INTRODUCTION
If one looks around at the major business houses, industrialists, entrepreneurs and
institution-builders in India, it would be observed that the roots of many of them could
be traced to Rajasthan. Amongst all the states in India and in fact anywhere in the world,
Rajasthan can claim to have the origins and development of true spirit of enterprise,
which is in essence the manifestation of management aptitude, attitude, knowledge and
skills. However, unfortunately the State of Rajasthan did not have even one front-ranking
management institute till recently. If one visited any of the websites on internet about
the major management institutes in India, it would have been shocking to find that these
did not list even a single management institute of Rajasthan. The setting up of Aravali
Institute of Management (AIM) at Jodhpur in Rajasthan is a sincere and committed endeavour
to fill in this long felt gap.
AIM has been set up under the aegis of Marwar Education Foundation, a registered
non-profit charitable educational Society. Though this is shaping up to be an institute of
international standards but for meeting the local and national needs. This is a
collaborative effort of the various organizations, Indian industry, people of Rajasthan,
friends and well-wishers from all over India and abroad.
A number of distinguished persons of eminence and expertise are associated with AIM by
being on its Board of Governors and the Advisory Council. In addition, almost 1000
industry leaders, heads of various organizations, management professionals and top
government officials from India and abroad are cooperating and supporting AIM in various
ways, including in entrepreneurship facilitation and placement for our students.
To begin with, AIM has started functioning from the spacious leased premises at Jodhpur
from August 2000 and in near future, there are plans to move into our own 100 acres
fully-residential campus for which the land is being provided by the Government of
Rajasthan. As the funds get progressively generated, the requisite buildings,
infrastructure and facilities would come up in phases for the first AIM fully-residential
campus to be located on the said 100 acres at Jodhpur.
