Hi puys,

I am starting this thread to discuss about the pgp that IIM Indore is going to start this year in Ras Al Khaimah (UAE). The programme is going to be conducted by IIM Indore, only the campus will be at RAK. After completion of the programme the students will be given the alumni status of IIM Indore. Here's the link that gives details about this programme.

Indian Institute of Management Indore - PGP RAK UAE

well....i don't know about placements since they have not given anything regarding it....... but then we would be student of iim indore, since we will be given its alumni status....... also the exams will be conducted by iim indore...... even the fees will be payable to iim indore....... so according to me rak will be just another campus of iim-i with all other things being same as the main campus....

I don't know why there is just one reply on this thread. either people are not interested in this course or they don't know about it.......


anyways, this what i came across when searching for information about rak-uae

Gulf, the new education hub -Gulf-Swiss institute EPFL-International Academic City-Dubai-Surbhi Bhatia-Proyashi Barua

and also this one wherein there is also an interview of the sheikh of rak

I don't know about the placement prospects.....

I had called IIM Indore's office in the morning...... they told me to ask my queries in mail...... I had already sent them mail yesterday... but they asked me to send mail again which i did.....

Also I had told my friend to ask his uncle ( who stays in dubai) about RAK.... he has replied me following message

As compared to Dubai, RAK is very cheap.. Avg min expenditure bol nahi sakte..depend karta hai...
Medical / Transport and political situation all okay.. Not to worry..

RAK to Dubai is like what Kalyan is to South Bombay.. Dubai guys call it a village.. Lol..


for more information go to RAKpedia, Ras Al Khaimah, arabic tourism, emirates, arabic, rak, uae - RAKpedia - Guide to Ras Al Khaimah


well from above reply my view is that RAK is an upcoming city and it will take time to reach the development that Dubai has achieved over the years...... Anyways am going to apply for the interview....... just waiting for the reply mail from IIM Indore.....

I had called IIM I admission department regarding this and they were hardly interested in answering my queries , all they said was to mail my queries.

I doubt is this course worth spending 20K US$ just tuition fees , + Living & Traveling expenses which is not included and not even provided. (They dont even have a campus)

I guess IIM wants to establish overseas campus same way LBS did , but it will take some time.

I also got same reply....... when i told him that i had some queries regarding this programme, he told me to send a mail...... when i said that i had already sent them a mail, he told me send mail again..... and now even after sending mail twice I haven't received any reply....... tomorrow am again going to call them...... let's see what reply do they give......


by the way in FAQ they have given that hostel and transport facilities will be provided at extra costs..... hostel rent has been given as 250$ per month........

please help if anyone can whether to join or not if selected obviouslyy the name is IIM but still its first year....

nd apart frm evrythn thr is nuthn clear bout d placements!!!!

moreover they are answering queries on phone and not replying to mail........so i guess it wud b better if we wait untill monday before applying........let's see whether they reply to mail or not...... also do call office tomorrow and ask them whatever doubts you have........

one more question that i have is y are we supposed to pay 40$ for interview..... i can understand those who are giving bat they paying exam fee.......... but when iim indore itself is conducting interview and when conducting interview for main campus they didn't ask for any application processing fee.......... y now??? :-(
