I am currently pursuing this PGDM course, & till now, I’m satisfied with the faculty & internships.

Infrastructure: College facilities are good and available 24/7. Every other facility, including games, sports, classrooms, labs, library, Wi-Fi, and medical facilities are good and maintained by the college department. There are no such issues in all these facilities and infrastructure that are available for the course.

Faculty: The course curriculum is relevant and makes students industry-ready. Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable enough to teach all the students. The teaching quality is good and should be appreciated. The difficulty of the semester exams is moderate.

A career-focused PGDM journey.

Placements: IIMS has a dedicated placement cell that actively connects students with recruiters from diverse sectors. In our batch, a good percentage of students secured internships with reputed companies in marketing, finance, and HR domains. The placement team organizes mock interviews and resume-building workshops that genuinely help students prepare.

Infrastructure: The classrooms are well-equipped with digital monitors and good seating in our college. The library has a decent collection of management books and journals. Wi-Fi connectivity is available across campus. The hostel facilities are functional and maintained. You'll get everything on campus that is necessary for the programme, with a focus on your holistic growth.

Faculty: Faculty members are experienced and approachable. Most professors bring industry exposure to their teaching, making sessions practical. Semester exams are moderately difficult with a reasonable pass percentage. Internal assessment through case studies and presentations adds good practical value to the overall learning experience.

Other: I am choosing this PGDM programme at IIMS because of its industry-relevant curriculum and placement support.

I'm totally satisfied with good placements in the course and helpful faculty members.

Placements: Around 90-95 percent of students got placed. The package offered ranges from 4-12 LPA. The average package offered ranges from 6-7 LPA. Around 100 percent of students secure internships from multiple companies. Top recruiters include reputed companies from consulting, finance, FMCG and IT sectors offering various roles.

Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are comfortable with proper security, clean rooms, good maintenance, and high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity. There is a clean mess with fresh food. We have all sports accessories and fields as well. There are also multiple sports events, which take place in the months of January and February.

Faculty: Teachers are generally helpful, well-qualified, and knowledgeable, with many having industry and academic experience. Course curriculum includes subjects like finance, marketing, taxation, HR, and analytics. Semester exams are moderately difficult, but if a student attends classes regularly, then they can pass easily.

Other: I chose the PGDM course because it offers strong career opportunities in various fields. The best thing about this course is the practical exposure that we get from internships.

Excellent program, good faculties, & a nurturing environment for all those who dare to put in effort

Placements: I'm currently in the batch of 2023-25 at IIMS Pune. Placements are underway and so far, around 35-40% of my class has secured jobs in well-known companies/corporates. Federal Bank is leading with offers in the 14-16 LPA range. The average package is around 7.5 LPA. Deloitte, FIS Global, Kuehne Nagel, Federal Bank, Mondelez are some of the top recruiters. The entire batch has secured internships.

Infrastructure: IIMS has various facilities including a hostel, computer labs, library, Wi-Fi, auditorium, canteen, modern and well-equipped classrooms with AC, smart boards, and projectors, sports grounds for cricket, football, volleyball, basketball, badminton, etc. ATM and hospital are right next to the campus. Overall, facility-wise, IIMS is satisfactory.

Faculty: Faculty members at IIMS are experienced and caring. In my experience, every student with the willingness to learn finds the necessary support at IIMS, irrespective of one's shortcomings or weaknesses. IIMS believes in experiential learning and thus practical use of management lessons is practiced here by management. The curriculum is relevant and keeps on getting updated with time and as per industry requirements. Exams are conducted to check the understanding of students and are more intuitive than being unnecessarily complex. In my findings, students certainly get industry-ready if they are actively participating in various, well-planned activities.

Other: I chose PGDM because regular university programs don't actually help with personality development. I knew that at IIMS, focus is given to making students industry-ready, and that was a USP for me. IIMS conducts various events such as VISHLESHAN, DRISHTIKON, VISTA, etc. annually, which helps students in competing, learning, and improving their caliber while practicing the lessons learned in classrooms. I am quite happy with the offerings at IIMS. With current accreditation from NBA, it will help upcoming students with better packages and profiles as well.

I am absolutely satisfied because of the faculty and the placement.

Placements: Till now, 95% are placed, and the highest package is 16 Lacs, while the lowest is 6 Lacs. Top companies are Asian Paints, Kuehne + Nagel, Mondelez, Deloitte, etc. All students got internships, and the companies for internships are Britannia, Haldiram, etc. Every company gives top roles, and the growth is high.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, and their teaching style is unique and attractive. The curriculum is totally corporate-oriented, and we have two internships and various activities that make students ready for industries. Semester exams are moderate to hard, depending on the difficulty of the subject.

Other: The best thing about my course is experiential learning, which builds critical and analytical thinking.
