Pioneering Professional Education for over 35 years

ICFAI was established in 1984 as a not-for-profit society with the broad objective of empowering citizens through world class quality education.

ICFAI launched a high end, innovative professional program in financial analysis in 1985. The Program was first-of-its-kind in India, aimed at equipping students and working professionals with cutting-edge knowledge in contemporary areas of finance.

Since its establishment, ICFAI Group has made a significant mark in the Indian educational field with a pan-Indian network and presence.

Innovation has been the mainstay of ICFAI Group with innovation prevalent in its programs and even its culture.

Subsequently, there was a big leap when ICFAI Group started its chain of business schools (IBS) across India in 1995 to offer management program.

Another example of innovation is the introduction of Case Study methodology at IBS. IBS cases are conceived, developed and produced by Centers of Excellence namely, IBS Case Development Center (IBS-CDC) and IBS Center for Management Research (ICMR). They have won several accolades across the world.

ICFAI Group has 2 Strategic Institutional Units, the ICFAI Universities and the ICFAI Business Schools.

In all the programs offered across these units, the emphasis is on adherence to academic rigor and differentiated curriculum that bridges the industry - academia gap.

ICFAI Group focuses on learning rather than instruction.

In addition, the institute is engaged in important areas of research covering environmental sustainability, agricultural economics, health policy, financial economics, banking, intellectual property rights etc. There have been path-breaking research and good quality publications in these areas.

Flexible and tech enabled learning also plays an important role in ICFAI's teaching methodology. The delivery takes place with the use of hi-tech learning management system at campus programs and content delivery for distance learning through online medium.

ICFAI Group practices the value of academic integrity at all levels. As a policy, admissions are purely based on merit and there is nothing like capitation fee et al. The fee payable is published in the application material and that remains unchanged.

The ICFAI Group's culture of teaching and learning supports and fosters intellectual and personality development among its graduating students. They carry an attitude of ownership of their work.

ICFAI Group strives to make the students - DOERS. The programs are designed such that the students & professionals graduating from the institution have the ability to take risks, make decisions and own the work. ICFAI Group strongly believes in developing an 'entrepreneurial mindset' among its graduating students.
