About
IIM Visakhapatnam
Indian Institute of Management Visakhapatnam (IIMV)
belongs to the prestigious IIM family of business
schools. It is a new generation IIM, set up by the
Government of India in September 2015. The Indian
Institutes of Management Act 2017 declares IIMs as
Institutions of National Importance, empowered to
attain standards of global excellence in management,
management research and allied areas of knowledge.
IIM Visakhapatnam is located in its temporary, but
state-of-the-art facility in the salubrious Andhra
University campus in the ‘City of Destiny’,
Visakhapatnam. The Institute has begun the process
for building a permanent, full-fledged, word-class
campus on approx. 230 acres of land in the (relative)
vicinity of the upcoming green-field international
airport, about 25 kilometers from the present
(temporary/transit) campus. The first phase of the new
facility is expected to be functional by the end of 2021.
