Avijit Dhawan's Review On IIM Rohtak Indian Institute Of Management, Rohtak

I have always wanted to pursue a course in the Management domain. While I was confident about the fact that I will be pursuing an MBA as a post-graduate degree. I was not sure about the course that I will be pursuing at the Undergraduate level. Being a science student I had plenty of options that could, later on, lead me to pursue an MBA as a post-graduate degree. Then IIM Rohtak following in the footsteps of IIM Indore launched the Integrated Programme in Management (IPM) comprising of a 3 year BBA degree and a 2 year MBA degree. The fact that I would be getting an opportunity to get into a prestigious IIM right after class 12 and that IIM Rohtak was the fastest growing second generation based on campus placements and the performance of its students also excited me. The course outline provided for the course was also a versatile one ranging from courses related to social sciences to Mathematics and Statistics which would, later on, play an important role in deciding our specialization for the MBA.

The most attractive thing about this course according to me is the course curriculum followed with 60 credit courses spread over 3 terms along with a social internship for the first year and a corporate internship for the third year. The course curriculum is a versatile one ranging from social sciences like philosophy and psychology to mathematics and statistics so as to develop an overall understanding of Management as a domain and at the same time helping us later in choosing our fields. The internships in the third and first year will help us to get the required industrial exposure.

With the program being just a year old not much can be said about the program specific placement opportunities however for the Post Graduate Programme with a median placement of 14 LPA this year (a 2.25 LPA) increase from last year the placement opportunities were plenty. The college reported a 100% placement record this year too with the maximum placements being in the Marketing domain top recruiters being Capgemini, EY, Deloitte, KPMG, Cognizant, Dabur, Accenture, Amul, ICICI Bank, In three Services, Infosys, Yes Bank, Axtria and HDFC bank to name a few. The season witnessed 95+ firms vigorously recruiting from the institute with active participation from Big 4s. More than 30% of the students bagged offers in the Marketing and Sales domain from the best of firms. IIM Rohtak emerged as a preferred destination for Consulting firms with around 20% of the batch being offered roles in this sector. Companies in the BFSI sector offered roles to 30% of the batch including roles such as Credit Analyst, Financial Analyst, etc. The highest domestic CTC offered was Rs 29 LPA. The placement process is smooth and well organized thanks to the placement committee of our College which works all year long to conduct corporate competitions as well as working with the recruiters to ensure an effective and smooth placement process.

The college hosts an Annual Fest 3-day fest called the Infusion which is one of the biggest b school fests of North India and consists of sporting events with different reputed b-schools across the country participating in them. The fest also consists of the MUN and events like the band competition and the fashion show to go along with it. Moreover, to top it off events like the EDM night, Band Concert, Star Concert, and comedy night are also conducted. This year comedian Rahul Subramanian and Darshan Raval were invited to the fest. Along with this intra college sports and cultural events are organised throughout the year with the IPM clubs organizing the IPM specific events like the War Of Sections in Sports and some involving both the IPM and PGP students.

This year a lot of infrastructural development took place with the coming up of the new hostel buildings, the activity centre(consisting of the gym, and the badminton courts),the amphitheatre and then finally the main 5 floor library to add to the two student utility stores and the sports ground . The hostels are clean and freshly built with lan connections and washrooms in every room. The rooms are shared by 4 students each.

The hostels are freshly bulit with attached washrooms and lan connections in every room. The rooms are shared by 4 people each and there are two washing Machines in the boys hostel and 1 washing machine in the girls hostel for laundry purposes. There are about 6 rooms on every floor with the top two floors having the two terraces to go along with the main terrace on the top. There are balconies in each and every room and the girls hostel also has an activity room for Watching television and movies. The boys mess is located in the guest house below the girls hostel whereas the the girls mess is in the girls hostel itself. Both the hostels are situated in front of each other with a 100 m distance between them. The quality of the mess food is above average with non-veg dishes being served 4 times a week with an alternating weekly menu.
