An Interview with Prof. HP Gupta, Vice Chairman OF IME
The Institute of Management Education (IME), Ghaziabad, was established in 1995 at a time when the surge for knowledge and excellence was as its zenith. With the advancement in IT, a liberalized economy and higher aspiration in life, the field of management education now encompass not only the development of managerial skills in functional areas but also the capabilities in handling integrated system based on complex software packages.
The founders of IME were conscious of this perspective and academics, professional, and corporate executives of high standing have been guiding IME to achieve these ends.
The well-planned campus on more than seven acres of land on main GT Road, Sahibabad, Ghaziabad (UP) in NCR, at a distance of 3km from Border of NCT, has a complex for academic and administrative blocks. Lecture rooms are spacious and fully furnished so as to facilities the use of audio-visual equipment.
The IT center includes a multimedia lab, a cyber lab, and a hardware lab that has over 200 workstations under powerful Pentium-based computers.
Looking at parameters besides academics excellence, the institution’s score is no less remarkable. It extends supports to every student during summer training, project work and final placement.

All the students are encouraged to cultivate their team-building and decision-making skills. Besides, the IME students club organises inter-college competitions and undertake industrial tours and cultural & social activities.
Beyond Academics
Another feature that makes IME a unique college is its consciousness towards social responsibility. While the core business of any academic institution is to provide education to its students, we feel that any educational institution also has certain social responsibilities.
At IME, this realization takes the form of various activities carried out by the colleges of IME with the active involvement of its students.
IME has organized numerous activities to fulfill its social responsibilities. Each college believes in inclusive growth and is conscious of its social responsibilities. They undertake a number of activities to meet these objectives as well as to make its students good citizens and responsible members of society. IME has been the sponsorer of “Special Olympics-New Delhi-2008” and “Special Olympic – New Castle Australia-2013”.
