Indian institute of management Visakhapatnam.

Placements: The placement record of the college is becoming more promising with each passing day. Currently, a limited number of companies are visiting. The highest package offered, as per the latest record, is 42 lakhs, and the average is 16.5 lakhs, with 50% of the batch falling above the average range. The top 25% receive approximately a 23 lakh package. The roles offered include analyst, wealth management trainee, senior analyst, finance analyst, IT consultant, etc. Top recruiters include ICICI Bank, Deloitte, KPMG, Yes Bank, EY, Anand Rathi, and Amul.

Infrastructure: The campus is newly built with all modern amenities. The vicinity in which the campus is located is quite desolate. Facilities are still under construction, so constant construction noise disturbs. The location is very far from the main city, with limited options for cabs and online orders. Networks like Airtel have issues on campus, but the newly built library has all study materials. I receive a single occupancy room with AC, fan, almirah, cupboard, mattress, a 7-foot-long mirror, a whiteboard, and a pinboard, with daily room cleaning facilities. Food is mostly South Indian, but we receive chicken three days a week.

Faculty: Teachers are passionate about teaching; they are here because it is their passion; otherwise, they could get a higher salary in any corporate company. Their teaching is of high quality and they have knowledge of all subjects. The course is well-structured, and mentoring by IIM Bangalore PGP is a two-year course. The first year is common for all; from the second year, we are free to choose subjects. The course mostly revolves around case studies from Harvard University. Two exams are conducted during the three-month term, which are mostly case-based. However, communication with supporting staff is difficult because they only know Telugu.

Other: The regional language is a problem as they do not understand any language other than Telugu, making communication very difficult.

Faculty: I want to transition from a Digital Marketer to a Brand Manager and handle the overall marketing activities of a brand and help scale it. In order to do that I have to gain knowledge of consumer behaviour, brand management, traditional marketing methods, product pricing and more. Thus MBA was the right fit for me. There are about 90 students in a class who are taught by a teacher Most of the faculty members are PHDs from reputed institutes such as IITs and other Iims The term exams are conducted in a timely and are not too difficult to pass if one does regular self-study and preparation for it.

About the campus of Visakhapatnam.

Placements: There will be a structured mechanism that should be strictly followed by the placement in-charge to ensure that all students get placed in some top companies with the best packages. The rate of success in placement for the course of PGP would be 72 to 89% definitely. Rest of them succeeded or not it's mostly based on the drive toughness.

Infrastructure: I am overwhelmed to share the infrastructure and facilities of IIM Visakhapatnam. It's a beautiful space fully filled with beautiful souls and good vibes only. Events are arranged in great manner, and the students from other colleges participate in such events.

Faculty: Teachers randomly pick the students from the whole class and give them some responsibilities, and it is shifted to another person after a month.
