IIM-Kolkata gets 200 crore makeover

IIM Kolkata gets ready for an overhaul to reflect an international look.

The 200 crore investment includes construction of new buildings, including hostels to accommodate the 35% increase in student's intake in the varsity, and remodeling of old structures.

The institution will have state-of-the-art classrooms, fitted with multimedia teaching tools. The institute has planed housing for the faculty and for executives who come for short-term programmes. An institute of our stature should not look and feel any different from that of a world class campus anywhere in the developed countries, especially at a time when we have started attracting foreign students and is about to start a bouquet of new courses, “said chief administrative officer of the institute, Dinesh Verma.
