[edit] History

An Institute founded in 1965, JBIMS is considered to be unique in management education as it is firmly rooted in the local soil and capable of articulating the Indian ethos. In the contemporary era, where Globalization and Liberalization are the buzz words, the Institute has, without disturbing the said roots, ordered itself to meet the emerging challenges, sentiments and opportunities that are going to present themselves on account of the new economic order.


The proximity of Bajaj with the commercial hub of India - Nariman Point serves as an added advantage. This translates into the symbiotic affiliation with the corporate magnets, equipping the students with business acumen to become tomorrow’s leaders.


JBIMS is in the process of scaling new heights in the management education having been ranked in Asia’s Top 25 business schools by Asia Inc.


The Institute has full-time faculty in the core management disciplines and the functional areas of management. The Institute also has a panel of eminent management experts and senior practicing managers from diverse fields of management.


Besides the regular curriculum, the students are also involved in co-curricular activities like inter business school competitions, research projects conducted by the institute and are constantly interacting with the industry, thus strengthening their practical orientation and developing themselves into future business managers.


[edit] Evolution

The vision that has inspired the basic philosophy and approach of JBIMS since its inception is that of management thinkers and philosophers deeply entrenched and firmly rooted in the Indian soil. A 2-year full-time MMS programme was thus launched with a view to develop competent high caliber management thinkers and practitioners for efficient running of Indian business and industry. The Institute believes that proper managerial perspective, search of excellence and efficient managerial action is possible by a person with managerial potential developed into a highly resourceful, enriched and stimulating mind through knowledge, skills and attitudes provided in the MMS course.

This has been the mission and central theme of JBIMS in its outlook and in launching various educational/research/development activities for advancement of management education.
