Guru Nanak Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai

The GNIMS came into existence in 2002. Along with the full time management courses in different disciplines, it also provides part-time programs which appeal to working executives.In fact, the 3 year course takes care of all the subjects, and the executives have the added advantage of already having basic industry knowledge.

What makes education at GNIMS stand out is the mentorship system where students benefit from one-on-one interaction with their teachers and get the right guidance and direction to aid their progress. The fact that the institute cares for its students is seen from the fact that they have several activities to assist their students who come from a vernacular background to improve their grasp on the English language. There is focus on project-based learning as a vital tool for management education.

GNIMS gives its students the option of international internships. For 6 – 8 weeks they gain real life exposure and experience in an international milieu. The GNIMS has 17 tie ups with universities around the globe, including the Aarhus in Denmark which is the best in the world for telecommunication sector and Teesside University in the UK. Such international exposure is greatly appreciated by industry stalwarts at the time of recruitment.

The Institute’s brick and mortar structures with its many facilities may seem to be impressive but in reality they pale into insignificance when compared to the other priceless assets of the institute – our people – our students, the administrative staff, the faculty, the researchers and of course, our strong alumni. An institute is made up of people who form its core, its throbbing heart whilst the students educational experience forms its vibrant soul and the faculty the brain. An institute derives its purpose and function from the people who occupy its physical space. GNIMS is a community of stakeholders of which our students and ex-students-the alumni, are the core. From the moment you enrol as a GNIMS student, you become part of our institute’s community and will remain so forever, when you move on in life in the continuing pursuit of your aspirations. You are our valued stakeholders who, by your continual participation, help the rest of us in the institute’s community to fulfil our educational mission. All members of our community-students, faculty, administrative staff and alumni have a place on the continuum linking the institute to the society around us. Our primary “customers” are our present students, who first will move on to become alumni and then we hope will continue to be our customers as well as fellow stakeholders.
