The Integrated Program in Management (IPM) is structured over a period of five years, divided into 15 terms. Each academic year is composed of three terms, each lasting three months. The program is divided into two distinct parts: the initial three years focus on building a strong foundation, while the latter two years concentrate on management studies.

The foundation phase is characterized by three key elements:

Analytical Rigor: Courses in Mathematics, Statistics, and Economics are integral to the curriculum, aiming to cultivate analytical rigor among students.

Core Disciplines: Courses in Psychology, Sociology, Political Science, and additional courses in Economics contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental disciplines that form the basis of management studies.

Breadth and Perspective: The curriculum also includes courses in Humanities, Literature, and Fine Arts. This diverse set of courses aims to provide students with a broad and perspective-rich education.

By structuring the program in this manner, the Integrated Program in Management aims to offer students a well-rounded education that not only builds a strong analytical foundation but also ensures a holistic understanding of various disciplines essential for effective management studies. This approach equips students with the skills and knowledge necessary for success in the field of management.
