GIBS Business School

When an international student wants to join GIBS, the admissions team guides them step by step. They help with understanding the admission process, required documents, and eligibility so the student knows what to prepare. The team also gives information about visa requirements, fees, and important dates, making it easier for students from other countries to plan ahead.

GIBS provides support in communication too, so if a student has questions or needs help filling out forms, the staff is available to explain things clearly. Once the student is admitted, GIBS helps with orientation, settling into the campus, and accommodation, so international students can adjust well to college life in Bangalore.

The GIBS Faculty incorporates significant industry relevance in the classroom by utilizing real business experience with academic theory. Most faculty members have worked in corporate or consultancy roles prior to joining GIBS, allowing them to frequently use current business examples (both live and case studies), current business practices, and demonstrate industry trends in class. Classes typically have a combination of simulations, role play, live-case projects, and corporate assignments from real-world businesses. Additionally, the Faculty has a regular practice of hosting guest speakers from industry, alumni, and/or CXO's to provide students with an understanding of the practical challenges of working in a business environment beyond their textbook studies. Faculty also work closely with their students through mentoring, providing guidance for work experience, and providing project feedback to ensure all students are prepared for new jobs and can successfully apply their classroom knowledge to real-world business situations upon graduation.

Yes, GIBS Business School provides opportunities for international placements and internships that are limited and based on a few partnerships and programs instead of being available to every GIBS student. The school partners with international universities and organizations to host students in countries like Canada, the U.S., and Dubai, depending on the availability of positions and the student's performance.

So as part of GIBS' Global Immersion Programs, students also travel to Singapore, Malaysia, and Dubai for industrial visits, workshops, and university visits; these experiences help students build an international corporate network and learn from world-class business professionals.

While the ability for students to receive international placements will ultimately depend on job availability, the eligibility of students, as well as recruiter participation, GIBS supports its students' goals for global internships or global assignments through GIBS' corporate relations team and with global partners, thereby increasing the student's opportunity to work internationally in support of their career development.
