ABOUT THE INSTITUTE

Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research (IGIDR) is an advanced research institute established and fully funded by the Reserve Bank of India for carrying out research on development issues from a multi-disciplinary point of view.

On December 28, 1987 the campus was inaugurated by Late. Shri Rajiv Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of India.

Subsequently, the Institute was recognized as a Deemed To Be University under Section 3 of the UGC Act. Starting as a purely research institution, it rapidly developed into a full-fledged teaching cum research organisation when it launched a Ph.D. program in the field of development studies in 1990. In 1995, the institute initiated the M. Phil programme. The M.Sc. programme commenced in 2003 to introduce students to the world of research at an early stage.

Vision and Values

We strive to conduct and promote research on development from a broad inter-disciplinary perspective. The institute undertakes projects and activities that are useful in furthering development and social welfare. It strives to promote co-operative endeavour and interaction between research scholars and institutions in India and abroad, while simultaneously encouraging specialized training for advanced degrees (Masters and Doctorate).

MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR

Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research (IGIDR) is an advanced teaching and research Institute. It offers M.Sc (Econ.), M.Phil & Ph.D degrees in development studies and provides professional training in most branches of economics from a multi-disciplinary perspective.

The teaching program has a cutting edge curriculum and accomplished faculty. It has a vibrant student body which is diverse in its academic background as well as national character.
