Management Education in India

Management studies is a one of the much sought-after fields for Indian graduates. Today, the best and brightest students want to study management because it is a sure way to well-paid jobs with great prospects for advancement. The management schools constitute the base for the thousands of managers in Indian enterprises who need grounding to make an early and positive contribution as managers.

But management schools often face challenges in providing able recruits to companies that need them the most. Many of the management schools have minimal faculty, most of whom have little practical experience in management and who undertake little research of decent quality. That’s why people look for the best business management institute to get the MBA or higher degree.

The Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) are central government-owned-public business schools for management offering undergraduate, postgraduate, doctoral and executive programs along with some additional courses in the field of business administration. The IIMs were established to cater the need of quality business management professionals in the emerging India.

IIMs were declared institutions of national importance by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) in 2017. There are 20 IIMs in India. IIM Ahmedabad, established in 1961, is the oldest business school in India whereas IIM Jammu is the youngest, established in 2016. All the 20 IIMs offer MBA courses; some of them offer EPGP, FPM, MPD and Integrate MBA courses.

The full time Master of Business Administration (MBA) programs, are the flagship programs across all IIMs. The full time MBA degree is offered as a two-year Post Graduate Program in Management (PGP) or the one-year global MBA.

Apart from the 20 premier business schools, there are many other reputed business management institutes across India, which provide high standard management education in India. Browse the map above to check the location and other details of business management colleges in India.
