The importance of management education in India has been increasing continuously. There are many good educational institutions in the country where aspirants dream of getting admissions. Although top management colleges are present in many cities in India, Bangalore has made a big mark in the field of management education in recent years. Along with IIM, there are institutes like the Global Institute of Management Studies (GIBS), which is counted among the top business schools in Bangalore. Besides being a hub of premier business schools, there are many other reasons that make Bangalore the best management training destination. Let’s have a look at the top 5 reasons:

1. Top Management colleges

The first and foremost reason is the existence of excellent colleges. The top management colleges in the country are present in Bangalore only. Along with this, Bangalore University’s management degree is very prestigious both in the country and abroad. Whether it is an MBA (Master of Business Administration) or a PGDM (Post Graduate Diploma in Management) or a BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration) or any other management course, every course has been taught in the best colleges in Bangalore. Through its innovative and industry-specific practical education, GIBS has given a new dimension to management education through the years.

2. Top specializations

Along with being the top business schools, top specializations are also available in Bangalore. Along with traditional specializations like marketing, finance, operations, human resources, etc., new and innovative specializations like digital marketing, business analytics, and international business are also present in top colleges. Top management courses like Marketing Management (MM), Human Resource Management (HRM), Finance Management (FM), Operations & Supply Chain Management (OSCM), International Business (IB), Information Technology (IT), Business Analytics, Entrepreneurship Management (EM), and Digital Marketing specializations are available in GIBS. Apart from this, GIBS also provides the facility of dual specialization. So, if you are interested in single and dual specialization, Bangalore should be your ideal destination.

3. An opportunity to learn and grow

Practical education and innovative learning are equally important to traditional books and theories. That is why it becomes very important to see how much you get to learn and become better during management education. Bangalore is a city where there is no dearth of such opportunities. Community events, seminars, workshops, competitions, etc. are held regularly in the city, where students participate and move towards holistic development. Institutions like GIBS have a lot of on-campus and off-campus events where they make sure that students are involved.

4. Top Placement opportunities

Another thing that makes Bangalore special is the placement opportunities available here. Bangalore is the hub of multinational companies. It is world famous for its IT sector. At the same time, it is the main center of the world’s booming startup culture. This is the reason why talent is always in demand here. Students pursuing management education in Bangalore have a great chance of getting placements in top global firms. For consecutive years, GIBS’ students have been getting placements in the best companies in the country and abroad.

5. Awesome climate and environment

Although the aspect of weather and climate is evident, this is the factor that makes Bangalore the top city compared to others. Bangalore has the best climate amongst metro and semi-metro cities. In today’s pollution-filled environment, if a city keeps you physically and mentally improved, then nothing is better than this. Better study in a better environment always yields better results. The spectacular campus of GIBS reflects the wonderful climate of Bangalore.
