Hi...

• Syndicate Groups: Students are assigned to diverse, small learning teams (typically 4-5 students) called "syndicate groups". The administration intentionally creates these groups by mixing different academic backgrounds, skill sets, gender, and experience levels to foster the exchange of diverse perspectives. These groups work together on a variety of tasks for the duration of a project or semester:
  • Case studies and real-world business challenges.
  • Assignments and presentations.
  • Research projects.
  • Problem-solving exercises.
• "Learning by Doing" (LBD) Model: The core of the GIBS pedagogy involves a practical, hands-on approach where 70% of the curriculum involves action-oriented learning. This inherently requires collaboration through:
  • Live corporate projects.
  • Simulation games and role-plays.
  • Brainstorming sessions to collectively find feasible solutions to assigned problems.
• IRE School Activities: The Innovation, Research, and Entrepreneurship (IRE) School program groups students into multi-disciplinary teams to work on developing business ideas from conception to a final business plan and prototype.
  • Teams conduct interviews with entrepreneurs, perform market research, and present their ideas to expert panels.
  • This fosters collaboration, idea-sharing, and practical application of frameworks like the Lean Canvas and Value Proposition Canvas. 

• Skill Enhancement: The collaborative environment at GIBS is designed to help students develop crucial soft skills that are highly sought after in the corporate world, including teamwork, leadership, negotiation, conflict resolution, and effective communication.
• Mentorship and Alumni Interaction: The strong alumni network actively participates in career guidance sessions and mentorship programs, allowing current students to gain insights and seek advice from experienced professionals, which often includes peer-to-peer discussions and networking opportunities.
• Club Activities: Beyond the core curriculum, students engage in various clubs and committees where they collaborate on planning and executing events, business fests, and cultural festivals. This fosters a strong sense of community and provides additional platforms for peer learning and social development.
• Collaborative Spaces: The campus infrastructure, including lounge and collaboration spaces, is designed to facilitate informal student interactions and group work outside of formal class time.
