Until last year Rourkela had two institutions that offered management (MBA or equivalent) programs. They are:
This year IIPM Kansbahal (20 kms from Rourkela on the Rourkela-Sambalpur highway) will start an MBA program under the auspicies of BPUT. This program is approved by AICTE. This program is promoted by L & T and ICICI. Thus this is expected to be a good program.
Next year NIT Rourkela will start an MBA program. This should also be a very good program.

I came across the following ad for the IIPM School of management, Rourkela. Its web URL is the same as that as of the Indian Institute of Production Management in Kansvahal. The later has been around for 24 years. According to an announcement in their web page this will be the first year of their MBA program. Based on their faculty list and their promoters (ICICI and L & T) this program should become a ranked program in the near future. Its not clear if the advertised IIPM school of management in Rourkela will be a program conducted in Kansvahal campus or they will build a new campus in Rourkela.
One other thing to note is that they are both different from the IIPM – Indian School of Planning and Management about which there is some controversy.
