HistoryEdit

This business school was founded in 1993 when Romuald D'Souza who had also served as the Director of XLRI – Xavier School of Management Jamshedpur and Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar moved out to create a Centre of Learning and Excellence in Goa.[2]

With the support from prominent philanthropists in Goa, Fr. Romuald D'Souza began the journey of GIM with a modest setting of few classrooms at the V. M. Salgaocar College of Law and a batch size of 60 students. Gradually as the popularity of the programme grew with the student community, the campus was shifted to the heritage building in Ribandar Conservation Area. It was here in the same campus that the Institute really flourished while offering their flagship Postgraduate diploma in Management.

In 2009, the Institute shifted to a sprawling campus in the lap of nature at Sanquelim[3][4]. This 50 acre campus is eco friendly and has a state of the art solar power generation facility[5] to meet the energy requirements of the campus. The water treatment plant ensures retreated water is collected in a common pool and is utilized for maintenance. The pool also has its own flora and fauna with various types of fresh water fish and local birds.

Currently the Institute offers the following courses
Course Intake
PGDM-Management 240
PGDM-Healthcare Management 60
PGDM-Big Data Analysis 120
PGDM-Banking Insurance & Financial Services 60

CampusesEdit

Heritage campusEdit

The campus was initially situated on the banks of the Mandovi River, in the Santa Casa de Misericordia in Ribandar. The building in which the school is housed is supposed to be one of the earliest hospitals in India and was converted from a hospital building to a business school campus in 1993. The 2011 batch was the last full-time batch to graduate from this campus. Now the campus is used only for conducting PGDM–Part Time courses.

Sanquelim campusEdit

From the year 2010, GIM shifted most of its academic courses to a new state-of-the-art campus located around 23 kilometers from the old one. The new campus at Sanquelim in Bicholim Taluka is located on a sprawling 50-acre plot surrounded by the idyllic foothills of the Western Ghats. The entire project cost has been estimated at approximately Rs 63 crore. The new campus was inaugurated by Ashok Ganguly, Rajya Sabha MP and former chairman of Hindustan Lever Ltd on 24 March 2012.[17]

The Sanquelim campus is primarily divided into the following an admin block, a faculty block and an academic block.[18]
