XIM (Xaviers Institute of Management) plans a second campus in Orissa
April 23rd, 2007
Update: Telegraph also reports on this.
Business Standard reports that XIM, Bhubaneswar is about to open another campus in Orissa. XIM is scouting for 100 acres of land and has a budget of 50 crores for the second campus. It has applied to AICTE for doubling its capacity. There is no definite word regarding where the second campus will be, but there were some early rumors that it could be near Dhenkanal. If it indeed opens near Dhenkanal, then it will be a big addition to Dhenkanal’s higher education offerings. Currently, Dhenkanal has the branch campus of Indian Institute of Mass Communication. With an XIM campus it will get into the national consciousness as both XIM and IIMC admit students through national level entrance examinations.

Senior citizens from Berhampur have requested the XIM to open its proposed campus in the Berhampur-Gopalpur stretch which will give further boost to the industrial climate in the greater Berhampur region with STPI, multiproduct SEZ and Gopalpur mega port in the pipeline. Also, there is no quality management institute in South Orissa and XIMs presence will be great.

Berhampur-Gopalpur would be a great location for this.
