About the University
Founded in 1981 by Shri Vile Parle Kelavani Mandal (SVKM) in Mumbai, NMIMS (Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies) was granted Deemed University status by the Government of India in 2003. Today it operates 17 specialised schools across campuses in Mumbai, Shirpur, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Indore, Navi Mumbai and Chandigarh.
Consistently ranked among India’s top three private management universities, NMIMS is one of the very few Indian institutions to hold AACSB accreditation — a distinction held by fewer than 6% of business schools globally. Its flagship MBA program attracts over 60,000 applicants annually for approximately 860 seats.
Its distance and online education wing — NMIMS CDOE (Centre for Distance and Online Education), established in 1994 — serves over 1.85 lakh students with UGC-DEB approved programs valid across India and internationally (WES-approved for USA & Canada).
