Welcome to Paradise! - The IIM Sirmaur Campus

Indian Institute of Management Sirmaur is the place which systematically unwraps the unfounded concerns of the aspirants once they set foot in the campus and lets one explore his tale of dormant affinity. The campus is situated in the midst of a paradise where mountains are bending in and a river cutting through the valleys nearby, often bring out the poet, photographer, explorer and an admirer in its students. After all, it’s often told when men and mountains meet great things happen. The students in the campus are fortunate enough to have not only humans but dogs and puppies as their companions too. It is the garden of Eden for animal lovers.

The campus undoubtedly is in a nascent stage but the efforts put in by the administration, faculties and students reveal the aspirations each holds in their hearts and the unparalleled joy one receives even in the minuscule improvement it (IIM) achieves towards glory. One among the achievements is IIM Sirmaur’s continual efforts to build industrial relations by organising various summits. It has started bearing results in the favour of the students. Visiting those industries as a part of learning has become the curriculum now. The strategic location of IIM Sirmaur in one of the pharmaceutical manufacturing hubs in India has been of great many help in its accomplishments.

The visiting faculties of IIM Sirmaur are worth a mention. They are amongst the best in the nation. Each one of them is a scholar in their own field and what they have to offer in the classroom can’t be certainly found in Google. What among characterises them uniquely is their ability to draw inquisitiveness out of you. The academic rigour of IIM Sirmaur is like in any other IIMs and will certainly earn its name one day. It helps build character and when one reflects back will certainly feel grateful.

The business world does heavily rely on relationships. IIM Sirmaur has been a pioneer to teach its students the value of relationships. IIM Sirmaur’s campus with its low population of students helps build long-lasting relationships with each and every student.

Being a new IIM, IIM Sirmaur’s rise against all the prejudice and struggle will surely instil this important attribute of display of courage during adversity among its students.

Which ABG company would I want to work for and why?

I would love to work for Aditya Birla Payment bank in an operation role. Comparative to other companies under Aditya Birla Group this company is newer one. Payment Bank is a highly innovative company under this group and as it is in initial stage there is a lot of scope of innovation in the product. As a creative mind I would love to be a part of Operation and product team where I can use my creativity to make banking and financial services available to every citizen of the country. Operations is an important part of payment division of ABG and being a operation enthusiast I will strive to improve the operation of the Payment bank.
