History
NMIMS University, established in 1981 by the Shri Vile Parle Kelavani Mandal (SVKM) in Mumbai, started as a modest institution offering a two-year full-time master's program in management studies. Initially housed in a small setup above Bhaidas Hall in Vile Parle, it had four full-time faculty members and a library of 3,162 books, catering to 40 students.
In the years following its inception, NMIMS rapidly expanded both in scope and reputation. By 2003, it achieved the status of a deemed university under the University Grants Commission (UGC) Act of 1956, allowing it to offer diverse programs across various disciplines.{{Cite web |title=About NMIMS |url=https://cis.nmims.edu/about-nmims |access-date=2024-05-21 |website=cis.nmims.edu}}

Controversies
- NMIMS was barred by the University Grants Commission from offering distance learning and online courses in February 2023{{Cite web |date=2023-04-18 |title=UGC bars NMIMS from offering distance learning, online courses for violating norms - BusinessToday |url=https://www.businesstoday.in/latest/story/ugc-bars-nmims-from-offering-distance-learning-online-courses-for-violating-norms-377896-2023-04-18 |access-date=2025-05-29 |website=Business Today |language=en}} for offering Online courses without UGC approval.
