[edit] History
Inaugurated in 1981 by the then British Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher, SPJIMR had modest beginnings as a small extension of the Bhavan's campus, which conceptualised it. Soon with subsequent batches, the institute grew to have a campus of its own and accommodation quarters for the students.
[edit] Awards and Accolades
The institute has been consistently ranked among the top 10 B-schools in India. The unique methodology, of incorporating community service into management education, adopted by the institute has won several laurels from the industry, society and the academic fraternity.
