The Indian Institute of Management Kashipur is set up with the mission to drive academic excellence using innovative teaching methods, promoting research and practice of sustainable leadership. The institute commenced operations in July 2011 with a vision to become, over the next 10 years, one of the top business schools in India developing leaders who can perform globally. The fraternity diligently follows the core values of mutual respect, lifelong learning, the pursuit of excellence, transparency, and integrity. The flagship programmes of the institute are Master of Business Administration (MBA) and Master of Business Administration (Analytics) which are full time, two-year residential programmes. The rigorous educational curriculum tries to ingrain an enthusiasm for learning and the capacity to apply that information to real-life scenarios. The programme lays accentuation on all-round personality. The institute also offers a two-year weekend Executive Master in Business Administration (MBA-WX) for working executives. Doctoral Programme – PhD and Executive Fellow Programme (EFPM) are the two doctoral programmes launched in 2015 and 2014 respectively. The faculty at IIM Kashipur represents one of the best mixes of academic and industrial experiences. The 200-acre campus spreads loudness and cheers in the serene town of Kashipur, nested in the lap of Himalayas. The vibrant youth converging from across the country has lent life to and energized the beautiful campus. The institute brags of being situated in one of the densest industrialised districts in the nation with more than 180 ventures that have set up their plants in and around the region. This places the institution at a vantage moment when it comes to ‘Learning by Doing' through regular industry interaction and live projects.
