The entrance Exam considered is CAT only. During the admission process, college does not market themselves sufficiently and properly. Also, colleges should register themselves with the CAT as a non-dim institute to directly get the scores of the candidates. Support from the college during the admission process is not proper. The administration responds to issues and queries late, and most of this is handled by students, while it should be handled by the administration
Course Curriculum Overview :
I choose this course because of my interest in analytics. The curriculum here is aligned more toward analytics, marketing, finance, and operations, in sequence. So are the placements. From a techno-managerial perspective, this structure is perfect as students learn about business and technology also. The faculty in the IME department is quite good and experienced and reputed. Each faculty is expert in their domain and they offer elective courses specific to their domain. Students can choose their electives based on their interests. Most faculty follow a practical teaching method. Concepts, theories, and case studies are done. Projects are almost a part of every course along with presentations. Exams are conducted in two parts. Mid-Term and End-Term. Weightage is assigned to exams. Along with exams, quizzes, attendance, projects, and presentations also carry weight. Passing is not at all difficult, in fact, regular class participation only is sufficient for good marks.
Internships Opportunities :
Internship opportunities come with good roles in reputed companies as well as startups. You will learn a lot in an internship, especially in startups. There your role is not only one, but you will have an opportunity to work with and in multiple teams. You may work on big projects under experienced managers and mentors.
Placement Experience :
Placements start from 3rd semester of the program. Companies visited depend on the batch size and requirements of the batch. Placement details can be found in the report uploaded on the IME website. Usually, the plan of all students is to get placed have some corporate experience, understand the domain, and industry in depth and then look for better opportunities or go for a startup if they have a great idea.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
A fess hike is unlikely in coming years. So the fee will be the same for at least 3-4 years. There is no financial assistance except for SC, ST has no tuition fees. MBA first years have to do a compulsory internship in the summer term. Stipends for the 21-23 batches varied from 20k to 100k per month. Final Placements are provided by the placement committee for the MBA batch. At the pan IITK level, there are also common placements for all, where you have the opportunity to apply if the company has opened its position for MBA.
Campus Life :
The campus is great. There is everything to do, whatever your passion/hobby maybe there will be a club for it. Interested students can be a part of them. We have MBA fests as well as IITK-level fests. Antaragini is our cultural fest in October, Techkriti is our technical fest, and Udghosh is our sports fest. Prabandhan is our management fest. In terms of infrastructure IME has its building, with well-equipped classrooms, labs, canteens, etc. Prabandhan is the management fest of MBA IIT Kanpur.

Meal quality varies from hostel to hostel but the overall quality is good. The menu is standard across all and keeps changing based on students' feedback and suggestions.
