What Students Say

Likes

Faculties are highly qualified PHD scholars, they use cased based teaching approach.
Curriculum is updated frequently in lines to industry needs.
Active Clubs and committees helps students hone leadership qualities

Dislikes

Campus infrastructure is still developing.
Boys to girls ratio in current batch is 3:1, lacking holistic development across genders
Industry exposure is limited for BBA students in the first 3 years, compared to last 2 years of MBA.

Course Curriculum Overview

The IPM program helps in building strong analytical and communication skills. Exams held in mid and end term are moderately tough based on ranking among the students for grading. However live projects, case studies would help in initial years of the IPM program.

Class Size: 120Course Fees: INR 500000 per year

Placement Experience

IPM Students becomes eligible for placements in the 4th and 5th year of the program in MBA. Top firms like deloitte, HDFC, ICICI bank visit the campus for recruitment. Average package last year is 12 LPA for a batch size of more than 400 students across courses like MBA DBM, MBA HHM, MBA core.

Fees and Financial Aid

The integrated program in management at IIM bodhgaya is a 5 year integrated course where first 3 years are focused on foundational courses and the last 2 years on MBA program. The fees is 4.5 Lakhs per year for the first 3 years amounting to 13.5 Lakhs and 8.5 Lakhs per year for the next two years totalling to 17 Lakhs for MBA. The total fees adds up to 31 Lakhs approx. Mess charges addes extra, mostly totalying to 2.5 Lakhs for 5 years. while the fees is not discriminated among different categorys students, the students with financial difficulties can apply to various scholarships for financial relief. They also have an opportunity to apply for need based scholarships, which is provided by the college itself.

Campus Life

Campus life here is vibraant with various events of clubs and committes all are student run. Library is well stocked, classes are world class with good sports facilities among IIMs. Here we have a squash court, racing tracks as well.

Admission

I chose IIM BG over institutes like NMIMS, Symbyosis because of its IIM branding and strong industry connects along with MBA integration with BBA. Admissions are through entrence exam called JIPMAT. while there was IIM Jammu also in option, I chose Bodhgaya. Selections include gender and category weightage as well.

Faculty

Professors here are approachable and interactive. Courses here are semister based consisting of midterms, endterms and projects. Exams are moderatly tough, main focus is not on mugging up but on applications, but very few students fail as there is a ranking based grading system here in the college. My inclination is in finance domain and I can tell that majority of the professors here are great, the pool consists of both assistant and associate professors.

Night Life

Campus life is calm but social. Gym is open till midnight while cafes are open till 12 30 PM at night. The gradens inside the campus along with cafes are one of the top choices for people here for hanging out.

A Great Learning Experience at CIMAGE College.

Likes

The faculty members are supportive and use practical teaching methods that help students understand concepts better
The college provides a positive learning environment with seminars, workshops, and activities for overall personality development.
The placement cell offers training sessions and career guidance, which helps students prepare for internships and job opportunities.

Dislikes

The campus infrastructure can be improved by adding more recreational and open spaces for students.
The college should organize more industrial visits and increase interaction with industry professionals.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The BBA curriculum at CIMAGE College is relevant and well-structured. It covers core subjects like Marketing, Finance, Human Resource Management, and Entrepreneurship, which provide both theoretical and practical knowledge. Regular assignments, presentations, and projects help students develop communication and management skills. The semester exams and internal assessments are conducted on time, and the difficulty level is moderate. The curriculum prepares students for higher studies as well as real-world business challenges. However, adding more industry visits and practical workshops would make the course even better.

More than just a campus : MY IIM BODHGAYA HOURNEY

Likes

The overall course structure was very comprehensive and had a lot of courses that focused on holistic development rather than just academic development . some of the courses were dance , drama , wellbeing , mindfulness etc.
The college is backed by a strong culture promoting diversity , ingenuity and entrepreneurship . This not only impacts us for our professional development but also in our personal aims and goals
The faculty is very intellectual and supportive . They not only support in the courses but always extend a hand in our co co ciricuallars too

Dislikes

There is a strict attendance policy of 85% . This is proven to be very hard at times of small medical emergencies which cannot be backed by a strong medical history and certificates
Over the Recent times the college has admitted a lot of students . this is a very big imbalance between the resource on hand the ones to avail .
The administration and staff not the faculty is strict and stringent . there is little to no grace when you need help or guidance

Placement Experience:

The IPM students are eligible for placments along with the MBA Students only . There are no Summer Internships offered in our intital BBA term . However students are free to avail of internships opportunity on their own . The average palcments and median placements are around 13,00,00 .

Remarks:

The college has a big campus. The facilitiea are not upto the mark. There are some orthodox people in the college as well who closed our canteen giving the reason that boys and girls use to waste their time in the canteen. The management is also very poor as it does not take action or fulfill the needs of students timely.
