Founded in 1979 at the initiative of Dr Verghese Kurien and the National Dairy Development Board, IRMA created the discipline of rural management in India. The two-year PGDM in Rural Management includes a long village fieldwork segment and feeds graduates into cooperatives, agribusiness, rural banking, microfinance and the development sector. It is a deliberate, values-driven alternative to a mainstream corporate MBA.
