Nature and Extent of involvement of faculty and students in academic affairs/ improvements. The Academic environment in IMI is built on the strong foundation of lifelong learning. A collaborative spirit underlies the teaching. At the end of every trimester a written feedback is obtained from students for every course. At the end of the year, an open feedback session is held for students to recount their experience in IMI and make suggestions for improvements in the curriculum. A committee consisting of the Director, Dean, Programme Directors, Registrar and outside experts considers the suggestions and makes changes/improvements.

IMI students not only become members of a specific MBA class but also help shape the institution for those who follow. To encourage this process, we involve alumni (whose number exceeds 3000) in many aspects of student life; they now interview applicants and routinely take part in orientation activities by attending dinners and leading discussion groups. Our goal is to help students understand both the benefits and the responsibilities that come with joining the IMI community.
