The institute originally operated out of a temporary campus in Rajendra Nagar in Indore until 2003, before moving to its current campus. On 3 October 1998, the foundation stone of the Indore campus was laid by Mukesh Ambani, chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries (RIL), a Fortune Global 500 company and India's most valuable company by market value. ^[19] The current campus is located at Prabandh Shikhar, on Rau-Pithampur Road, close to the Pithampur Special Economic Zone, ^[20] off Agra-Bombay Highway. Situated atop a scenic hillock, the IIM Indore campus is 193 acre by area. ^[21]

Student Residences

The present campus started with 4 hostels each housing 60 students and was gradually increased to 18 hostels (for PGP and IPM students). Rooms in all the hostels have direct computer connectivity to the main LAN that provides an 1 Gbit/s internet connectivity via National Knowledge Network. For the One Year Full-Time MBA (EPGP) students, a separate hostel has been set up that can house almost 200 students. In addition to these, IIM Indore also has a Management Development Centre (MDC) which houses the MDP participants. A hostel dedicated to participants of Fellow Programme in Management (FPM) has been constructed recently.

Learning Centre

Learning Center (LC) is IIM Indore's library. The learning centre offers a quiet space to study along with plethora of magazine, journals and newspapers subscriptions. The entire LC collection of books, print journals/magazines, and its wide range of e-collection including e-journals, e-books, online databases, CD-ROM collection etc., are accessible through the institute's local network and off-campus using in-house routing VPN.

Due to members' growing needs and preferences, LC focuses more on subscriptions to online resources than printed documents. In the last few years, e-resources of the IIMI LC increased considerably in terms of number and subject coverage. In addition to circulation and acquisition services, the Learning Centre provides reference, photocopying and scanning services to members. Documents, which are not available in the IIMI LC, are sourced from other (IIMs, IITs among other) institutions through a robust interlibrary loan arrangement.

External membership is granted under specific specified terms and conditions to business/industrial and government setups and academics (Research Scholars) and IIMI Alumni.
