Excellent placement support.
Placements: Placement at IIBS plays a major role in shaping my career. The team is highly supportive and works continuously to bring quality companies to the campus. They provide regular training in aptitude, technical skills mock, and resume building, which helped me gain more confidence. I'm proud to say that I got placed for a good package, which reflects the department.
Infrastructure: It has well-maintained classrooms with smartboards and a fully equipped library, wi-fi is a bit slow, and modern computer labs that support effective learning. It provides professions environment with seminar halls, project labs, well organized academic facilities.
Faculty: Faculty at IIBS are very experienced, industry-oriented, making classroom sessions interactive and practical, they focus on real-world case studies, presentation and group discussions, which help students understand corporate expectations. The curriculum is well structured, too.
Other: I belong to the PGDM 24-26 batch at IIBS Bangalore. I chose this course to build strong managerial and corporate skills, especially in finance.

Review of International institute of Business Studies.
Placements: All students are getting placed in their 2nd year. The placement team is very cooperative and supportive of students. Almost every student is getting placed in good companies, and companies are also providing a good package.
Infrastructure: We have very good infrastructure and facilities like a library, computer lab, canteen, classrooms, and seminar halls. Every room has a Wi-Fi facility. The college is surveilled with CCTV cameras. It provides all the basic facilities required in a college. Overall, the infrastructure is good.
Faculty: Our college staff members are very helpful and supportive of students. All staff members are well-qualified and experienced. They help students to understand concepts and also clear their doubts. They also interact with students very friendly and support them.

It has top-notch teachers. It offers the best interior design course in Bangalore.
Placements: I am just 4 months into the course, and I am not too sure about the placement drive regarding which companies will come or not. I have heard that the last month of the one-year course would be filled with internships and exams. We will find out at that time.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure in general is great. Classrooms are very wide and beautifully designed with glass. As our course is rather practical-work-based, we do not have requirements for any library here. There is a hostel here for students, but they usually guide us to stay at some nice PGs.
Faculty: Faculty members are the best part of the course. They are so hardworking and friendly. The course curriculum is beyond what I expected. We have so many site visits and industry visits, and I love that here. I love how the course is very practical and friendly. I look forward to learning more.

It is the best interior design institute in Bangalore.
Placements: The environment here provides a better opportunity to get placements in relation to interior designing. The institution is keen on making us train in such a way that it becomes easier for the final rounds. Apart from that, placements also come with good exposure towards the industry, so that's another plus point.
Infrastructure: The college itself is pretty immersive, with well-established classrooms. Many facilities are available, such as air-conditioners and digital learning. It even provides a mini snacks counter for students. All items are well-furnished. The college itself is decorated to inspire an interior awareness.
Faculty: Learning is mostly fun and expressive here, with faculty members guiding us really well. Classes have a practical approach towards learning. We are also provided academic tools, which make it easier to learn and indulge in practical work. I am looking forward to immersing myself more in this course, with better methods provided here.

Overall, it’s just a normal, average college.
Placements: The placement scenario is average. Sometimes, faculty use their personal connections to bring companies, which might be better than what the placement cell arranges. The placement cell mostly brings average companies, and placements are not guaranteed. Students are often encouraged to seek opportunities themselves to find good companies. Most of the startups that visit may provide jobs outside your domain.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average. The college looks like a coaching center rather than a large campus. Events are sometimes held in corridors or the gallery. Classrooms are good, well-ventilated, and air-conditioned. Hostel facilities are basic, with food being just average, but manageable.
Faculty: Faculty is very good. They are helpful and guide projects, provide practical training, or manage college events. Teaching is strong, exams are conducted fairly, strictly, and at regular intervals.

I am not totally satisfied because they say they have placements, but no placements are provided.
Placements: There are no placements in the college. In the beginning, they say that placements are available, but students do not actually get placed. Even toppers do not get placed. The college provides placement courses and training, but these are paid, and there is no proper placement assistance.
Infrastructure: The old degree block is not proper, and there are no good facilities. There is no mobile network available on campus. The college follows a strict dress code. No sleeveless or short dresses are allowed, even during cultural events. The canteen is also very bad. Overall, the college is not as good as we thought.
Faculty: The teaching is very good. There are very few students who fail. Teachers are amazing and highly qualified. They help students a lot, never show partiality, clear all doubts, and provide proper revision for all subjects.
Other: Fests are fewer compared to other colleges. The campus is worth it, but sports and cultural activities are very limited. Mobile usage is not allowed inside the campus, even during cultural events.
