Apart from academics, the students engage themselves in co-curricular and extracurricular activities.
History of XAMI
The genesis of XAMI can be traced in the Yogyakarta Forum of the International Association of Jesuits Business Schools (IAJBS) in July 1995 when an opportunity was provided for the representatives of few Indian Management Institutes to meet and resolve to promote collaboration among its Institutes.
The Association of Catholic Management Schools came together and XLRI took the initiative to form an association called the “Xavier Association of Management Institutes” (XAMI) in Goa on November 1996. It is a registered body under the Societies Registration Act 21,1860.
Since inception, XAMI has remained steadfast in its commitment to enhancing the capabilities of member institutes and promoting a value-based approach to management education, and fostering research, learning, and teaching in the field of management. Through collaborative efforts and knowledge exchange, we have not only elevated the quality of educational programs but also instilled in our students the values of professionalism, ethics, and social responsibility.
