    Campus Life

    A Day in Life of an IMI Kolkata PGDM Student : As a first year student, my typical day is filled with a number of exciting and challenges activities. My day starts around 8 AM with a half-hour gym session. After breakfast, classes begin at 9 AM and continue until 12:30 PM. Following a one-hour break to rejuvenate, have lunch, and chat with friends, classes resume around 1:30 PM. After back-to-back interactive and engaging brainstorming sessions with our esteemed faculty, we conclude the academic day. In the Evening, after enjoying some delicious snacks and fun time with friends, students have a variety of options. Some prefer playing games like cricket, badminton, table tennis, or pool, while others head to their room for self study. Many stays in the lounge for group study or work with their respective clubs and committees. Most of us, being night owls, find our focus and productivity amidst the quiet and calm of the night, completing group assignments, preparing for exams, or fulfilling important duties of clubs and committees while the city sleeps. One of the most enriching experiences has been the Design Thinking for Rural Innovation course. the initiative, in collaboration with the school of design thinking and Mission Samriddhi, provided us with an invaluable opportunity to engage directly with village panchayats and residents. The primary goal of our visit was to gain firsthand insights into the challenges faced by the rural community. This hands-on experience not only enriched our understanding but also allowed us to contribute meaningfully to the community.

    Have a question related to IMI Kolkata ?

    hi,

    International management institute in kolkata offers courses on following disciplines,

    • Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM)
    • Fellowship Programme in Management (FPM), Doctoral Level Programme

    PGDM programme is equivalent to MBA with equivalence granted by Association of Indian Universities (AIU), Government of India.

    KINDLY mention which course admission details you want to know, then we may help you with necessary information.

    IMI Kolkata is pretty average college. For IMI only the Delhi campus is good and the Bhubaneshwar campuse is a little decent. The PGDM program consists of courses like Marketing, Finance and Human resources management. The fees for the PGDM program in IMI Kolkata is 12.4 lakhs but the placements are not up to the mark. Companies like ICICI Prudential, HDFC Life insurance, Jaro Education, Ujjivan and some other startups visit the campus but the job roles offered are mostly for sales. For Human Resources Management most of the companies like TCS, Arohan Financial Services and others conduct pool campusing. The average compensation package offered there is 5-6 lakhs. So if you have limited options with you in terms of colleges or you want to pursue marketing management then this college won't be a bad option. But they do have good alumni base which can help you in future growth.

    Good Luck
