I am pleased to share that IIM Sirmaur has ventured in undergraduate courses by offering a 4-year Bachelors in Management Studies (BMS) programme. This programme is unique in multiple ways. First and foremost, this programme offers a valuable opportunity to the aspirants to study at one of the prestigious institution of the country at an early stage of their lives. Second, this programme blends different components that are must for the holistic creation of future leaders including interdisciplinary courses, industry interface with practical subjects, internship opportunities, research component in curriculum, international exchange, capstone project, and guest lectures. Finally, in line with national education policy (NEP) – 2020, it has multiple exit options at different levels. This offers a unique flexibility to the students to pursue different interests during their educational journey. I am hopeful that this programme will be able to add immense value to the career of the students especially who are aspiring for building their careers in business domain in the long run.
