ABOUT
IIM AMRITSAR
Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Amritsar is the
15th IIM set up by the Ministry of Human Resources
Development with the support of the Government of
Punjab. After the registration of IIM Amritsar Society on
July 27, 2015, the first batch for the class of 2015-17 was
enrolled in August 2015. Later, on October 14, 2015, IIM
Amritsar Board of Governance & Society was constituted.
In June 2016, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley laid down the
foundation stone for IIM Amritsar Campus. Currently, IIM
Amritsar is run under the mentorship of IIM Kozhikode,
the 5th oldest IIM and one of the premier management
institutes in the country.
Located in Amritsar, the land of the Golden Temple and
Wagah Border, the Institute benefits from the enriching
experience offered by this holy city. The Institute is
currently run in the Punjab Institute of Technology
Building, five km away from the railway station and
10 from the airport. Its permanent campus will be
constructed about 7 km from the ISBT and 8.5 km from
the railway station, making it easily accessible.
IIM Amritsar, at present, offers a Post Graduate Program in
Management. This program has been designed to provide
world-class management education so as to meet the
requirements of enterprises across sectors by producing
highly insightful management professionals. The Institute
is committed to imparting strong educational foundations
and values in the hearts, thoughts and actions of the
future managers. Owing to its indefatigable allegiance
to provide exemplary education, IIM Amritsar has
established itself as the vanguard of quality education
and learning in a short span of time.
The Institute follows the same pedagogy as practiced
by the other members of the prestigious IIM fraternity.
With the various facilities like state-of-the-art IT-
enabled classrooms, a digital library giving access to
the most relevant national and international business
and management journals, auditorium, student activity
room, indoor & outdoor sports facilities, gymnasium,
spacious hostel rooms, etc., IIM Amritsar provides a
nurturing environment for its students to learn and grow.
IIM Amritsar also focuses on creating an entrepreneurial
culture, where the students and faculty work together “to
create best enterprising solutions.”
Students learn and absorb from qualified faculty and
industry experts, who are highly experienced in their
field. For all round growth and development into a
conscientious manager, students also participate in
clubs and committees’ activities. The tireless efforts of
our students result in their winning many corporate and
B-school competitions and, ultimately, their bagging
promising career opportunities. In a true sense, “IIM
Amritsar is the playground for the dreams to nurture,
personalities to flourish and careers to change the world.”
