Abhishek Sharma's Review On Kirloskar Institute Of Management - [KIM], Harihar

College is overall Nice and so is the environment. One needs to work on himself/ herself first to ensure a better life ahead.

CAT - 89.8 Percentile Reason for Choosing KIAMS:- Better ROI (Total fees was 6.4 lacs inclusive everything). Placements Track Record was also 85%.

KIAMS harihar campus is like a resort which is beautifully located and offers you the chance to learn and get indulged into sports like Swimming, Squash and TT. The campus canteen also takes care of all students really well. Coming to the curriculum, first year being the common year for everyone the faculty and the Lecturers we re really helpful and a lot of case studies were involved. Second year the focus was on academic as well as real time case studies and especially faculty members like V S Pai & Anant Ram Sir were SUPERB.

Yes, College did provide the internship and one has to be competent enough to get options like TTK Prestige or JWT in marketing specially. Other than that through networking and being in regular tough with immediate seniors and college Alumni, one can ensure his/her internship with reputed and good firms in India.

Firstly as i have mentioned above that for the Placements and Job Opportunities, it entirely depends on the Individual and how well he/ she can do the skill enhancement and networking to achieve the same. College does provide the option of at least 10+ companies to every candidate, provided the CGPA 2.5.

All major festivals of India, all major movies and specially ones Birthday and all special days of college are celebrated in the college. No one will ever get a chance to complain regarding that ever and the DJ nights, which happen once in 3 months is something to look after for.

Fees is totally feasible and it ensures the better ROI (Total fees was 6.4 lacs inclusive everything). Hence, for me it was one of the major reason for choosing the college. Also, college never charge you anything that is unnecessary and illogical. The hostel facilities and the food charges are also inclusive in the same.

As far as I am concerned, during my tenure i dint come across any candidate that was offered either of the above mentioned things.

Food is decent and the preparation of the same is hygienic. I still remember that we use to wait for Wednesdays as being a North Indian we wood get Paranthas on that day. Even for non vegetarians, the options were quite good and tasty food was provided to everyone during that time span.

Alumni Network is great but college actually never paid any attention to build that more to help the current batch, which is one thing which i have always complained about. But nonetheless social networking sites like Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter are really helpful in case, one wants to use that network to his/ her use.

Exam structure is as per the Indian standard which is consisting of assignment submission, case studies, presentations, class tests and semester tests. Also, the type of the test paper varies as per the faculty members and it is in line with the current scenario.

The permanent faculty members of the college were really supportive and updated. Sometimes the visiting faculty members were not that great but overall the learning and the experience was worth it. Specific courses like Strategic Marketing I & II along with Sales & Retail Management are one of the best to know about the Indian as well as the International market and Firms.
