IIPM Academic Centers (scroll down for details of Scholarships, Student Committees & Clubs)

Over the past many years, since IIPM was established in 1973, there have been various academic Centers at IIPM that have gained international repute due to their critical researches, surveys and consulting assignments for international bodies. A synopsis of these Centers of repute & their objectives is provided below.

Center for Executive Development: With IIPM's HRIC (Human Resource Intelligence Cell), Executive development programs in the areas of Corporate Planning & Strategic Behavior, Management of National Economy, Behavioral Sciences etc are conducted regularly under the aegis of this Center. Please visit the link on training (HRIC) for detailed information.

Center for Enterprise Management: The Center was founded with the sole objective of encouraging learning of enterprise management techniques right from the collegiate level. Due to the fact that most of the Asian business schools do not give importance to teaching high level management concepts to undergraduate students, this Center has the responsibility of managing the BBA course of IIPM that has now become one of Asia's premier undergraduate courses and India's number one.

Regional Centers of Studies & Research: These Centers undertake geographically decentralized researches through IIPM's research cell ICMR (Indian Council of Market Research) and various academic communities in areas related to social and economic development. These Centers enable academic and student bodies from all over the world to take part in research in geographical locations of their particular interest area, thus providing phenomenal diversity, flexibility and specificity to any research assignment.

Center for Human Development: This Center is credited to have led to the birth of the Great Indian Dream Foundation, which is now one of the world's leading support and development organizations that support socio-economic development activities in various disadvantaged, underprivileged, and underdeveloped areas. The objective of the Center is to initiate discussions, seminars and research on sustainable and ethical needs of man & woman, on both physical and psychological fronts, and on how to plan and manage societies. The Center focuses on actual implementation of multi level support activities that would ensure full growth of human capabilities avoiding the unfortunate dehumanizing process of the industrial civilization.

Center for Rural Development: The Center intends to train entrepreneurs and social workers for providing support in rural reconstruction and service programs. The Center acts hand in hand with other rural reconstruction boards operated by national and international bodies. Probably one of the reasons for the absolute success of this Center could be that this is one of the few Centers that recruits its future leaders directly from its training base. This ensures that the mission, aims & objectives of the Center are clearly transmitted throughout various cells of the center, wherever in the world.
