Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (commonly referred to as JBIMS) is the Department of Management Studies of the University of Mumbai, situated in Churchgate, Mumbai. The institute is named after noted industrialist and freedom fighter Jamnalal Bajaj.
History
Established in 1965 by the University of Mumbai in collaboration with the Graduate School of Business, Stanford University, JBIMS received foundational support through a donation from the Jamnalal Bajaj Seva Trust. It was amongst the pioneering Indian institutions to offer a full-time two-year master's programme in management studies.[1]
Programmes
JBIMS offers several full-time, part-time, and research-based academic programmes in management.
Master of Management Studies (MMS)
This is the flagship two-year, full-time postgraduate management programme of JBIMS. The programme was deliberately titled MMS rather than MBA to emphasise that management principles apply to all organisations, not only business entities.
