SYNOPSIS

Indian Institute of Management Amritsar

1. INTRODUCTION OF PROJECT
After India became independent in 1947, the Planning Commission was entrusted to oversee and
direct the development of the Nation. India has been growing rapidly since then, In the late 1950s
the Planning Commission started feeling that suitable Managers for the large number of Public
Sector Enterprises that were being established in India as a part of its Industrial policy. To solve
this problem, the Planning Commission in 1959 invited Professor George Robbins of UCLA to
help in setting up an All India Institute of Management Studies. Based on his recommendations,
the Indian government decided to set up two elite management institutes, named Indian Institutes
of Management. Calcutta and Ahmedabad were chosen as the locations for the two new institutes.

 The Indian Institute of Management (IIMs) are a group of autonomous institutes of

management education and research in India.

 The Indian institutes of management (IIMs) are a group of 20 Public, autonomous institutes
of management education and research in India.

 IIMs amongst some of the most prestigious institutions of India. As in today there exist 8 IIMs
in the country, which are as following:

  IIMs are declared as Institutions of National importance after the passage of Indian Institutes
of Management Act, 2017. With this act in place, IIMs leveraged up significantly to make
their autonomous decisions in their day-to-day operations. The act changed the governing
body from IIM council to IIM coordination forum. IIMs were granted much leeway to decide
their courses, fees and other related matters. The biggest benefit has been the ability of these
institutes to grant degrees to their graduates which many students and alumni had been
demanding for long.

 The IIMs mainly offer Postgraduate, Doctoral, and Executive education programs. Some
programs offered by all IIMs are similar; however, some IIMs offer unique programs for
specialized purposes.

 Various programs offered by IIMs are:

o Postgraduate education,
o Five-year Integrated Program,
o Doctoral education, Executive education,
o Armed Forces Program,
o Post Graduate Program in Public Policy Management,
o Post-Graduate Program in Software Enterprise Management
o Post Graduate Diploma in Human Resource Management
