About the Institute

Bahadur Institute of Management Sciences (BIMS) – The Genesis
India was on the threshold of management education when University of Mysore set up the Department of Business Administration in 1974 owing to the dynamism of the then Vice-Chancellor Prof. D. Javare Gowda and Dr.J.K Irani, Professor of Commerce.  MBA programme began to be offered drawing the services of experienced faculty from other departments of the University and Industry.

The great leap forward came in 2002.  Mr. B.N. Bahadur an alumnus of the University  and President of the B.N. Bahadur Family Foundation of Michigan, U.S.A made handsome donation, which together with contribution from the University  created “B.N. Bahadur Institute of Management Sciences”,(BIMS) situated on the northern edge of “Manasagangothri”. The University conferred Honorary Doctorate on B.N.Bahadur in 2007.

Mysore City, being the historic center of Karnataka, is blessed with cultural, social and commercial ambience for promoting management education. BIMS, set in a sylvan expanse, is a unique piece of architecture.  Spacious classrooms, 60 seat computer lab, 200 seat auditorium, a well-stacked library, and sports facilities accommodate more than 350 budding managers.

The Institute is striving to fulfill its mission of developing “Performers” and “Contributors”. The faculty is a fine blend of academicians and practising managers.  In addition to the conduct of regular MBA programme, research and consultancy, the Institute is expanding its horizon by offering a variety of management programs.  Networking with other business schools and corporates has enabled course offerings to keep pace with the highly competitive business world and changing needs of the managerial market.
