IIPM Philosophy
The IIPM programme wasconceptualized in 1973 keeping in mind the unfortunate fact that education inIndia till then had still remained primarily oriented towards the needs of theprivate sector and had overlooked the specific requirements of the publicsector. We had even failed to do justice to the private sector in as much as wehad not succeeded in impressing upon the students the basic framework withinwhich the private sector had to operate in our country. The scope and role ofthe private sector in our country, in the context of national economicplanning, was quite distinct from that of the private sector in the free marketeconomies originally developed through colonial exploitation.
