About

Anand Institute of Information Science (AIIS), Anand, was a private, self-financed postgraduate information-technology institute established in 2001 in Anand, Gujarat. The institute was established to provide information-technology education to students and originally operated an MCA programme. AIIS was run and managed by Shri Ramkrishna Seva Mandal (SRKSM). Its educational objective was to prepare students to respond to the changing requirements of information technology through postgraduate technical education. Initially, AIIS was affiliated with Sardar Patel University, and later became affiliated with Gujarat Technological University (GTU). In 2021, AIIS was merged with Anand Institute of Management, which had been established in 2004, to form Anand Institute of Management and Information Science (AIMIS). The merger brought management and information-technology education together under one institution.

The institute was located at the SRKSM Campus, Opposite Town Hall, Anand, Gujarat – 388001. Historical AIIS records identify the same Town Hall-area campus, while the present AIMIS website continues to list the SRKSM Campus as its location. The campus is situated in an established part of Anand and provides access to academic, commercial and public facilities in the surrounding city area. The institute's approach has focused on combining postgraduate technical education with practical exposure, problem-solving, industry-oriented learning and professional development. The official sources reviewed do not publish a verified campus-area figure, so a specific campus size should not be stated without further institutional confirmation.

Anand Institute of Information Science was initially affiliated with Sardar Patel University and subsequently became affiliated with Gujarat Technological University (GTU) in 2009. The institute's MCA programme was approved by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE). The current AIMIS institution continues to be affiliated with GTU and is approved by AICTE for its technical programmes. The current official sources reviewed do not establish a separate current NAAC grade, NBA accreditation or national ranking specifically for AIIS, and therefore no ranking is stated here. The important institutional development is the 2021 merger of AIIS with Anand Institute of Management into AIMIS.

AIIS functioned as the information-science component of the Shri Ramkrishna Seva Mandal's educational activities in Anand. It primarily focused on postgraduate computer applications and information technology. The original institute offered the Master of Computer Applications (MCA) programme in regular and lateral-entry formats. Following the 2021 merger with Anand Institute of Management, the academic activities became part of Anand Institute of Management and Information Science (AIMIS). The current institution operates with two principal academic areas: Management through MBA and Information Science/Computer Applications through MCA. This combined structure is intended to provide opportunities for interaction between management and information-technology disciplines.

The primary academic stream associated with AIIS was Information Technology and Computer Applications at the postgraduate level. Historically, AIIS offered a three-year full-time MCA programme along with an MCA direct-second-year lateral-entry route for eligible BCA and B.Sc. Computer Science/IT graduates. The present AIMIS offers a two-year full-time MCA programme with an approved intake of 60 seats. Admission to MCA is governed through the Admission Committee for Professional Courses (ACPC), Gujarat, with the applicable admission rules determining the selection process. The current eligibility criteria include a BCA, bachelor's degree in Computer Science Engineering or an equivalent qualification, or a B.Sc./B.Com./B.A. degree with Mathematics or Statistics/Business Mathematics at the required level, with the prescribed minimum marks. The current AIMIS page specifies 50% marks, with 45% for SC/ST/SEBC/EWS candidates, subject to prevailing norms. CMAT may also be required where applicable under the admission rules. Scholarship availability is governed by applicable government/institutional schemes and current eligibility conditions.

The present AIMIS campus provides infrastructure designed for management and information-technology education. Facilities include a well-equipped library, computer laboratories and a computer centre with internet connectivity, classrooms, academic learning resources and student-support facilities. The official facility page states that the computer laboratory has more than 194 computers, while additional computers are available for students and faculty. The library contains more than 28,185 books across 7,629 titles and subscribes to national and international journals and periodicals. Library services include reading and reference facilities, circulation, a book-bank facility, photocopying and orientation programmes. Separate boys' and girls' hostel accommodation is also available on the SRKSM campus.

Placement and career development are continued under the present Anand Institute of Management and Information Science (AIMIS). The institute maintains a dedicated placement portal and placement support for both MBA and MCA students. Activities include interaction with companies, career guidance, industry exposure and assistance with recruitment opportunities. The official placement portal maintains batch-wise information and currently includes MCA students from the 2024–26 batch, demonstrating that the MCA programme continues under AIMIS. The institute also states that its placement activities are intended to connect students with companies and help them prepare for employment through career-oriented development. The current AIMIS homepage publishes a 90% placement-rate figure, but because placement figures can vary by batch and methodology, this figure should be understood as an institutional claim rather than a guaranteed placement outcome for every student.

Anand Institute of Information Science has an established history in postgraduate information-technology education in Anand, beginning in 2001 with its MCA programme. Its academic journey progressed from affiliation with Sardar Patel University to Gujarat Technological University and AICTE approval. In 2021, AIIS merged with Anand Institute of Management to create Anand Institute of Management and Information Science (AIMIS), bringing MCA and MBA education together under one institution. Today, students seeking the continuation of AIIS's information-science and MCA education should refer to AIMIS, which offers MCA alongside MBA and provides academic, computing, library, hostel and placement facilities at the SRKSM Campus in Anand.
