What is IPM?
The Integrated Program in Management (IPM) is a special five-year course (UG+PG) offered by 5 Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) like IIM Indore, IIM Rohtak, IIM Ranchi, IIM Bodh Gaya, and IIM Jammu. It's for students who finish high school and want to study management. This program combines both Undergraduate and Postgraduate courses, giving a complete education in management.
If you're interested in pursuing a Bachelor's degree from IIM, you can start your journey by taking the IPMAT Indore exam after completing your class 12th. Class 12th pass outs face less competition in the IIM IPM admission exam than getting into IIMs through CAT. The IIM offers students the flexibility to graduate after three years with a Bachelor's degree or to continue with the program for five years, culminating in an MBA qualification.
At IIM Indore, you get the best teachers and mentors. Students pursuing IPM from IIM Indore get an extra advantage over those who choose management courses after graduating. After graduating from IPM, you get the prestigious IIM brand value, even before a master's. This sets you up for success in your career.
