A place for overall growth - More than academics
Placements: I had a great experience at JKSHIM. The college offers great exposure, helping to meet people from the corporate environment. College works on to get good placements and have companies offering different roles. I am grateful for having been placed at Infineon Technologies.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are great in terms of safety, food, and accommodation too. Various facilities like Wi-Fi, medical facilities (emergency assistance), gym, common rooms, etc., are also provided. Overall, it is a good option to stay as it is just beside the college.
Faculty: My experience at JKSHIM was truly enriching. College offers much more than academics. I had the opportunity to attend business conclaves, participate in industry interactions, promo shoots, etc., which helped me grow personally as well as professionally. JKSHIM's supportive faculty played a key role. I am grateful for the experience and guidance received.

A better exposure to the world of finance and investment.
Placements: The placement rate is really good with 15 LPA being the highest package this year. Most of the students got placed in companies such as GT, Hiveminds, Federal Bank, etc. The minimum package was 4 LPA, and opportunities for investment banking companies are less here.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is really good. Also, the classrooms are well-equipped with air conditioners. The canteen and library are also good with many options. Wi-Fi facility is available throughout the day. It has a positive environment and is close to nature.
Faculty: The courses are structured really well, especially the finance and investment banking aspects, which are taught really well with hands-on experience and exercise. The Bloomberg lab facility gives access to many of the finance-related data of real companies, which gives better analysis exposure.
Other: The finance specialisation is well-structured with a lot of real-time analysis and exposure, where we can understand a company fundamentally and technically with real time data. The management fest conducted in ETTIN is one of the good fests conducted in the locality.

Teachers' transparency sometimes hits hard.
Placements: The placements for the discipline of MBA are not so good. Placement offices have to be panicked during the time of drives, by explaining the competition and risk in drives. Even though we are provided with repeated training, the companies show less interest in hiring the students of the MBA. As 42% to 45% of students only got placed in the drives.
Infrastructure: Even though ragging is banned in colleges, we see a small group of such behaviour in the initial period of college. The zone of mess is a peaceful environment, even preferred to study over the area. The management integrated students from distinct branches by initiating various socially responsible activities.
Faculty: Teachers are more transparent in evaluating the papers, and they are ready to point out the reasons for their evaluation. Teachers broke the students' confidence by underestimating our performance in academic areas as well as in any other research activities.

Review of Justice K S Hegde Institute of Management.
Placements: In terms of placement, finance and marketing have good placement. Companies like Grant Thornton, South Indian Bank, BDO, IDBI Bank, Wipro, and ITC have come for placements. The highest package for our batch is Rs. 15 LPA, and the average package is 6-7 LPA.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good with proper labs, smartboards, a canteen and hostel facilities. Most of the classrooms have AC, and a few don't. The college also has a Bloomberg lab facility, which will help to get practical insights. The hostel facility in the college is quite good. It is a bit expensive but has good facilities like washing machines, cleaning service, etc.
Faculty: Faculty members in the college are well-experienced and have a deep knowledge (both in terms of practical and theoretical) of the subject. In terms of teaching, the college has a strong team of professors with good practical and theoretical knowledge and experience in teaching. Course curricula are flexible, and the college offers specialisation in Fintech and AI & Business analytics. Subjects in the specialisation are revised as per the industry standards.
