Top IPM Colleges in India

IPM Colleges refer to the colleges that offer the 5-year Integrated Program in Management–IPM.

Launched by IIM Indore in 2011, IPM is a one-of-a-kind program that bridges the gap and is designed to integrate the 3 years of undergraduate studies with 2 years of postgraduate studies.

After the successful completion and placements of all the IPM batches at IIM Indore, the program was introduced by IIM Rohtak and Nirma University at their respective campuses in 2019.

Thereafter, many IIMs have introduced the IPM course, including IIM Ranchi, IIM Bodh Gaya, IIM Jammu, IIM Amritsar and the newest of the league is IIM Shillong.
