IBS Hyderabad Reviews on Infrastructure, Campus, Placement, Facilities & Faculty

The college provides a great infrastructure for the students. Lecture halls and classrooms are spacious having ample view of the teaching board, Centralized A/C and are now also equipped with touchscreens for live and interactive teaching. (Although the newly introduced touch screens have never been used during my 2nd year/ 2019).

The overall quality of teaching is good. You will encounter faculties that are having PhD's, Masters and years of work experience in their respective field, but the actual number of professors who can teach well, make the class interactive and learning fun is low. There's a trend followed by 70% professors teaching from PowerPoint presentations and very less actual interaction with the class (in terms of current business world trend). Its more of theoretical than practical teaching.

I am from the 2018-2020 batch, so as at February 2020 roughly 130 students were yet to be placed. Keep in mind that you can get PPO's (Pre-Placement Offer) from your internship company (availed via college internships or self generated internships). The overall placement scenario is an Average because of large student pool from my batch (roughly 1190). Domestic Highest is 16LPA by Amazon, International Highest is 51LPA by Tolaram group, Average package is around 7-8 LPA.

2018-2020's batch fee was around 16 Lacs (accounting all the expenses in the fee brochure), for the 2019-2021 batch the fees was roughly around 18 Lacs. Also, as of February 2020, the college has attained the AACSB accreditation (which is given to less than 5% colleges globally). So, yes there is a benefit in terms of the entire journey as well as the renewed value of your degree (for 2020 batch onward).

Campus Life is phenomenal. Hostels are divided into 2 categories, one which have common restrooms and others which have a joint restroom (though the joint rooms are limited in number and are generally provided to students with a medical issue). Most of the hostel rooms are a single occupancy, have common restrooms, play area for indoor badminton, table tennis. The campus is huge, far in the outskirts of the city thus is surrounded with greenery, low pollution and great ambience of people.

Overall, IBS Hyderabad is a good place to start your Masters journey, but do consider other options before applying here due to higher fee and slightly low ROI. But, for that you get a great place to spend your 2 years, to connect with people, learn the business tongue and start your career. You'll definitely miss the campus once you graduate!
