Type: Admission Notices

University: Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Kozhikode

Indian Institute of Management, Kozhikode had decided to make a modest start by opening two satellite centres - one in Jammu and Kashmir each - for its executive PG programme. The idea is to expand the higher education system to areas which remain neglected. According to IIM, Kozhikode director. Admissions to these centres will start from August 2013 for the 2013-14 batch and aims to make premium executive management education accessible to working executives of the region. The IIM has also proposed to the J&K government for a "mini campus" in the state.

Pioneer among the IIMs for narrowing the gender divide for the first time in IIMs history (admitting 54.29% women students in its PGP batch of 2013 -15), this will be another milestone for the comparatively new IIM as it set to start two classroom centres for their executive post graduate programs - one in Jammu and the second in Kashmir.

The last date for application for the executive programme is August 25, 2013 and according to the IIM official the first batch will be small as compared to its other centres. This initiative is to provide an opportunity to enhance managerial and leadership skills for the locals who are forced to move to metropolitan cities to pursue higher education. The course would be delivered through in-campus classes and interactive learning platform classes conducted during evenings and weekends.
