up theories and books. In the same line, management is something without which I can't think about my day. So, I wanted to capitalize on my potential in solving real management problems and risk management. In the long run of my career, I wanted to set up my own business firm in the service sector or operation management for that matter. Now, following my vision, I need to accomplish a stronghold on the core values of management and algorithm of business and somewhere down the line, IIM Sirmaur is facilitating me all the resources and environment to boost my career and goal.
