UNIQUE

YOUnique
Unique is clichd. Through rank use of the term, it is now commonplace. But unique is not just a
word. Actions...actions define the truly unique.
XISS, Ranchi believes in YOUnique actions - actions that redirect the future, add value to the society
and build characters rooted to their base. Most importantly these actions start with YOU.

Vision
To foster a just, humane and equitable society where
the underprivileged (the poor and the oppressed)
assume their rightful place along with being a centre
par excellence in the country, imparting value driven
management and development education.

Mission
XISS aims to be a top management school and
develop committed, down to earth, sensitive
professionals, who work with and for others. It also
resolutes to work towards the empowerment of the
deprived so that they shape their own destiny. XISS
intents to be a lead agency for NGO capacity building,
sustainable development, research and consultancy.

Rome. A new religious order came into effect in the
Catholic Church, one that would spread throughout
the world and have profound effects on many lives.
While Jesuits were opening schools and colleges
across Europe (hence nicknamed as the schoolmasters
of Europe) Francis Xavier, a close friend of Ignatius
came to Goa in 1542 and started many schools.
Over the years many of them would take Xavier as

From an extension center of St. Xaviers College,

Ranchi, to becoming one of the Indias most reputed
educational institutions, the journey for XISS has all
along been guided by the needs and aspirations of
the region in which it operates. Education at XISS
means sensitizing the students with appropriate values,
attitudes and critical thinking tools that set them apart
as Professionals with a Difference. What started 58
years ago as a center of social service founded by
the Society of Jesus, has today grown into a reputed
business school.

Making of the XISS Brand :

Journey Continues...
...Towards Excellence

Social Service Field Work

During the first year of academics, teams of students are formed which are then assigned to various
organisations involved in rigoruous Social Work. These organizations work to brighten up the lives of
underprivileged children, including the physically challenged, the mentally challenged and the deprived
village folk. Through such exercise we seek to:
Understand human values and social doctrine of society and culture
Understand and exercise the social responsibility beyond professional careers
Augment the momentum of Social Work and Human Skills

Industrial Tours and Rural Camps

The Industrial Tours, an imperative part of the curriculum at XISS is instrumental in bridging the gap
between class room teaching and the real time business world. It maneuvers the idea that students must
know practical side of everything. Not only these camps provide academic revelation, but also expose
students to different places letting them interact with the industrial population directly.
Rural Camps The mode of interaction with the rural people has undergone sea change on the basis of
our firm conviction that the situation demands the Normal tendency to be reversed. In other words, the
villagers are no longer the source where the information is to be extracted from. On the contrary, they are to
be involved in the process in such a way that their ideas, their analysis, choice and priorities, which really
count, can be elicited. It is an understanding and seeing the situation through the eyes of the villagers, the
insider and the men who are truly involved. Rural Camp has a definite purpose and the outcome of this
field activity is not only an in-depth understanding of the interaction between different social groups but
also an action plan either for initiating a concrete project or for monitoring development action.

Seminars and Conferences

The students organize various seminars, workshops and conferences every year. These academic as well
as nonacademic seminars, workshops and conferences on the one hand expose them to international and
national experts.
On the other hand they acquire planning, organizing and execution experience. Students also participate in
various such events organized by other institutions. They write and present articles and research papers in
these events.

UNIVERSAL

YOUniversal
Universal. That is unchanged everywhere and at all times. It is extensive, engaging and most
importantly...perennial.

Excellence never goes out of fashion. It is universal. The students of XISS are drilled to face any
challenges with a skill set that holds good anywhere in the corporate realm. Truly YOUniversal.

Campus Placement
Programme
At XISS we believe in nurturing the talent and
making them Ready for the real world. The
Placement Cell helps connect the Organizations
with the talent at the Institute. We have tried to
keep the entire campus placement process simple
and convenient to all.

The Placement Cell

First Phase

18th Nov to 5th Dec 2013

Second Phase

The campus placement of the students of XISS

is coordinated by the Central Placement Cell
headed by Chief Coordinator. It works in unison
with Departmental Placement Cells, constituted of
students. The Departmental Placement Cells are
guided by senior faculty members from respective
departments.

8th Jan to 15th Feb 2014

Students will be ready to join from April 2014

29

The process for the convenience of the prospective employers, the Campus
Placement Programme is detailed below:
Campus Placement commences from 18th November and finishes on 5th
December 2013 in the first phase. The second phase commences from 8th
January 2014. Interested organizations are requested to inform in advance
the date on which they wish to visit XISS for campus placement. They are
also requested to indicate the facilities required for the selection procedure,
viz. accommodation/transport facilities and bookings, etc.
On receiving communication from the interested organizations the Placement
Cell will allocate a date for PPT and the recruitment process. Group
Discussions, Interviews and other methods of selection adopted by the
organization are conducted in the campus. If required, students may be
called for final interviews at the companys expense to its headquarters.
The institute strictly follows One Student - One Offer policy. The candidates
placed in one organization are not allowed to be the part of the placement
activity for any other organization. If any student gets enlisted in more than
one organization then the organization coming up with the final list first, has
the opportunity to take that student in their organization.
On confirming final selection, the appointment letter issued by the
organization is sent to the candidate through the Placement Cell.

Pre - Placement Talk (PPT) & Selection Process

All the companies are expected to deliver a Pre- Placement Presentation to the
students where all relevant information about the job may be discussed. If such
a presentation is not possible on the part of any company, then it is requested
to send all relevant details making use of the Permanent Placement Reply
Format in advance to the Placement Co-ordinator. PPTs can also be held by the
company just prior to the commencement of the Campus Placement Programme
at the Institute.

Date of Joining
The students will complete their entire academic obligation by end of March
2014. They will be ready to join the organizations by Mid of April 2014.
Students are allowed to join the organization only after completion of the
program.

Campus on Wheels
In the last few years, though interested to recruit from the Institute, some
organizations have not been able to come down to the campus due to
certain unavoidable reasons. With a view to accommodate the request of
such organizations, the Institute has introduced Campus on Wheels. The
organizations interested in recruiting through Campus on Wheels should send
back the response form, in the specified format. They should also attach the
relevant information about the job along with the form.
