What Students Say

Likes

The campus is very lively and the environment it provides
The platform it gave us including symposium and summits
The committee that helped us in shaping us and making us responsible.

Dislikes

The food at times is not that great comparatively

Course Curriculum Overview

As I completed my bachelor in urban planning, hence I pursued urban management for master. The faculty to ratio is amazing as it is a very niche program, the ratio is somewhere between 1:1 and 1:2 The faculties are very well qualified, most of them have completed their PhD The exams are in every 3months, the 2years is divided in 6trimsters

Class Size: 18Course Fees: INR 800000 per year

Internships Opportunities

4.5

I was interning with quantum leap studio and I was provided with stipend Major projects included marketing campaign and strategy building for an ongoing project. The internship helped me in knowing the industry much better

Placement Experience

4.5

The placement in Urban management is very good. The avera Package is 10.5LPA and many companies visited from urban domain like GT, Janagraha and many consulting groups like Kpmg ey pwc etc All students got placed in my batch.

Fees and Financial Aid

As being the niche course the course feels expected to be same for the next 2 years The financial assistance is through loan that the college is tied up to for easy paperwork. But apart from that no job on campus, but internship are mostly stipend

Campus Life

The annual fest xamboree happen every year and it is for 3 days, where musical nights DJ nights are conducted The college do provides various platforms where we can get in touch with people from business world, like various events such as symposium and summits are conducted

Hostel Facilities

There are single sharing double sharing rooms available and the quality of food is good. The diversity in the food is its USP. The registration happens centrally, there is ala carte which provides seamless service to the students

Hostel Fee: INR 60000 per year

Admission

There was entrance exam, called XGMT and post that there was a PI round. The XGMT paper involved more quants and qualitative. The PI round involved the in-depth of urban management and urban planning. Knowledge of cities and urban planning is an added advantage.

IIM Sambalpur - The State-of-the-Art Campus Life

Likes

It has state-of-the-art architecture with a blend of culture
Has highly talented professors along with efficient pedagogy
AI enabled classrooms, great cohort and learning environment

Dislikes

The food provided at the mess can be improved to some extent

Course Curriculum Overview:

The pedagogy is excellent since majorly learning is through real-world case studies, reserach papers, peer discussions and interactive class activities. The professors provide materials and pre-reads at the starting of the term and the content is highly focussed on practical learning. The AI sessions are enriching. The difficulty level of exams vary among the instructors but usually is aligned with topics already taught.

Likes

The night life if good, and for me gym is the best part
The faculties have good experience and teaching skills
The mess food is also good as of what is expected as stereotype.

Dislikes

The classes some time are too much to handle
The n number of rules and regulations regarding the hostal
The basketball court and cricket ground could have been better

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is all about management where I get to learn how to manage time with daily n number of activities. Because PGDM course is actually to prepare a person for corporate life. And this course is actually a corporate simulation with education.

One of the best institution for management studies.

Admission:

I got admission to this college by taking the OJEE entrance exam, so I was exempted from taking the entrance exam like MAT, CAT, etc. And then, after my OJEE results were declared, I fill out the application form of this college and then, I attended the counseling session.

I chose this college because of the college life and curriculum. Campus life is pretty good here, you will be having many fests throughout the year.

XIM University is Universal!!

After passing my 12th boards, I thought of pursuing law as my career. And I found XIM University is best to fulfill my purpose. To get admission in this college, you need to have minimum 45% in aggregate from any recognised board. In alternate, they also consider CLAT, AILET scores. If you have not appeared in any of the entrance exams then you can give university's entrance exam i.e. XLET (Xavier's Law Entrance Test). If we talk about the application form availability, you can find it on their own website that is xim.edu.in . Application fees are 1300/- INR....Read More
