LIFE AT IBS = ACADEMICS/SPORTS/CLUBS

The 10 years of school are the ones that a person can never forget in his life”, “the graduation years give the best experience”… these statements don’t seem true when you get to experience the life during MBA, especially if it is IBS Hyderabad. The vast campus and the infrastructure is the first thing which attracts students. The second thing is the 100% case study methodology. The institute has a research centre called ICFAI Centre of Management Research which develops its own case studies which are used as a source of reading material in various other institutions. The pedagogy involves case studies from Harvard as well.Coming to the students’ point of view and the advantages they get out of this, this method of teaching may be challenging for few students. But the benefits weigh more. Cases, first of all, provide that practical knowledge which cannot be found in textbooks. Apart from that, the challenge which is posed at the students helps them learn more than just finance or marketing. It is the time management that the student learns. We keep hearing that management is not about hard work, it’s about smart work. This is what we learn here. Cases teach us to differentiate between relevant and irrelevant data.
