It is beneficial only for marketing students, finance and hr students face a big problem with placements, so the college needs to work on problems with the placement cell.

Excellent placement support.

Placements: Placement at IIBS plays a major role in shaping my career. The team is highly supportive and works continuously to bring quality companies to the campus. They provide regular training in aptitude, technical skills mock, and resume building, which helped me gain more confidence. I'm proud to say that I got placed for a good package, which reflects the department.

Infrastructure: It has well-maintained classrooms with smartboards and a fully equipped library, wi-fi is a bit slow, and modern computer labs that support effective learning. It provides professions environment with seminar halls, project labs, well organized academic facilities.

Faculty: Faculty at IIBS are very experienced, industry-oriented, making classroom sessions interactive and practical, they focus on real-world case studies, presentation and group discussions, which help students understand corporate expectations. The curriculum is well structured, too.

Other: I belong to the PGDM 24-26 batch at IIBS Bangalore. I chose this course to build strong managerial and corporate skills, especially in finance.

Overall, it’s just a normal, average college.

Placements: The placement scenario is average. Sometimes, faculty use their personal connections to bring companies, which might be better than what the placement cell arranges. The placement cell mostly brings average companies, and placements are not guaranteed. Students are often encouraged to seek opportunities themselves to find good companies. Most of the startups that visit may provide jobs outside your domain.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average. The college looks like a coaching center rather than a large campus. Events are sometimes held in corridors or the gallery. Classrooms are good, well-ventilated, and air-conditioned. Hostel facilities are basic, with food being just average, but manageable.

Faculty: Faculty is very good. They are helpful and guide projects, provide practical training, or manage college events. Teaching is strong, exams are conducted fairly, strictly, and at regular intervals.

Good placements and facilities.

Placements: Placements department is good. Companies are good that come.

Infrastructure: The college provides us with Wi-Fi, smart board, and library for student use, and laptops are given. The college has exchange programs and interactive sessions. The college gives hostel facility as well for 1 year, and transport is provided as well for a price.

Faculty: Faculty is qualified and have PhDs mostly. We have a library where you can borrow books from. It also has e-library. Faculty is okay too. Any doubts can be rectified with them or from textbooks as well. We have a membership card for library to avail its benefits. Overall good college and faculty, and you can make friends from different cultures and interact with them to broaden your inter-region friends.

Small infrastructure with extensive knowledge and scope.

Placements: Student placement is around 90-95%, and it depends on the performance of the student in the interview. The median of the college is between 6 and 8 LPA. Approximately 95% got internships. I got a project coordinator role. Before my final placement, the college allowed us to do jobs.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is small but has all the facilities related to study. Wi-Fi works fine, and there are 2 computer labs and also Bloomberg terminals, with which you can get certification. There are two libraries. I don’t know about the quality of the hostel and food.

Faculty: All faculty members have an MBA degree, and the majority of the faculty have a Ph.D. in their specialization. The knowledge of the faculty is good, and the curriculum of the syllabus is updated according to industry requirements, which provides more help to the students.
