This guide lists every IIM offering a UG programme, explains what each course offers, and shows how to start preparing. If you are a Class 11 or 12 student, or a parent exploring options, this is a good starting point.

What Are IIM UG Programmes?

IIM UG programmes are undergraduate degrees offered by the Indian Institutes of Management that students can join after Class 12. They include the 5-year Integrated Programme in Management (IPM), Bachelor of Management Studies (BMS), BBA, BSc and B.S. degrees. These programmes let students study management, economics, analytics, and public policy at an IIM from the first year.

Why Are IIM Undergraduate Programmes Popular?

They offer IIM-level education right after school, instead of waiting until after graduation for an MBA. The main reasons students choose them:

• Early entry into a premier brand: you study at an IIM from day one.
• Structured, long-term learning: the curriculum combines management, economics, analytics, and communication.
• Exposure: faculty, peers, industry talks and live projects.
• Future-ready fields: Digital Business, Data Science and AI match where jobs are heading.

What Types of IIM UG Courses Exist?

There are four types of IIM UG courses:

1. Integrated Programme in Management (IPM)

2. Bachelor of Management Studies (BMS)

3. BBA / BSc / B.S. in specialised fields

4. Online BBA

1. Shortlist programmes that match your interests: management, economics, data, or AI.
2. Check official notifications for eligibility, exam names, dates, and fees.
3. Start aptitude preparation in Quantitative Ability, Verbal Ability, and Logical Reasoning.
4. Take regular mock tests and review your mistakes.
5. Prepare for the selection stage, such as a personal interview or written ability test, if the IIM requires one.
6. Apply and track counselling deadlines carefully. 

Exams such as IPMAT and JIPMAT are commonly associated with IPM admissions. Verify the current year’s process on the official IIM websites. For a complete walkthrough, read our JIPMAT 2026 guide.

How Do You Choose the Right IIM UG Programme?

Choose based on interest, programme length, career goal, location, and budget, not only the IIM’s name. Ask yourself:

1. Do I prefer management, economics, data or public policy?
