IM Kashipur is planned as a residential campus built on an area of 78.4 Hectares (196 acres) to eventually have a built up area of approximately 1.5 Lac square meter campus. The campus consists of academic area, residential area for students, residential area for faculty and staff and other support facilities. The growth of the campus is planned in different phases with milestones with a corresponding increase in the physical infrastructure and support facilities to accommodate an increase in the number of students in established programs and new programs of the future. IIM Kashipur campus is envisioned as self-contained, sustainable township and based on concepts of sustainable development and living.

A large berm has been created along the frontage of the site along the future state highway. This will provide reduction in ambient noise levels in the campus as well as provide visual vista from inside to the occupants.
