Which is better, IIM Kozhikode or IIM Udaipur?
It is true that, at the moment, IIM Kozhikode is regarded as being a more powerful institution than IIM Udaipur. This is most likely due to the fact that IIM Kozhikode has been in operation for a longer period of time and has had more time to build its reputation and resources. However, it is important to note that this comparison is not entirely fair because IIM Udaipur is a relatively new institution with less time to develop than IIM Kozhikode.
In the long run, things could change and IIM Udaipur could eventually compete with IIM Kozhikode on a level playing field. This would almost certainly necessitate IIM Udaipur continuing to invest in its resources and reputation, while also ensuring that IIM Kozhikode does not continue to outpace it. Furthermore, it would necessitate IIM Kozhikode to slip from its position of relative strength, which is not guaranteed.
It is important to note that when comparing institutions, it is important to consider more than just their reputation or past performance. Other factors to consider include location, campus culture, industry connections, and the quality of faculty and students. Finally, it is up to each student to determine which institution is the best fit for them.
