‘Quality before Scalability’ is an oft-heard mantra, but nowhere does this hold true in the business education scenario in India. At the turn of the millennium, management institutes were sprouting in every nook and corner of the country. But thirteen years down the line, we notice that very few actually lived beyond a decade. One of those who not only survived but actually thrived – and is today recognised as a formidable brand -is the Jaipuria Institute of Management. Raised in the mid-nineties, Jaipuria Institute of Management, Lucknow was established by stalwarts from the domain of education from the pre-independence era. During its fledgling years, the management of Jaipuria Lucknow observed, studied and understood the dynamics of the Knowledge Revolution, and embedded this deeply into its DNA. So, by the time the second campus came up in Noida in 2004, innovations had become second nature to Jaipuria Institute of Management. It is for this reason that Jaipuria is today known for producing managers and leaders who are essentially Knowledge Society compliant.

“Frankly speaking, Jaipuria Institute of Management has come this far only because of its ability to innovate and keep up with the times, and at a very fast pace,” points our Dr. Prabhat Pankaj, Director, Jaipuria Institute of Management, Jaipur. “Student Councils, the Individual Development Plan through a strong mentor-mentee programme, increasing focus on industry connect, taking administrative decision-making right to staff and faculty, 24 x 7 accessibility of academic resources to students through E-learning, and social media tools.all such innovations are deeply ingrained within our DNA now. I strongly believe that in the UnCampus philosophy, our years of innovation have come together under one umbrella. All the four campuses are seamlessly integrated, allowing free exchange of ideas and events, and leading to unprecedented collaboration between students, faculty and staff.”
At Jaipuria, any time is a good time to bring in an innovation; new ideas don’t wait for the next academic year. For instance, campus life after classes was always interesting, but a couple of years ago, the concept of ‘Life-after-6’was introduced formally, bringing in a series of value added activities. Today, foreign language classes and guitar classes during the 7-8 PM slot are big hits! The ‘Midnight Reading Hub’ is turning out to be another ‘happening’ innovation at Jaipuria Institute of Management, Jaipur.
The atmosphere at all the Jaipuria campuses is quite informal, with teachers acting more as facilitators and students being encouraged to think things through.
Jaipuria’s legacy of pedagogical innovations has now reached the threshold of being a game-changer. This year, Jaipuria campuses critically examined the SIP projects from a completely different perspective.
This has result in the placement for 2014 batch. As per the latest statistics 275 students have already being placed across its 4 campuses. Till date over 50 companies have already visited for recruiting with many more leading corporates in the pipe line. This proves the growing acceptance of Jaipuria graduates by the corporates.
Interestingly, the management of Jaipuria Institute of Management believes that one of the major reasons behind their success is that right from the beginning, everyone within the folds of the Jaipuria campuses believed they worked for a B-school second to none. Belief generates hope, and hope generates enthusiasm and ownership. This ultimately generates outcome. All campuses of Jaipuria Institute of Management are among the top 5 in their respective regions. Jaipuria Lucknow and Noida have been accredited as ‘A’ grade institutes by NAAC, two among the few B-schools in the country to be awarded with the highest ranking. Jaipuria Noida has been ranked 6th in North India amongst private B schools – Career 360,2012, 31st in India amongst Best Schools – NHRDN-People Mattes 2013, A++ by Business India. Jaipuria Jaipur has been ranked as the best b school in Rajasthan by Business Today in 2012 and 5th amongst private B-Schools in Rajasthan – CSR GHRDC Survey. Riding on its hugely successful legacy of innovations, the institute is producing managers who are well ahead of their times. This has been witnessed in placement of their students with an average package of 4.7 lacs across varied functions in leading companies.
