The new GIBS Business School (GIBS) campus features thoughtfully designed modern education facilities combined with green space and an emphasis on student-centric areas that promote improved learning and daily experiences.
Green, serene environment – The campus features a landscape design with well-kept lawns, flower beds, walkways and the opportunity to sit outside, giving students a peaceful place to relax and study in groups or creatively think.
Modern design of academic facility – The classrooms are spacious with air conditioning and are equipped with digital teaching tools, smartboards and wi-fi throughout the campus; therefore, all classes will be interactive with technology. Seminar halls, auditoriums, innovation/function rooms are designated for use for workshops, guest speakers and events.
Collaborative and innovation zones – The creativity labs, discussion rooms, and collaboration areas provide students with a place to work on group projects, conduct research and develop ideas related to entrepreneurship. These spaces promote working together and apply what they have learned to problem-solving through experiential learning.
Student Activity and cultural spaces – The open areas and amphitheater-type sections of campus will be utilized throughout the year for cultural events, leadership lectures, performance opportunities, and community gatherings — all of which will help students build confidence, network socially and explore creative opportunities.
Recreation/sports areas – Outdoor sports fields and courts, indoor game areas and fitness areas are available for students to participate and to relieve stress through physical activity while maintaining balance between their academic and physical wellbeing.
Social and Comfortable Living Spaces: Hostel accommodations, living rooms, dining commodities, and lounge facilities are designed to promote comfort, safety, and communal living; as such, they promote social interaction between students and help to strengthen their friendship over time.
To summarise, the design of the campus creates a harmonious relationship between nature, comfort, collaboration, and modern structures in order to provide an educational environment conducive to developing student leadership skills and enhancing the overall student experience.
