IIMs to be declared as Institutions of National Importance
The Bill provides for complete autonomy to the Institutions, combined with adequate accountability.
A greater participation of experts and alumni in the Board is amongst otherimportant features of the Bill.
The Bill also provides for periodic review of the performance of Institutions by independent agencies, and placing the results of the same on public domain.
Indian Institutes of Management are the country's premier institutions imparting best quality education in management on globally benchmarked processes of education and training in management.
IIMs are recognized as world-class management Institutions and Centers of Excellence and have brought laurels to the country. All IIMs are separate autonomous bodies registered under the Societies Act.
Being societies, IIMs are not authorized to award degrees and, hence, they have been awarding Post Graduate Diploma and Fellow Programme in Management.
While these awards are treated as equivalent to MBAs and Ph.D, respectively, the equivalence is not universally acceptable, especially for the Fellow Programme.
