Eighth IIM opens at Ranchi
Ranchi will soon boast of being home to an IIM . The eight Indian Institute of Management (IIM) will come into existence at Ranchi soon.
The prominent B-school was inaugurated by governor MOH Farook at a glittering function attended by IIM’s Board of Governors chairman RC Bhargava, IIM-Calcutta director Shekhar Chaudhuri and Union HRD ministry additional secretary Ashok Thakur, among others.
The other IIMs are in Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Indore, Kozhikode, Lucknow and Shillong besides Kolkata.
To start with, the institute will offer post-graduate programme in management (PGPM) for which 45 students have been enrolled. For now, classes would be conducted by IIM-Calcutta’s faculty at the state information and public relations department building, Soochna Bhawan. The Srikrishna Institute of Public Administration would serve as the institute’s hostel.
Addressing the launch function, governor Farook said once the flagship two-year programme stabilizes, IIM-Ranchi should try to develop and offer short and long-duration certificate programmes to suit the needs of Jharkhand population.
However, maintaining the quality and full-time, permanent faculties will be a tough challenge
