WHAT IS MANAGEMENT:
Management is the process of getting activities completed efficiently and effectively with
and through other people.
It plays an important role in the success of any field irrespective of its typology. It is also
helps in saving to lot of time and money in various issues in various sectors, so the
requirement of professionals in this field are must.
The quality of the professional is directly proportional to the quality of institute from which
he is a product of, so institutes for management studies need to be designed with utmost
care and concentration.
The atmosphere and the space cultivated in the institute help in developing the knowledge
in different ways. Vibrant indoor spaces and interacting spaces helps in bringing out the best
of student.
HISTORY:
To solve this problem, the Planning Commission in 1959 invited Professor George Robbins of
the University of California to help in setting up an All India Institute of Management
Studies.
Based on his recommendations, the Indian government decided to set up two elite
management institutes, named Indian Institutes of Management.
Calcutta and Ahmedabad were chosen as the locations for the two new institutes
ACCORDING TO STRATEGY
EVOLUTION:
Campus buildings are permanent structures which ideally should last a few centuries, but, as
the environment changes, the Institutional functions change to include must constantly keep
in the view, the inherent dynamism of this premise.
The old gurukul system, with its one relationship between guru and shishya, had its obvious
advantages, but today such an ideal is necessarily precluded, with increasing the number of
students in relation to qualified teachers, advance of specialized knowledge, economic
constraints and time limitations.
Campus is like a city on a small scale. Ideally it should be set apart, though not isolated from
the ambience of the city in which it is located, since both city and campus will derive mutual
benefits from interaction. The campus from comprises academic and residential buildings,
interlinked spaces, connecting pathways and an administrative centre. Usually a campus is
centralized around a core which could be a large open space or plaza, dominated by an
important feature such as the library or any Structured or natural feature.
Educationalists and planners advocate an ideal university form that would be an urban in
filling a sector of the city where the university form that would be mixed with other
building types.
In the case of the campus of Nalanda University, there were over 3000monks a large
number of students live together in a group of monasteries designed for boarding and
lodging.
The development of this campus s a cluster of monasteries and spaces around a stupa gave
it a quality, scale and identify.
Campuses built in the early 20th century beveled amorphously in a piecemeal fashion.
These include the Aligarh Muslim University, Delhi University. Unfortunately, the integrity
of campus form and character has largely destroyed due to inconsistency in design
approach over the years and lack of a master plan to provide necessary in design approach
IDEAL CAMPUS
The campus should express something about the quality of its academic life, as its role as a
citizen of the community in which it is located.
The campus also represents many different things to various groups of people who, live,
learn, teach, or visit there.
It plays the role of home, museum, place of employment social center, park, area for
dissent, and forum for the search for truth. All these functions must be designed not today
but for the future.
The creation of the unified picture or environmental experience, a completely synthesized
composite of all physical elements as they are seen together at one or more time.
The ideal of composite, the blending of landscapes and building, will be examined as a major
and actor in conceiving an ideal campus.
The idea and modern building In campus should be an instrument of education, a machine
for learning also stirred and ears about its intrinsic merits as a style for campuses that gave
AIM:
OBJECTIVES:
To provide good educational facilities for training men and women for careers in
management and to improve their decision making skills and administrative competence of
practicing managers.
To provide comfortable and tenable sports amenities appropriately zoned in the site.
SCOPE:
This is an attempt to understand the impact of campus planning and overall performance of
the student.
This study is aimed at reaching a general conclusion on the nature of campus planning. The
endeavor is to give the user an environment conducive to their betterment both as students
and individuals.
Exploring and utilization of latest construction techniques and contemporary materials
coming up in the present construction industry.
Maximize the capture of natural light into the blocks to conserve energy and also to give a
lively appeal to the human.
LIMITATIONS:
It is a very large-scale project I will have to limit myself to the overall layout including zoning and
building plans with elevation and sections
The structural aspects and construction details are not dealt in detail
Interiors are not to be considered.
No consideration of cost effective in design.
Design of various landscape elements.
Details of plumbing and services are not considered.
From the past 60 years India was developing nation only, we have seen a fast growth in all
the sectors of life.
We also know that to continue this rapid pace of growth steady we need educated people
who consistently focus on the growth of the nation & turn this country to a developed
nation from a developing one.
We all know that the surroundings affect the person the most.
The quality of education we provide to our young generations is what do we expect to see
as result from them. If the environment provided to them is healthy then they will develop
as good individuals.

