The Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore (IIMB) was established in 1973. It is one of India's premier management institutions. The IIMs were created by the government of India to augment management talent and resources in the country. Located in India’s high technology capital, IIMB is a hub of innovative activity.

The flagship Postgraduate Programme in Management (PGP) and Fellow (Doctoral) Programme in Management (FPM) are very highly rated and IIMB alumni occupy senior managerial and academic positions across the globe.

The institute had a public sector legacy well into the late 1980's. It changed focus to coincide with India's liberalization in 1990's and is regularly ranked as no. 1 or 2 among the management institutes in the country these days (Business Today rankings).

It has started a Postgraduate programme in software management (PGSEM) to fulfill the needs of working professionals of the software industry in Bangalore and has expanded the programme to Chennai. It also offers a Postgraduate programme in public policy management (PGPPM) to mid-career civil servants of the Government of India in collaboration with the Syracuse University, USA .

It has recently opened a campus in Singapore.
