Yes, in fact, GIBS has its own internal recognitions and awards system to recognize excellence in academics, leadership and co-curricular activities, among others. GIBS hosts annual award ceremonies such as the “Student of the Year” event to celebrate its top academic achievers and students who have made outstanding overall contributions to life on campus.

The following awards recognize the top achievers:

• Shakuntala Devi Award – awarded to the student who is the top academic performer in both BBA and PGDM;
•  Atal Bihari Vajpayee Award – awarded to the student who is the second-best academic performer;
•  J. P. Goyal Memorial Award – The Student of the Year awarded to an individual based on a combination of academic performance, leadership, co-curricular management and social contribution.

In addition to these main awards, GIBS also has awards such as research or special achievement awards, society based performance awards and leadership recognition, that assist in motivating students to excel in both academic and extra-curricular areas of development.

These awards help to foster a community of high performers, leaders, and overall personal growth within the GIBS student community.

The dress code requires students to wear formal business attire, which includes suits for events and interviews while smart casual clothing is acceptable, but shorts and chappals are prohibited in classrooms. Marketing programs achieve better placement results than HR programs because students who study marketing get more job opportunities and higher salary packages for brand roles, while Finance and Operations outcomes depend on ability, so students should select their study path based on their personal strengths.
