XIMB is one the top B schools in India and MBA in Business Management is its flagship course. Whether you should join it or not is your call depending on your inclinations and preferences. However, my answer entails various reasons why one must consider XIMB.

  • XIMB has a 31-year-long legacy which has resulted in its rich lineage, great faculty members, and an elaborate alumni base. 
  • The institute is known for its research culture and development activities on a regular basis in collaboration with the government.
  • XIMB is granted the South Asian Quality Assurance Systems (SAQS) accreditation by the Association of Management Development Institutions in South Asia (AMDISA) and the NBA Accreditation by the National Board of Accreditation for a period of 5 years for PGDM.
  • Unlike most B Schools it offers an MBA degree rather than a PGDM Diploma. An MBA gives a holistic view of the program while a PGDM focuses on a specific specialization.
  • XIMB also offers international exchange of students not only through the college but also through student-driven committees.
  • The faculty at XIMB are experts in their respective fields and have immense industry experience which is reflected in their pedagogy.
  • In the second year, you get an opportunity to do a double major, major plus minor in whichever fields (i.e. Marketing, Finance, operations, etc) we would like to gain knowledge and experience in. This gives us an opportunity to gain cross-functional knowledge and explore beyond our comfort zone, a quality required in the corporate world. 
  • XIMB encourages extra-curricular/ co-curricular activities combining activities and academics which helps you to learn how to become a better manager and put your theoretical knowledge to the test. 
  • Business seminars and talks hosted by industry leaders from every field are common in XIMB. These business talks help the students increase their practical knowledge with quality industry exposure. 
  • XIMB holds a strong alumni base with alumni at top positions in various companies. 
  • XIMB gives due importance to academics and learning through various projects, competitions, case studies, live projects, and faculty projects. 
  • The students are constantly evaluated through quizzes and assignments to keep them on their toes. This helps them adjust to the hectic schedule they face in the corporate world. 

Overall, the campus life at XIMB is unique and complete as it is a B-School that is forever awake.
