At GIBS Bangalore, students get support for projects, research and entrepreneurship through the IRE (Innovation, Research & Entrepreneurship) programme. There are workshops, activities and expert sessions where students can actually work on their own ideas and projects. 

I did my PGDM at GIBS, and I liked that we were encouraged to work on practical ideas instead of only doing regular assignments. Students get guidance to develop business ideas, research work, innovative products and business plans.

So overall, if you're interested in projects, research or starting something of your own, GIBS gives you a good platform to explore it and learn by actually doing it.

I think GIBS Bangalore stands out mainly because of the overall exposure students get, not because of just one particular thing.

I did my PGDM at GIBS, and we had a good mix of classroom learning, industry interactions, internships, live projects, events and placement preparation. The finishing-school programme was also something I found useful for improving communication and getting interview-ready. 

For me, the biggest difference was that there were opportunities to actually apply what we learned instead of only studying theory. That made the PGDM experience more practical and helped me feel more confident when I started looking for jobs.

For GIBS Bangalore, the application process is pretty straightforward for both BBA and PGDM.

You basically fill the online application form, upload the required details/documents and pay the application fee. After submitting it, the GIBS team gets in touch with you for the next steps. For BBA, the process follows Bangalore University norms, and an interview is part of the process. 

For PGDM, you can also submit your entrance exam details such as CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, ATMA, GMAT or KMAT, depending on what you have taken.

I did my PGDM at GIBS, and I remember the admission process being quite simple and easy to follow. So whether you're applying for BBA or PGDM, you don't have to worry about a very complicated procedure.
