The Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Kashipur has officially begun the academic year 2025–27 with an incoming cohort of 433 students across its flagship MBA, MBA (Analytics), and PhD programmes. The institute conducted its induction programme from June 23 to 26, culminating in the formal inauguration ceremony on June 27, 2025.
A notable feature of this year’s intake is its strong gender diversity. Of the 433 students admitted, 201 are women, accounting for approximately 46% of the total cohort. The MBA (Analytics) programme, in particular, has witnessed a significant female representation, with 115 women among 157 students — an impressive 73% of that group.
As of June 27 (noon), the distribution of students across the programmes is as follows: 265 students in the MBA programme, 157 in the MBA (Analytics) programme, and 11 scholars enrolled in the PhD programme. The incoming batch represents a diverse range of academic backgrounds, including arts, commerce, science, and engineering, alongside students with varied professional experiences.
