Remarks

IMDR is the first and oldest B-school in Pune with more the 47+ years legacy in management school. College's alumini are at in senior post with MNC companies. Also the culture and the location is very good and suitable for the students.

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum is based on industry requirements. It's teach the current happening in the industry with the interesting subjects and faculty. We can do 2 specialisation in the final year of PGDM.eg finance + marketing, HR + operations etc.

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 135000 per year

Internships Opportunities

I had completed my internship with ADITYA BIRLA SUN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY. I got the in college itself. College provides the internship opportunity to all students.My profile was equity analyst with the stipend of 5000

Placement Experience

4.5

As I am dear is the oldest b-school with the strong alumini network.the placement not so big deal. company visited banking FMCG, operational, consultancy etc. With good amount of placements. I'm also the member of entrepreneur cell with the good experience.

College Events

4.5

The campus life is pretty comfortable for the management studies. College have many events and activities. Like kshitiz is the annual function of the college. Also industry visits, company visit also also contacted.

Fees and Financial Aid

No scholarship as the college is an anonymous. We have to pay the fee in one stroke. Yes we can to a loan from Bank but college not provide any type of scholarship and loan facilities. They gives deadline to you for submit the college fees.

Campus Life

The infrastructure is old in the college but it's definitely not a matter. As IMDR is the oldest B-school in Pune. IMDR is the part of DES Society which includes 5 colleges like BMCC, IMDR, FERGUSON, etc

Hostel Facilities

I had not opted the hostel but IMDR also provide the same. We can live in 2 hostel like, furguson college's hostel and BMCC's hostel with the distance of hardly 50 to 100 meters. The hostel are in the campus of college itself.

Hostel Fee: INR 35000 per year

Proud to be a part of claras college

Likes

The faculty members are highly qualified, approachable, and always willing to help with academic or research projects.
The campus infrastructure is excellent, featuring modern labs, a well-stocked library, and great sports facilities.
Placement opportunities are robust, with many top-tier companies visiting the campus for recruitment every year.

Dislikes

The hostel mess food lacks variety and quality, which is a frequent concern among resident students.
The placement department needs improvement as more core internship and job opportunities could be provided for undergraduate finance and BMS students
There is a lack of student-accessible Wi-Fi facilities across the campus premises, which makes online research difficult during college hours.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose the BMS (Bachelor of Management Studies) course primarily due to its highly comprehensive coverage of core business aspects specially human resources. The curriculum is well-structured to offer a deep understanding of corporate administration and strategic management, which strongly influenced my decision to enroll. Regarding the examination structure, semester exams are conducted systematically every six months, with internal assessments, assignments, and class presentations spread across the term. The timing is generally manageable, and the difficulty level ranges from moderate to high, effectively testing a student's analytical thinking and problem-solving capabilities rather than just memory recall.

Some departments here were really great like ETC and Mechanical with a unique culture going on
AIML and AIDS being new branches here are still doing their job very well for the students

Dislikes

The Students section not really tends to help ,as i saw many financially weak students facing the problem of 1 time payment fees and their request for part payments option is always rejected
Infrastructure is decent but in summer season the water coolers are just useless there ,no cooler will give you cold water

Course Curriculum Overview:

Some courses were to the point like IOT was well designed and DSA too with java programming side by side ,still as i said AIML is new branch and needs much enhancements ,the areas where they can improve was always practicals and labs those were always taken casual as i remember
