The institute also exposes the students to all aspects of the economy and to its various facets like environment, societal values, social responsibility and human value system.

They bring with them varied and extensive industry and research experience, ensuring the right academia-industry interface that IILM is proud of. All faculty members play an important role in administering the diverse academic and non-academic activities of the Institute.

In order to accomplish its mission, IILM collaborated with University of Bradford in 1996 to offer undergraduate courses in the area of Management at the Undergraduate level at the Campus. The Undergraduate Business School at IILM follows the same program structure as the University of Bradford. Bradford University and the IILM Undergraduate Business School follow identical curriculum, syllabi, study material, lists of recommended texts, business games and case studies for respective courses. Faculty members and administrative staff from Bradford visit IILM-College to assist in the coordination of the courses and teaching. There is a regular bilateral faculty and staff exchange between the School of Management, University of Bradford and IILM-College for academic and administrative purposes. Students are permitted to transfer to Bradford University anytime after completing the first year at IILM-College. The University of Bradford and IILM also jointly sponsor eight students for a one month visit to the University of Bradford. This gives a tremendous academic exposure to the students and fosters a sense of cross cultural learning. Selection for this scholarship is based on merit.
