Education College

For me, GIBS Bangalore never felt like a college where you just attend classes and go back home. There was always something going on, so college life stayed interesting and you were constantly learning something new.

What I enjoyed the most was:

• Internship opportunities.

• Guest lectures.

• Industry visits.

• Workshops and fun learning activities.

• Placement training.

• Friendly faculty and a good campus atmosphere.

I think the biggest difference for me was the confidence I gained. I became more comfortable talking to people, working in teams, and trying new things. Looking back, I feel I learned a lot beyond academics, and that's what made my experience at GIBS really special.

The student enrollment at GIBS Business School is really based on the programme and the type of student being enrolled, but as an average number you can expect:

• PGDM: Between 240–300 a year (most commonly reported numbers are either 240 or 300)
• BBA: Approximately 180

When you add these together, the average number of students admitted to both programs every year is:

• PGDM: 250–300
• BBA: 180

The size of these admissions allows GIBS to have a good level of involvement in the classroom, as well as allowing the students access to an adequate amount of exposure to business through industry visits, club activities, internships and placements while still ensuring an adequate level of interaction with the teaching faculty.

From my experience at GIBS Bangalore, placements were actually quite structured and preparation starts from the beginning itself. It's not something you suddenly face in the final semester — you keep getting trained through internships, presentations, communication sessions, and mock interviews.

• I am from 2025 batch and I personally got placed at around 9 LPA 

• My friend Suraj got a package of around 16 LPA

• Average range for many students is around 8–9 LPA

• the highest packages can go around 16–17 LPA+ depending on performance

• Internship support is given during the programme itself

• Regular placement training, aptitude practice, and interview preparation sessions

• Companies visit for roles in Finance, Marketing, HR, Sales, and Operations etc.

For me, GIBS felt like a place where you don't just study and wait for placements — you keep building your skills throughout, so when placements come, you are already ready and confident.

As a student at GIBS Bangalore, one thing I really appreciated was how involved the faculty members were in student life. They don't just come, take classes, and leave. Whether it was orientation, college events, presentations, projects, or mentoring sessions, the faculty were always around to guide and support us.

Because, For me:

• They were approachable whenever we needed help or guidance

• During orientation, they made new students feel comfortable and welcomed

• They actively encouraged us to participate in events and activities

• Regular mentoring sessions helped with academics as well as career-related questions

• They were genuinely interested in seeing students grow and perform well

What I liked most was that the faculty felt more like mentors than just professors. Their involvement made it easier to learn, ask questions, and feel confident throughout the program.

GIBS Business School actively fosters a collaborative environment for students through active participation with peers, team interaction, and academic and professional teamwork activities. By engaging with one another's ideas, sharing perspectives, and learning from each other's experiences through case studies, live projects, presentations, business simulations, research assignments, and group discussions, students develop and refine their communication, teamwork, leadership, analytical thinking, and problem-solving skills through the peer-learning model.

Students are encouraged to work collaboratively with their peers on a variety of projects throughout their tenure at GIBS such as management fests, TEDx events, entrepreneurship events, workshops, cultural events, and club events which contributes to the creation of a campus community that is highly involved, dynamic, and proactive in creating an interactive and stimulating environment.

Throughout group work, the faculty members of GIBS provide continuous mentoring and guidance to students to support how to work together effectively, coordinate their efforts, and maximize their practical learning experiences.

Through its collaborative and cooperative culture, GIBS provides a basis upon which to improve both subject matter knowledge and build confidence/networking, creativity/adaptability, develop team management, to be prepared for impactful careers in industry and have the necessary competencies to meet today's corporate challenges.
