Absolutely satisfied with it.

Placements: The institution has a good alumni network so it has decent placement. The highest package offered last year is 14.72LPA with a median package of 8LPA. Companies mostly come here for marketing and finance mostly focusing on positions in investment banking.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is quite comfortable with digital classrooms, auditorium, and a huge library to access both physical and online books. A canteen that serves everything along a sports room and a ground where students can enjoy on weekends. Reflects positivity.

Faculty: The course is divided into 4 semesters with continuous internal assessment. The faculty is well experienced and has great knowledge to deliver. This institute makes sure that students become industry ready as they get placed. It has an internship programme for 6 months.

Other: The institution conducts a lot of cultural events, ensuring that students unwind and chill as well.

I am satisfied until the faculty showed the favouritism.

Placements: Placements are not certain because I am still pursuing the course degree but as per last year peers they are getting placements. 70 percent placement rate as per my knowledge with the seniors placement available. You should have that much potential to grab the opportunities.

Infrastructure: Facilities are available. You will never regret these things. Classrooms are very high tech and also provide free Wi-Fi and multiple facilities for students. Their main focus is to train students to become leaders and ground staff support is very good.

Faculty: Some of the teachers show partiality with the students and show favouritism. The majority of teachers who are local are very helpful as they are supposed to be, IMDR considers and solves these issues with the same faculty because it can affect your reputation.

Other: One thing that I notice in the forest for 4 months is that some of the faculty are focusing on training peers for the corporate world. The main motive should be to make and become entrepreneurs not only employees.

IMDR provides a nice ecosystem to learn.

Placements: Don't have personal experience as I am currently in first year of my course. The average salary I have heard is 6.5 LPA which is a good return on investment considering fees. Good amount of companies come for the campus drive. The students get placements and internships are also provided by the college.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure and facilities are really excellent. They have well-equipped classrooms and have smart boards. The auditorium also carries every facility needed. They allow students to use these facilities for academic purposes. The food in the canteen is good but expensive. Medical facility is available in case of emergency at college. College conducts sports day, and IMDR has an indoor game room. They provide Wi-Fi facility and library contains helpful and interesting books.

Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified and open to answer the questions. The course is relevant and updated which consists lots of activities beyond classroom learning making the concept practical to understand. The college takes efforts to make the students industry ready as there is a mentor allocated to each student who will help them find the flaws and work on them.
