ITM Navi Mumbai is one of the most technologically advanced business schools in the country. The entire campus is inter-connected through a 400 port LAN which brings the network to every desk, with a second layer of Wireless Networking, enabling connections any where.

Every student of ITM, past and present is alloted a life-time eMail account at itm.edu
Computer Labs
One computer lab, outfitted with thirty high-speed Pentium 4 computers, serve the student community.
The Linux Initative
ITM Navi Mumbai is the first ITM campus, and perhaps among the first business schools in India to embrace the Linux Operating System for all its servers as well as staff desktops. In collaboration with The Argon Company, the Institute has migrated its staff and faculty users and networks completely to the Linux Terminal Server Project software, providing unparalleled stability, data security, Spam and virus protection. Currently the entire network is based on Zero Cost Open Source Software and fully managed by an inhouse team.
The ITM Linux Initiative is being phased into all ITM campuses, with ITM Chennai already running on Linux Servers, Warangal & Bangalore being next on the list. Internet proxy servers at all cenetrs run on Linux to ensure virus free, secure and robust performance.
ITM Laptop Program
Students of ITM's PGDBM program (all campuses) and other Masters programs are supplied laptops by the institute. ITM partners with companies such as Acer, HP, IBM and Toshiba to offer the latest in laptop technology. WiFi enabled laptops are a boon to students, enabling them to connect to the ITM network and the Internet from anywhere on campus.
