The Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Jammu has launched a summer school programme for classes 10th, 11th, and 12th students that will commence on June 27 and conclude on July 1, 2022. The online summer school has been launched in view of the overwhelming response that the programme received last year.

Professor B S Sahay, Director, IIM Jammu, first introduced the "Summer School" programme with the aim of engaging young students positively during the pandemic. Through this program, he intends to expand students' knowledge across various disciplines and help them explore new career options. One of the most interesting parts that the summer school offers to its students is that it allows them to get involved in the week-long interactive sessions with engaging programme modules from the faculty of IIM Jammu. Moreover, the institute does not charge any fees from the students as it is an IIM Jammu-sponsored program.
