Diversity At Its Best - IIM Raipur

Diversity At Its Best - IIM Raipur

After putting up the hard work for 8 months and managing studies along with my job, finally, the CAT results were announced. I had converted most of the 2nd gen IIMs and all baby IIMs. It was a very proud moment as no one in my family or distant relatives (that I know of) had studied in an IIM and personally it was a dream come true for me.

The question of uniqueness of any institution is something which is strongly dependent on the parameters which one expects from that institution. I would love to share my experience at IIM Raipur.

Choosing an MBA college can be one of the toughest decisions in one’s life until and unless you’re eligible enough for IIM A, B or C. Leaving the top 6 IIMs, the newer ones are having a neck to neck fight for being crowned as the best. I converted IIM Ranchi, IIM Kashipur and IIM Raipur on the first list. I was waitlisted in IIM Udaipur and IIM Indore, both of which seemed a distant dream. Talking about the ones I rejected, Kashipur and Ranchi, I had very little to choose from. I did not have the luxury of giving CAT 2018. Kashipur being near to Delhi NCR becomes the hot favorite of students of North India, also complemented by its location. Similar is the situation for Ranchi. I was very much tempted to join Kashipur so that I can be near to my family and friends. I wanted to be in an institute that can provide me the stage or Launchpad to announce myself to the world.

The Day Professor Became A Student - IIM Raipur

At 9.25 A.M., I entered my classroom, Dronacharya Hall, Academic Block, Indian Institute of Management Raipur. It was my first B-school class out of the many more to follow. The boys were all dressed up in formals and most important were clean shaved – the rule to which every guy in IIM Raipur has to adhere to. The girls were in their traditional attire. There were around 40 students in the classroom out of the 80 supposedly in attendance roll. More and more heads joined in as every minute passed by. I took a seat in the 2nd row to have a good view of the class and relaxed.

Indian Institute of Management (IIM) has been set up by the Government of India, Ministry of Human Resource Development in 2010 at Raipur, the capital of Chhattisgarh. Chhattisgarh is one of the fastest growing states of India with its rich mineral, forest, natural and local resources. Currently, IIM Raipur is situated in Sejbahar, sharing its campus with two other prestigious institutes which are IIT Bhilai and Government Engineering College, Raipur. It is quite a big campus, therefore all the three institutes are functioning well without causing any problem or hindrance in academic and other activities to any of the institutes. It’s been two weeks since I am here at the campus and the weather here at Sejbahar is very pleasing. As the campus is situated in the outskirts of the city, the traffic and pollution level here at Sejbahar are quite low which makes the environment more peaceful and relaxing at the campus. Another uniqueness of the campus is that we at IIM Raipur has hostel facility in the Academic Building itself, therefore, it is very convenient for us to get up and reach the classroom within a minute. Also, everybody gets individual attention from the faculty so whenever a student feels any difficulty in any subjects Professors are effectively receptive for any uncertainty, for any doubt at any time as every professor know every student singularly. There is zero communication gap between students and the administration of the institute which is a very conducive environment for any student to self-explore himself/herself.

I was very enthusiastic and equally excited when I received an offer letter from the institute which is situated in the heart of craggy mountains and lush greenery all over. Yes, IIM Udaipur was calling me! Now I am floating in a boat of dilemma whether I should be happy, or I should be disappointed by the fact that my one year in this beautiful campus has already passed.
