Background
Bharati Vidyapeeth was founded in 1964 by Patangrao Kadam as an educational trust in Pune, and was later granted deemed-to-be-university status by the University Grants Commission. The trust expanded across Maharashtra and other parts of India, establishing colleges in disciplines including medicine, engineering, law, and management. BVIMR was set up as part of this expansion to give the university a presence in the National Capital Region and to cater to students seeking management education in northern India.
Academic programmes
The institute primarily focuses on management and computer applications education. Its programme portfolio typically includes:
- Master of Business Administration (MBA)
- Master of Computer Applications (MCA)
- Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA)
- Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA)
- Doctoral programmes (PhD) in management and allied areas
Degrees are awarded by Bharati Vidyapeeth (Deemed to be University), as BVIMR functions as a constituent school rather than an independently degree-granting body.
Affiliation and recognition
As a constituent unit of a deemed-to-be university, BVIMR operates under the regulatory framework of the University Grants Commission (UGC). Its management programmes fall within the purview of the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE).
Significance
The institute represents the Delhi outpost of one of Maharashtra's larger private educational groups, providing the Bharati Vidyapeeth network with a foothold in the northern Indian higher-education market. It contributes to the parent university's broader profile in management education alongside its sister institutes in Pune, Navi Mumbai, Kolhapur, and other locations.
