ESTABLISHMENT AND GOVERNANCE<\/h3>\n

A keen desire to establish a premier management education institute in Assam, akin to the IIMs but with a regional focus, culminated in the founding of the Assam Institute of Management\u00a0by the Government of Assam on 7th January, 1988 as an autonomous society of the State Government. Probably, it is the only autonomous State Government Management Institute in the country.<\/p>\n

The Assam Institute of Management (AIM) operates under the aegis of a Governing Body, chaired ex-officio by the Hon\u2019ble Minister of Education, Assam. The Director of AIM serves as the Member Secretary. The Governing Body is composed of distinguished members and nominees, including the Commissioner\/Secretary of the Department of Higher Education, representatives from the Transformation & Development Department, Industries & Commerce Department, PWD, and the Director of Higher Education (Assam). Additionally, esteemed representatives from prestigious institutions such as IITG, IIMS, NEC Shillong, Gauhati University, NRL, FINER, and Premier Cryogenics Ltd. are included.<\/p>\n

Since its inception, the Governing Body has been graced by several eminent personalities. Throughout its journey, AIM has immensely benefited from the guidance, oversight, and support of Dr. Himanta Biswa Sharma, the present Hon\u2019ble Chief Minister of Assam and former Education Minister of Assam.<\/p>\n\n
