Redefining Industry-Collaborations

Industry-academia partnerships are a key focus of IIBS’s MBA programs. These partnerships manifest in many ways, such as mentorship, projects funded by industries and internships.

During internships, learners can employ classroom concepts in actual projects, resulting in a fuller range of abilities.

By bridging the gap between academia and the industry, students can enhance their overall learning outcomes through this practical experience.

It is worth noting that many students have already been successfully placed in various multinational corporations (MNCs) through the referrals of their fellow students who have secured placements. This speaks to the effectiveness of the programs in equipping students with the necessary skills and connections to thrive in the professional world.
