The Indonesia campus will be IIM Bangalore’s first international campus and one of a few Indian Institutes of Management to have a physical presence in a foreign country. The move is aimed at promoting academic collaboration, student and faculty exchange and offer globally recognised management programmes to students in Southeast Asia.
The announcement comes at a time when India is pushing for internationalisation of its higher education sector under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and asking top institutions to expand their global footprints.
