“Education is not plucking of fruits. It is learning to plant trees.”
Management Education in India is polarized between two distant extremes. At one end are the elite institutes which churn out products for the western world, with little regard for Indian needs. At the other end are colleges which teach management like any other course with the primary objective of passing the exams. This situation has led to pseudo employment of our Management graduates. IAME believes that, if India is to realize its dream of being a global leader, it needs managers at all levels, not mearly in the boardrooms. It needs both Entrepreneurs and Intrapreneurs. Also, as an international player, our youth need to become seamlessly connected to the world. What India needs is Indian Management with international perspective, while retaining Indian ethos and values.

“Try hard to get what you like, or you will be forced to like what you get”
Most management institutes in India are more or less clones of one another. Each one of them conducts courses mandated by the affiliated boards and universities with similar syllabi. However, those wishing to pursue management education must look for an institute which not only gives them the facility to obtain a degree, but also make them ready for their careers, not just jobs. We, at IAME, have put in systems which are directed towards this fundamental need of our prospective students. IAME has the largest spectrum of courses from graduate to post graduate levels. We are fully dedicated to Management and Commerce Education only, unlike some others, for whom management is just one of the many streams, which makes them lose the focus. IAME, therefore, offers infra-culture in addition to infrastructure. Our ecofriendly Wi-Fi enabled modern campus is conducive for learning without distractions. Our faculty are a judicious mix of academicians and industry practitioners.
