Director, IIM Udaipur

Over more than half a century the Indian Institutes of Management have established an enviable record of quality and accomplishment. Since our inception, IIM Udaipur has built on this proud legacy and at the same time taken advantage of the opportunity to innovate and bring a unique perspective to all our activities.

IIM Udaipur recently completed a decade of its establishment. It all started with a belief to innovate and bring quality to everything that IIM Udaipur did. IIMU aspires to take its place among world-class management schools creating global knowledge by achieving significant milestones. In this, IIMU made remarkable progress hallmarked by gaining AACSB accreditation in November 2018 (in merely eight years of its establishment). IIMU is only the third IIM in the prestigious rankings holding a spot in the Top 100 in FT Masters in Management 2021 Global Ranking for its two-year MBA program for the third consecutive year along with IIM Ahmedabad and IIM Bangalore. The institute was also listed in the prestigious Masters in Management (MIM) QS World University Rankings 2022 for the third consecutive year. IIM Udaipur is the youngest B-school globally along with the University of Sydney Business School to be listed in the QS 2022 MIM Rankings. IIMU is now the youngest B-school in the world on both these rankings. These accreditations and recognitions make us confident that IIMU is well on its way of becoming a globally recognized management institute by 2030 as per our shared vision.

The Vision 2030 of IIMU focuses on two core areas- high-quality research and student transformation. The institute aims to set a new benchmark in management education by combining excellence in both teaching and research. With the untiring efforts of our accomplished faculty, our talented students, and exceptional alumni, we believe we have been able to make rapid progress on our path of continuous growth and innovation. IIMU is committed to nurturing leaders and entrepreneurs who will empower their organizations in the global economy. At the same time, well rooted in the noble tradition of our core values, the Institute has phenomenally become one of the best choices for management aspirants. An underlying priority is to instill in our students a sense of commitment as managers to have a socially responsible impact; to give them an understanding of how difficult and challenging this often can be; and to expand their knowledge and their intellectual horizons so they emerge transformed and prepared to have an impact on the world of business and society at large. We have consciously created a culture that values collegiality and accessibility, with open doors at all levels.

Based on our 300-acre campus, IIMU boasts of state of the art classrooms and technology infrastructure that is among the best at any B-school in India. The master plan for IIM Udaipur’s campus has been awarded GRIHA’s 5 Star LD rating which is the highest level of rating for large developments.

On the bedrock of our core values, we will continue to scale up over the next decade to build a management institute of international repute.
