IIMs- Now beyond Management

“IIM stands for Indian Institutes of Management, a set of famous, government-run management universities across India, noted for providing high-quality management education such as MBA, PhD, and executive courses. Now, these IIMs are going beyond management studies. While most IIMs have long offered an integrated five-year programme in Management (IPM), some, like Bangalore and Kozhikode, have lately transitioned to standalone undergraduate courses, some of which are also in diverse areas outside management education.

Now, the  IIM-Mumbai’s new Undergraduate aims to combine management education with emerging technologies, addressing industry needs in areas such as IoT, blockchain, generative AI, machine learning, and data sciences, and will be offered in collaboration with leading automation and hyper automation industries, according to director Manoj Tiwari, who describes it as a “futuristic and game-changing” course. “The idea is to create a talent pool that will help bridge the gap between hard and soft technologies that are required for complex business situations in corporates and industries,” according to Tiwari.
