GIBS Bangalore uses modern campus facilities to make learning more comfortable and close to real corporate environment. The idea is to help students feel like they are already in a professional workplace while studying.

Facilities like AC digital classrooms help students focus better with smart boards and presentations instead of only chalk-and-talk teaching. WiFi campus allows easy access to online learning, research, and digital assignments.

Auditoriums are used for seminars, guest lectures, and events where students interact with industry people and improve confidence. Labs and creativity rooms help students work on projects, group activities, and innovative ideas in a practical way.

Compared to other elite business schools, GIBS Business School is generally easier to get into as long as students possess sufficiently high marks and have good communication skills to apply.

For MBA/PGDM admissions, students must submit entrance exam results from CAT, MAT, CMAT, or XAT, and then perform well in a group discussion (GD) and personal interview (PI). The college places the highest importance on assessing students' level of confidence, quality of communication, academic record, and total personality.

In general, BBA admission criteria have much less specific requirements than MBA/PGDM admission criteria. Most of the time, students will only submit their 12th grade (high school) marks and participate in a simple interview or counseling session.

At GIBS Business School, we run numerous flagship events, seminars, management fests, guest speakers, and entrepreneurship programs, which allow our students to directly engage with top executives and business leaders.

These events offer the following benefits to our students:

•  Exposure to current business ideas and market trends
•   The opportunity to meet with CEOs, entrepreneurs, HR managers, and other speakers from the corporate world
•   Improved networking and communication skills
•   An understanding of what is expected of graduates by employers
•   The opportunity to experience internships and job placement opportunities

Students will also have the opportunity to participate in these events by:

• Participating in presentations and discussions
•  Asking questions of industry experts
•   Working together as a team in competition and workshops
•   Building confidence through engagement with professionals and public speaking

The GIBS Business School believes in the importance of experiential education, which is why these flagship events are designed to bridge the gap between the classroom and the business community.

A number of students that have participated in such activities have expressed the following:

•  Gaining industry-related knowledge
•   The development of their professional presence
•   Enhanced readiness for job placement
