At GIBS Business School, Bangalore, the role of faculty extends beyond mere teaching in class. Professors at GIBS often work with students on industry-oriented projects, live case studies, and consulting assignments that connect a host of conceptual and theoretical aspects with business challenges faced in reality. The professionals having corporate and research backgrounds themselves involve students with projects on marketing strategy, financial analysis, business analytics, and entrepreneurship development. Professors supervise student-led startups, research papers, and business simulations under various initiatives of the Innovation, Research and Entrepreneurship (IRE) School and the GIBS Finishing School (GFS). Moreover, several professors engage in consulting and corporate training programs, where students may be allowed to assist and observe them to learn the practical aspects of using management concepts. By this involvement, there is a strong connect between the academic learning of the students and the professional practice, adequately preparing the learners to be industry-ready leaders.
