Education
Indian Institute of Management (IIM) has been set up by the Government of India, Ministry of Human Resource Development (now known as Ministry of Education) in 2010 at Raipur, the capital of Chhattisgarh. Chhattisgarh is one of the fastest growing states of India with its rich mineral, forest, natural and local resources.
The Institute believes in preparing ethical leaders who are not only committed to business, commerce and industry but are also socially conscious towards their contribution in nation building and bring in name for the country globally. The institute is abuzz with activities carried by the student clubs which are now expanding their scope of activity and bringing luminaries from the Corporate.
The Government of Chhattisgarh has allotted over 200 acres of land for the IIM Raipur campus in Atal Nagar. The new campus is a state-of-the-art campus presenting a blissful mix of modern architecture, culture & heritage of Chhattisgarh.
“To become a premier management institution that inspires thought leadership through scholarship and teaching by incorporating an ethos of inquiry, consciousness, and innovation.”
“To create future leaders by providing a learning-centric environment that nurtures management thought through research & practice.”
A positive learning ecosystem combined with great learning facility provided by an academic institution, can take the young and aspirational next generation to the right places in their career endeavours, including the corporate ladder. We, at IIM Raipur, aim to be one such institute. We hope to leverage the technology enabled growth opportunities presented by the Indian economy to move into the league of Developed Nations. It is crucial for our economic growth and development to ensure that we make our future managers capable of (a) harnessing our limited resources in a more effective manner by imbibing innovativeness and entrepreneurial zeal in them, and (b) training them in efficient management of technology and trade. We believe a digitally savvy aspirational nation with strong leadership would be very well positioned for industry 4.0 and further. As a young IIM, we welcome this opportunity and feel confident that our youthful energy, our faith, and dedication towards this endeavour shall help the country in future.
In other words, we have a simple mission to nurture excellence and promote leaders capable of managing resources in a globalized environment, with social responsibility. At IIM Raipur, we strive to enable the institute in a way that creates a vibrant academic culture and an eco-system for lifelong learning of students. This implies achieving academic excellence in every endeavour – creation of knowledge, imparting the knowledge, and augmenting the practice through consulting and executive education.
IIM Raipur’s strengths come from its unique values and agility, which are a result of its young roots and an inheritance of a rich local culture. The location of IIM Raipur also provides for a fantastic learning experience. The quaintness of the Chota Nagpur plateau region provides a great opportunity to reflect and introspect. The campus enables learning through not only group activities and peer learning but also through ‘chintan manan’ or learning through solitude.
