What are the unique strengths or focus areas that set IIM Bangalore apart from other IIMs?
Our location in India’s Silicon Valley has allowed us to leverage Bengaluru's technology ecosystem. In 1998, we launched a weekend MBA to support the burgeoning IT sector. Our entrepreneurial ecosystem is a key differentiator; we supported 1,300+ startups last year. The Nadathur S Raghavan Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning (NSRCEL), a top academic incubator, fosters innovation among students, women entrepreneurs and social ventures. Academically, IIMB offers flexibility with a high ratio of electives in the second year. It also focuses on public policy and social impact through the Centre for Public Policy (CPP), which collaborates on policy research. Globally, IIMB consistently ranks among India’s leading B-schools in QS and Financial Times listings and is part of GNAM (Global Network for Advanced Management). Since 2014, we have offered MOOCs on edX, with over 50 courses reaching two million learners. We've prioritised inclusivity and accessibility, and this year reached 40% women in the PGP cohort.
What is the institute doing to strengthen industry partnerships and improve student employability?
