IIM Kashipur was established in 2011 and since then IIM Kashipur has proved itself as the leading B-School and is now among the top 20 B-Schools in India. The new campus of IIM Kashipur is eco friendly and is surrounded by nature.
The following reasons led me to choose IIM Kashipur Campus.

It is closest to the nature, which teaches us to adjust in extreme conditions.
