Education College

Offering multiple facilities and resources to foster Innovation, Leadership Development and Industry Exposure will help students beyond the traditional classroom experience.

1. Innovation & Entrepreneurship Support

The IRE (Innovation, Research & Entrepreneurship) programs are established by the Graduate Institute of Business Studies (GIBS) where students can participate in the creation of new business/startup ideas, researching specific industries/businesses to enhance knowledge and understanding regarding specific businesses.

Innovation labs, creativity rooms and project spaces were built to give students a place to develop their ideas and experiment with new concepts.

2. Industry Exposure Opportunities

Through guest lectures, corporate presentations, company visits, live projects, and internships, students interact with the business environment on a regular basis. These opportunities provide practical examples of the real world challenges that exist in the successful operations of various industries.

3. Leadership Development Activities.

There are numerous student clubs, management fests, cultural events, and leadership workshops on campus that develop leadership skills within students. These students have the opportunity to lead teams, organise events and enhance their communication and decision making skills.

4. Modern Academic Infrastructure

The GIBS campus is equipped with various forms of academic resources including digitally enabled classrooms, seminar halls, auditoriums, computer labs and a library. Furthermore, there is Wi-Fi throughout the GIBS campus to support research, online learning and collaboration.

5. Collaborative/Creative Spaces

Students have access to discussion room, open learning zones and recreational areas that support working in groups, sharing of ideas, and developing teamwork skills. 

In conclusion, GIBS provides various innovation programs, leadership activities and continuous interaction with the business environment.

A typical weekend at GIBS Bangalore is fun, active, and relaxing at the same time.

Students usually take part in sports matches like cricket, football, badminton, and indoor games. Friendly tournaments are common, so weekends feel energetic and lively. There are also cultural activities like dance practice, music, open-mic sessions, movie nights, and small fests where students showcase their talents.

For those who want to relax, the green campus is a big plus. Students sit on the lawns, walk around the campus, chat with friends, or just chill in open spaces. Some spend time in the café, hostel common areas, or reading quietly.

Overall, weekends at GIBS are a nice mix of sports, fun events, bonding with friends, and peaceful time in nature, helping students relax and enjoy campus life.

When it comes to preparing for graduation, students at GIBS receive job placement training from day 1 rather than waiting until their last semester. GIBS has developed a continuous placement training model where students receive ongoing training in soft skills such as Communication, Resume Building, Interviewing Skills and Business Etiquette along with academic classes. As a result of extensive industry experience through Live Projects, Internships, Corporate Presentations, Industrial Visits and the IRE Program, students gain hands-on experience prior to being placed in full-time employment. The Faculty Mentors and dedicated Placement Staff provide individualised support based on the student's strengths and area of specialisation; therefore, GIBS places students in Roles that fit their skills rather than in Random Roles. Students arrive at their final placements industry-ready. Recruiters view these students as industry-ready and confident when recruiting; therefore, they view GIBS as compared with other Business Schools, as providing a continual stream of qualified candidates and a strong connection with Recruiters.
