      IBS in a nutshell

      Anonymous Posted on 25 Mar'26
      PGPM - Batch of 2023-01-01

      Academics

      I am studying PGDM in finance and analytics. Quality of teaching is exceptional. From student teacher engagement to peer to peer learning. Faculty often engage us with industry experienced leaders to get a better view of the global job markets and many other topics

      College Infra

      Icfai business school is one of the leading business schools with 16 campuses all over India. My experience with IBS was incredible. I now call it my second home, my alma mater. The teachers and their profound knowledge in their respective subjects as well as the teaching process makes the experience even more precious. From updated classrooms to student teacher engagement. Its top notch. Whenever we hear about MBA colleges fees is always a headache. This college gives you the best ROI according to me. I am very grateful to be a part of this esteem institution. The recruiters brought by the college are tue best in the industry and offers a handsome amount with distinct job roles that will shape the career of the students. Overall, a good investment towards your future if you dream for an exceptional career ahead.

      Campus Life

      College campus is alright. Hyderabad has the biggest campus though. But the infrastructure has all the amenities that is required making it a pleasant place to focus into academics and extra cuticulars

      Placements

      As mentioned earlier, the placement consisted of various industry giants like Deloitte, KPMG, PwC, ICICI bank, HDFC bank and so on. The mentors got us interview ready and in the batch of 2023, it was a 100% placement rate.

      Value For Money

      4lakhs per year, that is lakhs for the entire course. According to the placements they offer, its the best ROI.

      Academics

      Academics was good due to a few brilliant teachers. This was wholly based upon the work of a few teachers for which the finance department was actually helpful, but this is not to say that all teachers were good.

      College Infra

      Infrastructure is inadequate and faculties change midway. The college lacks sufficient resources to support the needs of the students. This includes a shortage of classrooms, laboratories and other facilities.

      Campus Life

      Not much as the building is very small. It is just one 6 story building that has really small rooms for the session. There is no proper conference hall as well. They used to have a field for sports, but now only have 2 carrom boards and one table tennis board.

      Placements

      Placement has been poor and a lot of politics is played. The force students to take whatever job is on the offer and will not allow the students to sit for interviews if deemed unfit. But this is not the case for preferred students.

      Value For Money

      Value for money is only there if either you have time and money to waste or you are brilliant in studies. Otherwise they will pack you with some edtech or startup to enhance their placement numbers. So kind of.

      Placements
