IIM Kashipur is the first among all the six new IIMs to move to its fully functional permanent campus. The campus has been designed by leading designer firm Acorp (based out of Montreal, Canada) and is 200 acres of sheer brilliance.
Kashipur is located in one of the densest Industrial Hubs of the country. The Kashipur - Rudrapur belt has a huge number of industries and IIM Kashipur has many collaborations with the industries. The Lean Cell of IIM Kashipur has been appreciated a lot and has garnered a lot of praise from the industry.
Gurgaon and Delhi are a four-hour drive from Kashipur and Kashipur is the perfect place for any corporate to come over, interact with some lively students and spend some time in the beauty of nature before going back. (I am quoting what a few corporate leaders told me, in my interactions with them.). We even have a tie up with Jim Corbett national park for an exclusive jungle safari for these corporates
Kashipur is the touch down point for anyone going to the world famous Jim Corbett National Park. It is just about 40 km from Kashipur and we the students of IIM Kashipur, frequent the place on our cycles. Living and studying in the laps of mother nature is a gift few have. The natural beauty of this place is one thing that has made me breathless on many occasions. I came here to study management and I got a lot more than that. These facets of the place are just the tip of the iceberg. This album is just the beginning, as I record my stay, over the year, in this place I now call home (Kashipur). "Jim Corbett National Park is the oldest national park in India and was established in 1936 as Hailey National Park to protect the endangered Bengal tiger.
WHICH ABG COMPANY WOULD ONE WANT TO WORK FOR AND WHY?
I would want to work for ABG Infralogistics Limited. I have always been an operations enthusiast. Being a graduate in mechanical engineering, I took operations as majors here at IIM Kashipur. I did my summer internship in operations as well, where I learnt about the quality and safety issues in practical. I would want to apply the knowledge that I have gained so far at a company that could provide me more opportunities to learn and apply.
