Indian Institute of Management Indore is a state funded management institute in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. Instituted in 1998, IIM Indore is the sixth addition to the prestigious IIM family. Known as "Prabandh Shikhar" or "Peak of Management", the scenic 193 acre (781,000 m²) campus is located atop a small hill on the outskirts of Indore. The institute has been consistently ranked among the top business schools in India.
The essence of management, IIM I believes, lies in managing one's own ambitions and forging ahead consciously. "A strong theoretical foundation is the basis of good corporate practice" this, coupled with a grounding in management as it is practiced, is the underlying theme of the flagship Post Graduate Programme (PGP). Spanning two years the programme is benchmarked against similar programmes of the best business schools in the world. Experiential learning, IT orientation, and social sensitivity are some of the unique features of the programme.
The institute was conceived by the then Human Resource Development minister Arjun Singh. The institute was established here to give an impetus to the management education in the central region of the country, and partially influenced by the fact that Mr. Arjun Singh hails from this state. The old temporary campus was located in Rajendranagar in Indore till 2002, when the institute moved to its current state of the art campus situated on the Rau-Pithampur road close to the Pithampur Special Economic Zone.

The foundation stone of the new campus was laid by Mukesh Ambani. The sprawling 193 acre campus is amongst the biggest for management institutes in the country. A large part of the campus still remains unused as the institute is relatively young.
