IRMASAT 2024

Institute of Rural Management Anand (IRMA)



What is IRMASAT?

  • The Institute of Rural Management Anand administers the IRMASAT, often known as the IRMA Social Awareness Test (IRMA). Admission to the Post Graduate Diploma in Rural Management (PGDRM) and Fellow Programme in Rural Management is based on IRMASAT scores (FPRM). The IRMASAT 2023 examination is typically administered using a computer. CAT/XAT scores are used to determine admission to the PGDRM programme at IRMA. Application submission, the Written Ability Test (WAT), and a personal interview make up the admissions procedure (PI). On the IRMA's official website, the application form for the IRMASAT 2023 will be accessible.
  •  
  • On two calls, the IRMA will shortlist potential applicants for admissions:
  •  
  • • Merit-based Calls: For applicants who took the CAT 2022 or XAT 2023, the selection committee will determine the category-wise cutoff.
  • Profile-cum-merit based Calls:

For profile-based calls, candidates who meet the following requirements will be shortlisted:

• A degree from a reputable university or college in agribusiness packaging and processing, agriculture, agriculture engineering, cooperatives connected to agriculture, dairy technology, fisheries, food processing, food science, food technology, forestry, horticulture, or veterinary medicine.

• Work experience in the fields of development, social impact, livelihoods, advocacy, policy, and agriculture and related industries.
