Yes, there indeed is a certain level of bias that IPM students face during the placement process. But the reason is well justified. Being a newly established course, IPM lacks the certainty of success. The industries are only gradually developing their trust towards this course over the years. So the recruiters are still a bit hesitant in investing in an IPM student.
But if you look at the figures, you can see that the course has been gaining trust and climbing the ladder drastically over the past few years. Also, I don’t think it’s justifiable to draw a comparison between a 7-year-old program that has already been recognized (PGP) to a newly established course (IPM).
People usually compare these 2 programs because they see IPM as a means to join IIM by escaping CAT. This is not the case at all. IPM is much more than that. It needs no comparison to any other program. It is a full-fledged integrated course that is way ahead of other undergrad or integrated courses across the nation both in terms of the kind of education it offers and the placements.

SSIM is one of the premier B-schools in Hyderabad, which has over 30+ years of legacy and 5000+ alumni. Currently, I am in my 2nd year of the PGDM TPS program. SSIM helped me to become a corporate-ready individual by the end of 1st year itself which helped me to qualify for an internship at Deloitte and receive a Pre-placement Offer (PPO) just after the completion of my 1st year of PGDM.
SSIM Curriculum includes managerial competency development courses such as Experiential Learning, Book review sessions, Social projects, and Company Review Sessions to name a few. In our Experiential Learning Project during Term 1 we visited a manufacturing company. This was my first exposure to a corporate which helped me to understand how corporates function, get acquainted with the corporate culture, allocation and optimum utilization of resources, and most importantly corporates’ expectations of management graduates.
SSIM will nurture and groom students for long-term professional careers along with the vision of making socially responsible business leaders. Wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
