IIM Visakhapatnam started it classes on Sep 21, 2015 which was officially launched by Minister for Education Ganta Srinivasa Rao. The Indian Institute of Management in Visakhapatnam will commence its operations from its temporary building on Andhra University campus from Monday.

All the 60 seats have been filled and IIM-Bangalore will mentor its Vizag counterpart for two-three years. While the main administration will be operating from the building of Andhra Bank School of Business on the AU campus, accommodation has been provided to students at an apartment complex. During the first year, the entire faculty will be flying down from IIM-Bangalore and slowly migrate to Visakhapatnam.
