Course Curriculum Overview

5

The course curriculum is up-to-date with industry case studies and overall very informative. The 2-year academic tenure at IIM Bangalore is highly rigorous for the students which leads to the creation of an overall competitive environment.

Internships Opportunities

5

More than 100 companies visit IIM Bangalore for summer placement recruitment every year. These companies offer internship roles in Finance, Consulting, Product Management, Sales, Marketing, General Management, and Analytics mainly.

Placement Experience

5

IIM Bangalore provides placement assistance to all students. In 2022, during the final placement season, more than 180 companies of high repute visited the campus and offered more than 660 full-time roles to the PGP batch.

Fees and Financial Aid

Tuition fees are 23 Lakhs for two years which is somewhat on the upward side. Mess and hostel fees are 30,000 per trimester. Usually, the tuition fees are hiked every 2-3 years. Students with family incomes less than 8 lakhs annually are eligible for financial assistance.

Campus Life

5

The campus life at IIM Bangalore is very happening. There are more than 35+ clubs and societies of various functions and domains where candidates are admitted based on interviews and interests. A rule is formulated by the Academic Committee that no student can be a part of more than 1 club and 1 society throughout his/her tenure at IIMB.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Each student is provided with a single occupancy hostel room. There are old hostel blocks and new hostel blocks. There is one campus mess for all the students, be it from PGP, PGPBA, FPM. Mess Food is of high quality and the variety in menu is quite exhaustive. Students are allowed to opt out of hostel in second year but mandatory to live-in in the first year.

Admission

IIM Bangalore should reduce the weightage of 10th and 12th standard marks. School-level academic credentials sometimes become a roadblock for potential candidates who might not have performed well in high school.

Interview Experience

5

IIM Bangalore conducts Personal Interview and Written Ability Tests post the CAT results are announced. WAT usually asks candidates to write their viewpoints on any current topic from the political, economic, or any other field which is crucial at a macro level.

Course Curriculum Overview:

For jobs, it prepares you very well. You work through real case studies, Harvard business simulations, and a 4-to-6-month corporate internship, so you aren't completely clueless on day one at an office. If your goal is a PhD or pure research, though, it leans a bit too practical and corporate rather than deeply academic.
