IIMK recently laid the foundation stone for the new campus in the presence of A Vellayan, Chairman--Board of Governors of IIMK, Debashis Chatterjee, Director IIMK, and Loknath Behera, Managing Director, Kochi Metro Rail Ltd (KMRL).Kochi has a vibrant business and start-up ecosystem, is cen-trally located and offers great connectivity to domestic and inter-national participants. With its executive education program see-ing increasing traction, the institute is set to accommodate more programs. Commencing on the new initiative, Debashis explains the plans: "The new campus at Kochi underscores our emphasis on "hi-tech and hi-touch," as it will enable us to offer a variety of executive programs in multiple and blended formats. We are the only Top-3 ranked management school in Kerala and Kochi. We want to continue bringing the rigor and excellence of a top IIM to serve the needs of businesses and working professionals in Kerala and its hinterland, including the Middle East and South Asia." IIMK has also revised its admission policy. According to the new policy, the weightage for CAT exams has been set at 35 per-cent.
