The Leh campus has been established in collaboration with the Ladakh Administration to expand access to higher education and strengthen the region’s academic ecosystem.

He highlighted its focus on managerial skills, innovation and entrepreneurship, while underscoring the institute’s commitment to inclusive educational opportunities and regional development.
The four-year programme is designed to develop students’ analytical thinking, decision-making, leadership and problem-solving abilities, preparing them for careers in industry, entrepreneurship and further studies in management and related fields.
Admission to the 2026–30 batch has been determined through the prescribed selection process, which considers scores from JIPMAT 2026, CUET (General Aptitude Test) 2026 or JEE (Main) 2026, along with Class 10 and Class 12 academic performance and gender diversity, as specified in the institute’s admission policy.