FEATURES OF CAMPUS:
The core feature: All the buildings are oriented to a central court -typical “naalukettu” of
Kerala’s traditional architecture giving a sense of unity.
The buildings are connected by walkways which defines this central green oasis.
This central area holds an open air theatre.
The circle of contemplation: A circular green area is located in the front facing the entrance
of the academic block. It is covered by pergola along the sides with vegetation growing on it.
View-The entrance area of the main building is approached by winding roads.
The building will be visible only when one reaches the top creating a sense of surprise.
Use of locally available materials–exposed stone work, tiles used for pavements. Elements
of traditional architecture of Kerala reflected in the buildings-sloping roof and Mangalore
tiles.
Interesting play of built & open spaces gives a feel of the building interacting with the
nature.
DESIGN INSPIRATION:
Ideal combination of modern movement with ancient spiritual conditions. Doshi has drawn
inspiration from

one can experience weaving of indoor and outdoor with transitional spaces.
ZONING:
Influence of IIMA zoning.
Site divided into two halves. northern for staff hosing, and southern for educational blocks.
Educational block includes administrative and library block and dormitories for southern
side.
This zone is wrapped with blanket of greenery, screens of unwanted noise eliminating from
roads and breaks visual link with surrounding spaces.
The long-duration post graduate programmes of the Institute comprise the Post Graduate
Programme in Management (PGPM); the Post Graduate Programme in Enterprise
Management (PGPEM); the Post Graduate Programme in Public Policy and Management
(PGPPM);
the one year full-time Executive Post Graduate Programme in Management (EPGP), and
the Fellow Programme in Management (FPM), which is a doctoral programme.
All these programmes are very highly rated and IIMB alumni occupy senior managerial and
academic positions around the world.
IIM Bangalore is also mentoring a new IIM at Visakhapatnam which started its operations in
September, 2015. IIM Bangalore’s staff, faculty, students and alumni contributed
significantly to building this new Institute with solid foundations, one that from the outset
has the quality and feel worthy of an IIM.
ACADEMIC BLOCKS:
The academic blocks were designed by Stein, Doshi & Balla architects led by B. V.
Doshi and were completed by 1983.
Entrance to academic block is through a
double height porch.
Reception with different height creating
interest, play of light and shadows creates
interesting pattern.
academic block is at north-east side of the
wing, provided with courtyard.
continuous band of windows on the south and north façades of the building not only
have given a richer experience in perspective but also brings in desired amount of light
and air inside the building.
Currently, there are blocks lettered from A to P where classes, faculty offices and other
administrative entities are located.
The classes are fully air conditioned with state of art facilities.
CLASSROOMS:
Classrooms are organized in cluster of two or three around open court and semi open spaces
to interlink them.
Never accessed directly from movement spaces
or corridors, instead there is common space
between classrooms, acting as pause point before
entering to the classroom activity.
Designed as mini amphitheatres with semi-
circular steps increasing eye contact and eye
vision.
All classrooms are provided with chalk boards, black boards, computer projection facilities.
Mainly classrooms divided into four types.
Room for 170 students:1
Carpet area:360. 3sq.m
Room for 60 students:5
ADMINISTRATION:
• The administration is placed on the north –eastern side. the ‘open office’ planning in this
block provides flexibility for reorganization of the interior space.
• The faculty blocks are connected to each other with a pergola roof passage enclosing a
beautiful landscaped courtyard.
LIBRARY:
Library is a focal point of the campus being
most active space.
Library space is organized around an atrium, which brings in light and imparts a feeling of
openness.
Service spaces staircases, corridors, offices, placed around the atrium.

MATERIALS:
Material used here, which saves the permanent cost of maintenance and also the cost
of plastering and finishing by using the locally available “bethal-sorr stone” , which also
look aesthetically good.
GENERAL OBSERVATIONS:
There is a constant movement of students to and from the dormitories, all through the day.
Two routes taken are:
a) From the covered passage, through the class-room court to the semi open court.
b) The other route taken by the students is from
The staircase with a slit opening is used almost only by faculty, or other users, approaching
the faculty wing.
The three staircases in the passage with planters and skylights, are most extensively used by
staff and students, as these are the closest connections between the canteen, classroom
and the staff cabins.
The staircase in the passage with pergolas is used only and very rarely, by the student
coming down this passage and heading towards the upper level classrooms.

navigation depending on use.
On the basis of the desktop and case studies, conclusions can be drawn out which are
summarised below.
In business schools the most important aspect is to create an environment that discourages
hierarchy and supports interaction between various occupants of the institution.
The students and the faculty should be seen as separate entities and given space and time
to themselves along with making it sure that in spite of individual spaces the entities are
inspired towards teamwork.
The form of the construction is of is a significant factor in its perception by the patrons. The
kind of building expected in academic institution and especially a business school is one
which states authority along with merging with surroundings.
Breakout or gathering spaces are perceived as crucial and vitally necessary spaces in a
business school as they cater to utmost quality of a business school i.e. interaction among
students, faculty and the concerned personnel. The distribution of such spaces throughout
the campus is absolutely essential except for the part of departments like administration,
publication etc.
The main component of a business school could be stated as classrooms. The layout and
design of classrooms is of critical nature. The design should encourage face to face
interactions more between the students and should not be based on the making the
speaker the center of attention. The projection and the boards should be taken care of.
Secondary writing spaces for the faculty should be provided through the classroom. The
space for the control equipment and personnel who handle them should be taken into
consideration while designing classrooms.
