INDIAN INSTITUE OF MANAGEMENT, AHMEDABAD

Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIMA), was established in 1961, as an autonomous institution by the Govt. of India in collaboration with the Govt. of Gujarat and Indian Industry. Dr. Vikram Sarabhai, a noted scientist and industrialist, other Ahmedabad-based industrialists (led by Mr. Kasturbhai Lalbhai), and the Govt. of Gujarat played a major role in the creation of the Institute.
Rated as India’s best and Asia’s foremost business school, IIMA continues to be ranked as one of the finest institutions in the world having an academic rigour that matches the top league. IIMA became the first Business School in India to receive the EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System) accreditation by the European Foundation for Management Development which has subsequently been renewed in 2012. With a distinguished faculty, an exceptional student- faculty ratio, and a 100-acre world class campus conducive to continuous learning, IIMA is an Institute that sets international standards in the field of management education.
