    While GIBS Business School and the International Institute of Business Studies are some of the well-known management institutes in Bangalore, campus culture, the way one learns, and placement outcomes differ. Comparing both will help students decide on what matters to them the most: whether it's ROI, exposure, or learning experience altogether.
    Reputation & Growth: GIBS is known as a fast-growing B-school with strong industry-oriented learning, while IIBS is an established institute with wider brand visibility.

    I personally feel GIBS Business School is a better choice compared to IIBS. The exposure here is very different – from live projects, internships, and industry interactions to events that build confidence and leadership skills. The campus is vibrant, the environment is supportive, and there's a lot of focus on overall personality development along with academics.

    Placements are also quite strong, with many reputed companies coming in and good packages being offered. While IIBS is also a known college, at GIBS the kind of practical learning, recognition, and holistic growth you get really prepares you for the corporate world in the bes

I honestly feel they've made the whole fee part very flexible and student-friendly. Not everyone can arrange the full amount at once, so the installment and semester-wise payment options really help. On top of that, scholarships based on CAT/MAT/CMAT and merit make it easier for students who genuinely deserve a chance.

I've also seen classmates get scholarships around 75,000 which actually makes a big difference for families. What I liked is that GIBS keeps things transparent—no random surprise charges or unnecessary “extra fees”, and overall it feels more accessible compared to many B-schools in Bangalore.

Honestly, the thing I like about GIBS is that they don't just say “global exposure” or “industry ready” for marketing. Programs like IRE and CPMP actually make you work on stuff that companies expect outside the classroom.

In IRE, we do a lot of practical learning — projects, ideas, prototypes, presentations, even small entrepreneurship activities. It makes you more confident and helps you learn how to think creatively instead of just memorizing theories.

CPMP is more about preparing us for placements. We get industry mentors, communication training, aptitude prep, grooming sessions, resume and interview practice — all those

I've seen companies from different industries visiting for placements, not just banks or IT firms. Big names like HDFC Bank, EY, Accenture, Deloitte, KPMG, Bosch, Britannia, and PhonePe have recruited seniors from our batch. What I personally liked is the variety: finance roles, consulting, sales & marketing, analytics, HR. so students aren't stuck with one direction.

Even for internships, the exposure is decent because startups and corporates both show up. Because of this mix, most of us end up getting roles aligned with specialization, not random filler jobs, which I feel matters more than just showing logos. Overall, the placement ec

From my experience, GIBS offers PGDM in Marketing, Finance, HR, Business Analytics, Entrepreneurship and a few more. The best part is that it is not just classroom theory. Most subjects come with some sort of practical exposure like fieldwork, company projects, startup activities, case studies, and industry sessions.

We also get guest lectures, corporate talks, and mentoring which makes it easier to connect academics with the market. Honestly, the hands-on learning helped me understand placements and career options better because you get a real idea of how things work in companies instead of only writing exams.
