I have many friends studying at IIPM and they regret the day the entered. They have informed me that all the positive reports written here on mouthshut are by iipm staff. No student would ever say anything positive about IIPM!!!
Below is a part of an eyeopening report by Jam Magazine of Mumbai. The full report is on https://iipm.blogspot.com
IIPM claims all these rankings. Even above IIMs.
A brief visit to the webpage of the list on https://indiabschools.com (a website run by C fore, the research agency which put together the list for Outlook) will give you this information - “IIPM has been removed from ranking as we received serious complaints about the veracity of information given by them.”
So how can IIPM continue using these rankings, AFTER they’ve been removed from them? We asked Premchand Palety, CEO, C Fore and this is what he said,
Most of their (IIPM’s) advertisements are false and overstate facts. The action has to be taken by some regulatory body related to false advertisements.”
THE CAMPUS:“The 8 Wi-Fi IIPM Towers in India which are modern architectural wonders equipped with air-conditioned classrooms, auditoriums huge state-of-the-art computer dromes and well stocked libraries. The IIPM campus gives students a completely international feel with its beautifully landscaped surroundings, an unique blend of old English architecture with modern exteriors and has facilities like swimming pool, mini golf, billiards, etc.”We visited IIPM’s Mumbai campus in Bandra, posing as prospective students. The ‘campus’ is a four-storied building, with some parking area around it. There is a small ‘canteen’ section that can seat, at the most, around 10 students. We entered the air conditioned reception area that was bustling with activity in the limited space available. But you’re left wondering - where in this one tiny building can they be hiding that swimming pool they promised in the ads?
We also checked out the campus in Delhi’s Qutab Institutional Area. There too we couldn’t find a swimming pool, mini golf course or billiards table. Again, there wasn’t any “old English architecture”. The building tower resembled any other office complex in Delhi. There was no Wi-Fi on campus, or in the library. The librarian didn’t even know what Wi-Fi was!However, there is ONE campus for second year students in Delhi’s Chhatarpur area which has a swimming pool.
THE FEES:“FREE study tour to EUROPE for 2 weeks inclusive of industry visits for all IIPM, India students.”“FREE LAPTOPS for all IIPM, India students.”At what price does this education come for? Well it depends on what year you took it. MBA students of batch ‘02-04 paid Rs 2.75 lakh as fees. Students who will pass out in 2006 paid Rs 4.25 lakh.Those joining the batch 2005-07) will pay Rs 4.86 lakh. Students of the combined BBS/MBA program pay Rs 7.5 lakhs for a combined three year programme. These are the students who go to Europe on the free study tour. MBA students have to pay an additional Rs 50, 000.Incidentally, it is only from this year on that students will be provided free laptops.
THE FACULTY:“First time ever in the world, be taught by professors from Harvard, Columbia, Yale, Insead... only at IIPM.”
Just to make sure, we asked students from IIPM’s Mumbai campus who had passed out already, AND those who are currently taking the MBA program. NONE of them have attended lecturers by professors from foreign universities. From what we gather though, the students seem satisfied with the college’s permanent teaching
