It's the best college for MBA course.

Faculty: High-quality instruction is consistently recommended for learning and growth. Businesses are frequently large, and industrial activity is heavily pushed. The curriculum is consistent with industry practices. All of the teachers and staff are really helpful. Semester exams are rigorous, but around 85% of students pass.

My honest review of my college.

Faculty: One thing I loved about the college is its painstaking faculty members. Most of the professors have pretty good experience. They are readily available for doubts even after the lecture. There are freshers too, but do not worry, they provide notes. Internals, mid exams, semester exams, and lab exams are conducted in a professional manner. The course curriculum is a bit outdated, but professors bring a lot of new topics for discussion. The pedagogy is also a bit outdated, considering facts that lo...

The campus and infrastructure facilities are good, but the fee is high.

Faculty: We have experienced faculty who will help to improve our potential. They all have at least 10 years of teaching experience. They are also good at case study writing, so this will improve the practical experience of students about what will happen in an organization.

Faculty: Faculty was highly qualified and knowledgeable. There were a number of faculty members who came from an industrial background. Some of them had degrees from foreign universities. Faculty was the best point of the college, and we had many decorated people with Ph.D. degrees. They were interactive in class. The exams were very frequent as we were in a trimester system.

Almost satisfied because of the guidance of faculty members, and good placement opportunities.

Faculty: IBS Hyderabad has a huge number of highly qualified, professional, and knowledgeable faculty members in each and every department. They not only teach students for examination purposes but also guide placements and meet real-world challenges in the future. The MBA curriculum designed by ICFAI is relevant as it gives a picture of real-world problems and scenarios mainly while dealing with case studies which is the compulsory part of each paper.

It is not value for money and only viable if we crack the top 10% of job roles.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified and most of them are PhD holders, and with industry experience. We get good quality guest lecturers from the industry. It has an updated course curriculum with a wide variety of electives. Dual specialisation is available. It has absolute marking and strict paper checking. However, internals have a greater weightage. 80% is the passing rate.

Overall the campus is good but the security rules and regulations are a bit over.

Faculty: Academics has provided with the best faculty members and a well-managed and planned curriculum. The campus strictly follows the curriculum. Faculty members are very nice, especially marketing ones. There are some who are not that much appreciable. Examination grading is provided as it gives the most importance to internal marks.

College is good. ROI is lower as compared to other colleges.

Faculty: There are only a limited number of faculty members who are worth the fees paid. Some faculty members cannot clear our doubts. Some faculty members have a very good amount of knowledge but do not know how to teach students. Some faculty members don't even teach anything in the class.

Every experience is as good as you make it, but you might have a better chance of making it at IBS.

Faculty: The professors are all seasoned and well-learned and are very helpful to all their students. They construct and deliver their courses well and ensure that the students all take away from it. The course contents are updated regularly after conferences with placement partners to ensure the students have all the necessary skills and are industry-ready.

Build your future with IBS.

Faculty: The teachers are very intelligent and supportive. There are 30 courses out of which 22 are compulsory courses and 8 are electives. The courses cover up the basic business management topics so that we develop strong fundamentals. Also, the professors provide hands on teaching with group discussions, mock tests, quizzes, and presentations. The exams at IBS are the toughest, even passing is not easy. You need to prepare well and keep an eye on the repeating questions.
