Life at GIBS is like living in India full of diversity and full of excitement.
Placements: Currently the process of placement is going on still; till now, I think only 20 people have been placed in the November drive. Most of the companies that are coming for the placements are startups, along with Mahindra Finance. We took around 4 people from our college. Overall, the placement process looks good. I think till the end of our batch, 90% of people will be placed.
Infrastructure: So, GIBS is having a very good infrastructure. We have an auditorium; we also have a library with us. Apart from it, we have space; a new building has been constructed in which we have a fitness gym. We have a gaming area and, for cookery activities, we also have one separate space where people can go and practice if they want to perform.
Faculty: Regarding professors, they are really good. I especially like that they are calling additional staff and the guest lecturers we are having at our college. Most of the professors are from industry, which has had more than 10 years of experience with them.
Other: We are also having two separate programs called Liar in CPMB, which really help us in boosting our image.
