learn about our history
The Institute Was Established In Lahore In The Year 1986 As The Canadian School Of Management – Lahore Learning Centre.
Later the name was changed to The Pak-American Institute of Management Sciences (Pak-AIMS) to reflect the Institute’s Articulation of Agreement with College of Statern Island of City University of New York(CSI/CUNY), USA.
In view of its excellent performance in education over the years, Pak-AIMS was issued NOC by the University Grants Commission of Pakistan for the award of the charter in 1995. Consequently, the Institute was chartered by the Government of Punjab under Punjab Ordinance XXIII of 2002 and was renamed The Institute of Management Sciences (IMS).
IMS is a business school located in Gulberg, Lahore. Rigorous academic programmes, quality of education and congenial environment make IMS a right choice for professional education in the country.

The IMS success over the last 26 years can be attributed to a number of factors, but to me the over-arching driver of IMS achievements and success is the unwavering commitment to our mission. With an increasing trend towards globalisation there will always be a dire need for high-calibre business and IT professionals. IMS focuses on developing these human resources and bridges this gap with a mission to provide high-quality education, preparing our graduates to meet the ever-demanding challenges prevailing in the market. IMS firmly adheres to this consciousness, striving constantly towards academic excellence. The management, faculty, staff, and students work harmoniously towards this shared goal. At IMS the concept of professionalism implies accepting the responsibility for one’s job with a sense of dedication, zeal and commitment, and performing work to the highest possible level of professional ethics.
