Kirloskar Institute of Advanced Management Studies (KIAMS) has launched its second campus at Pune (Maharashtra) in 2010. The first campus was started more than 10 years back at Harihar (Karnataka) recognising the need for developing managerial and organizational excellence.

KIAMS ranks among the top B-schools and provides world class MBA education in India. The Pune campus has an on-campus hostel which provides all amenities and facilities for the students so that they can better focus on their studies. Gopal Iyengar, Director, KIAMS, has this to say about the institute, “Our beliefs hold that everyone has a potential and worth, which cannot be measured on a common scale, and that there is ample room for everyone in the field of Management. Thus each individual has a potential which can find a niche in Management.” He further says that, “Our Processes will aim beyond delivering good education. The invitation to the student is to master theory but eschew being theoretical. The individual is encouraged to explore with a sense of responsibility to find the potential that s/he wishes to convert to professional performance.” The institute provides modern education by an industry experienced faculty and has built a strong industry interface. Eminent guest speakers belonging to the industry and academia are invited from all over the world to deliver informative and interesting lectures on varied topics at the institute. The institute has a well-stocked library with all the necessary books, periodicals and journals and a modern computer lab. Students also receive free membership to the British Library (Pune).

Moreover, it also has a patronage of Kirloskar’s. Given a chance I would like to come back again for further studies.” The institute currently offers a two year full time Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) Programme.
