History

[edit]

The Department of Management Studies is a result of the process of growth idea floated in 1963. In 1974, IIT Delhi set up an internal committee to scrutinize the functioning of the management area in the institute. In 1975, an expert committee was set up to formally examine the possibility of launching this area in a more sustained fashion. The result was an M.Tech programme in "Management Systems" in the School for System Studies (subsequently renamed School for Systems and Management Studies).

1978 saw the setting up of the Management Core Group and the core inputs to a full-time Management Education at IIT(D) were reconfirmed by an Advisory Committee constituted by the representatives of the Academia and the industry. Dr Vinayshil Gautam served as the first head of the department.[2] The School for Systems and Management Studies became the Centre for Systems and Management Studies (subsequently renamed as the Centre for Management Studies).[citation needed]

In 1993, the Department was brought into existence by amendment to IIT(D) statutes. In response to the feedback from the students, alumni and industry, the Department of Management Studies launched MBA programmes in 1997.[citation needed][3] Apart from the specialised compulsory courses in the focus area, the students have choice for functional area specialization in finance, marketing, operations, information technology, HR etc.[citation needed]
