Since IIM Trichy is a residential campus, all students are required to stay in the hostel. The hostel life plays a significant role in the residents. The administration has made sure that the students are most comfortable on the facilities and amenities available to them. Each student is given a single occupancy room to respect the privacy of the students. The learnings in the hostel are more significant than the classroom lessons.
Make A Difference (MAD)
The Institute has given us an opportunity to work on a social project that will help in the local community. MAD is a programme where students are asked to take a social problem that is present in the locality within a radius of 50 km and make a contribution to them. It has been made as a prerequisite for graduation from the institute. MAD is an attempt by the Institute to make its students as responsible citizens. We have to give back to the society what we have taken from it.
The reinvention of life in nature
The campus has two lakes which increase the aesthetic value as well as the ecological value the campus. The area surrounding the college has a lot of lakes, but they have depleted significantly due to various reasons such deficient rains, diversion of the water for other purposes and pollution as well. As a measure to protect the lake ecology the lakes on the campus will be maintained and promote the natural diversity in the college. The campus has a 2 MW solar power plant making the campus self-sufficient in terms of power requirement. It is an initiative by the management to contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gases and reduce global warming. These are some of the activities that I consider that are unique and distinguished from the other management institutes. In the coming years, IIM Trichy has a lot to offer to the students as well as the society as a whole.
Which ABG company would you want to work for and why?
The ABG company I would like to work with is Novelis Inc. Being the world’s premium producer of rolled aluminium for beverage cans and automotive industry, the company is at the top of the pyramid. The company’s commitment to the sustainability is highly admirable. Since aluminium can be recycled any number of times without losing its properties, it is more profitable for the company to recycle and reuse. If given an opportunity I can add value to the management of the company to increase its efficiency and profitability of the company.
