History

The Institute of Management Technology (IMT) traces its roots back to 1980 when it was established in Ghaziabad with a vision to cultivate adaptable, flexible, and culturally sensitive business leaders. Founded by the Dr. K. Nath Public Trust, and spearheaded by Shri Mahendra Nath, the institute aimed to contribute to management education. The trust, committed to promoting trade schools and institutes of higher education, collaborated with the Lajpat Rai Educational Society to provide financial support for the inception of IMT. In 1983, IMT received approval from the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), marking a significant milestone in its journey.

Over the years, IMT garnered recognition as one of India's premier institutions for management studies. In 2004, IMT expanded its footprint by establishing an MBA institute in Nagpur, further solidifying its presence in the field of management education. This expansion not only broadened IMT's reach but also enhanced its reputation as a centre for corporate excellence.

Building on its success, IMT continued its expansion efforts by setting up another campus in Hyderabad in 2011. This strategic move aimed to tap into the demand for management education in southern India while further diversifying IMT's academic offerings. The Hyderabad campus quickly gained prominence as a hub for academic innovation and industry engagement.

In the 2023-24 academic year, IMT Ghaziabad achieved notable rankings in various surveys. The Financial Times Master in Management 2023 Rankings placed it 92nd in the world. In the Times of India B School ranking 2024, IMT Ghaziabad was ranked 5th overall. Additionally, Business Today's 2023 B School ranking positioned IMT Ghaziabad 13th overall and 5th among private institutions.
