Placements: Students commence their placements at IIM Kozhikode during their final year. The campus drives are attended by approximately 125 companies, including consulting giants such as BCG, Brains, and Accenture, as well as leading companies in the BFSI, FMCG, and IT sectors (Nestled, HUL, Microsoft, and Amazon). Many of these companies conduct frequent visits. The highest package offered last year was 65 LPA, and the average is 28 LPA. The summer internship program is a critical component of the curriculum, during which numerous companies provide internships. Good internships are secured by nearly all students. The majority of apprenticeships are offered by Deloitte.

Infrastructure: The connectivity between the institute and the metropolis is inadequate. The majority of the days are characterised by high humidity. The institute extends invitations to distinguished individuals, including Philip Kotlar, to deliver lectures on marketing. Additionally, Kimar Varun and Ankit Tiwari are being extended invitations. The college provides books and course packets as part of the program. The auditorium seating is comfortable, and all classrooms are equipped with air conditioning and Wi-Fi. There are numerous squash, table tennis, basketball, and badminton courts on the campus. A 25-meter swimming pool, 11 volleyball courts, 1 football court, and a few cricket wickets are available. Students have access to a shared exercise. Single, double, and triple-occupancy accommodations are present in hostels, and they are equipped with air conditioning and attached bathrooms. Food practices are challenging for me, as I am from Maharashtra.

Faculty: The faculty at IIM possess exceptional subject knowledge, the highest educational degrees, and a wealth of experience. IIM is undoubtedly the most exceptional management institute in India; its curriculum is entirely consistent with the most recent technologies and industries. Rather than employing individuals, they generate entrepreneurs. Quizzes and case studies facilitate semesters; however, examinations are exceedingly challenging.
