IBS hyderabad has one of the best infrastructures among private b-school, with a huge lush green campus, well-hostels, modern classrooms, a library with vast resources, wifi facilities and dedicated spaces for sports.
From the moment I arrived at IBS Hyderabad, the sheer size of the 90-acre campus caught my attention. The buildings are modern, and the classrooms are generally well-equipped with projectors and sound systems. There’s also a robust Wi-Fi network that makes online research and group projects more convenient. The library—spanning multiple floors—offers an extensive collection of books, journals, and databases, which I find very helpful for case studies and assignments. However, because the campus is quite large, getting from one corner to another can be time-consuming, and some facilities (like certain hostel blocks) could use more regular maintenance
We have a very good college infrastructure like digital boards in all classrooms, lecture theatres and lecture halls. It is peaceful here as it is far away from city. Wifi is there throughout the campus except mess halls.
