FROM THE
     DIRECTOR’S
     DESK
     I am happy to introduce you to XLRI - India’s first Business Management education school.
     XLRI was established in 1949, soon after the independence of India and joined in spirit and action the selfless patriots
     and great leaders of India in helping re-build our great nation. Since inception, XLRI focused on training aspiring
     managers for the corporate world who could help shape the destiny of India with competence and dedication. XLRI
     continues to have the same vision since its founding – to train business leaders who are professionally competent, have
     high personal values and social concern for the less privileged.
     Today, besides being competent professionals, the need of the hour is to have an ethical mindset. Business leaders
     today not only have to be competent and service oriented but they essentially need to be men and women of integrity
     and ethics. “Excellence and Integrity” is the guiding motto of XLRI, derived from the principle of “Magis” – ever greater,
     ever better, excellence. We try to translate excellence through academic excellence, value excellence, social excellence
     and sound physical health. This is the integral formation we offer to our students.
     Our academic excellence is our greatest strength. This, coupled with values instilled through courses, activities, events
     and the environment we co-create, helps shape corporate leaders who will serve as “change agents”, and will bring
     about a significant change in the lives of the poor and the marginalized. Our emphasis is to help mold our students into
     caring, nurturing leaders who will not just make a difference to the organization that will employ them, but will strive
     to fulfill their citizenship duties through corporate social responsibility.
     XLRI tries to meet the management education-centric expectations of various segments of aspiring and practicing
     business leaders by offering a variety of programs. Our flagship programs include the two-year Postgraduate Programs
     in Business Management and Human Resource Management, full-time one year General Management Program for
     executives with experience, three year part-time Program in Business Management in Jamshedpur. We also offer one
     year online VIL programs besides other MDP and E-MDP programs.
     We are delighted to be part of the exclusive group of global business schools who have earned triple accreditation from
     AACSB, AMBA and NBA. You, as students will get ample exposure and will get multiple opportunities to interact with
     business leaders and other acclaimed individuals from every sphere of life.
     Jamshedpur, the first planned township of India, is an extremely clean and hospitable city. Jamshedpur offers excellent
     sports and recreational facilities, and is located amidst a sylvan environment with rivers, forests and villages.
     I welcome you to join XLRI and evolve as a visionary leader who will lead from the front both in business and as a
     citizen of this great nation.

     Fr. P Christie, S.J.

XLRI Delhi-NCR
     Campus
     XLRI, India’s first B-School was founded in 1949 and for
     seventy years had just one campus at Jamshedpur. With India
     slated to become the fifth-largest economy in the world in the
     near future, there is a concomitant need for more business
     leaders. Hence, a few years ago, XLRI took a strategic decision
     to expand its footprint across the country and decided to set up
     new campuses in the North, West and Southern parts of India.
     The foundation stone for the Jhajjar campus in Delhi-NCR was
     laid on 16 January 2017. Shri Om Prakash Dhankar, Cabinet
     minister, Government of Haryana unveiled the plaque of the
     foundation and Rev. Anil Couto, Archbishop of Delhi, blessed
     the foundation stone.
     XLRI plans to open its new campus in Delhi-NCR for the
     academic session 2020-22; classes for two sections of PGDBM
     Program will commence from June 2020. This year XAT will
     accept applications from aspirants for not only the Jamshedpur
     campus but also for XLRI, Delhi-NCR campus subject to the
     formal approval from AICTE.
