The Visionary Founder
A Vision Born from
Purpose & Principle
People Institute of Management Studies (PiMS) was the brainchild of the vision and foresight of the late Adv. P. Raghavan, a former legislator of the Kerala Legislative Assembly (1991–2001) and a keen nurturer of infrastructure in the education sector in the backward Kasaragod district of Kerala.
PiMS was established in 2009 with the noble vision of imparting high-quality, value-oriented management education — adding the best skills in students and preparing them for leadership. In its years since inception, the institute is now enviably placed as the only self-financed B-school in Kasaragod.

Social Mission & Justice
Education for Every Background
PiMS stands proudly among the elite few self-financed B-schools in India that offer MBA courses for the poorest of the poor. The tuition fees at PiMS are comparable to Government colleges, focused specifically on the economic upliftment of poor students, backward communities (OBC/SC/ST), and the ushering in of social justice through high-quality professional education.
"Yet, in terms of infrastructure and facilities such as air-conditioned classrooms, seminar halls, gymnasium, recreational spaces, library and labs, it is second to none and enjoys parity with the best B-Schools of Kerala."
Academic Approach
Innovative Academic Philosophy
PiMS has adopted a novel academic rubric based on the revised Bloom's Taxonomy. The objective of the dynamic academic curriculum is in formulating an andragogy that imbibes factual, conceptual, procedural and metacognitive knowledge in budding managers.
The teacher-student interchange is the focus of this andragogy — goal-oriented, with clarity of purpose and an instruction method that is novel and experiential, providing a learning for a lifetime. Training is imparted on an ongoing basis by eminent scholars and industry heads.
