Q. Well to begin with my query is an obvious one which any MBA aspirant would seek; this being the first year of Banagalore campus, how is the momentum like?
A. SIBM Bangalore is an ultra modern campus, which boasts of its beautiful buildings and is surrounded by numerous IT companies in Electronic City, the epicentre of IT industry, in Bangalore.:boat:
Q. Well to begin with my query is an obvious one which any MBA aspirant would seek; this being the first year of Banagalore campus, how is the momentum like?
A. Momentum of all the students is as optimistic as it can be.
We all are proud of being associated with this college, be a part of this college. Being the first year we are new and afresh.
Q. Can you brief in about a normal day at SIBM Bangalore.
A. Usually the day begins at 7.30 am
with some godly souls getting up earlier and having jog.
The first lecture usually starts at 8.30 but if u are unlucky u may hav even one prior to 8.30
U'll find all the students coming in the mess at 8.20 and would be literally running to catch up their classes.
We've a hour lunch break and then again the classes will start which will run till 7.30 in the evening.

Then there will be meeting of respective groups later in the night preparing for the presentations, quizzes, seminars, case studies to be covered up the another day.:argue:
:laugh:For most of us the day doesn't end before 1 am.
Q. Also wat r the type of companies that usualy comes for the placements (for summer interns as of now).
A. Companies for Summers will be coming in November post diwali and first sem exams.
Till then we are collecting data about the students and companies.
The database is under process....
Do keep looking for this space for more on companies coming for Summers
Q. The faculties, permanent and guest/rotating.
What is the difference btwn the pune campus and bangalore campus. As in i know one of the reason why people this year were vying for the pune campus was coz Bangalore one is new, was there any other reason too besides that.
The faculties are one of the best.
Surely u wont be thinking of bunking instead, u'll be waiting for the lecture and in turn the faculty to come n teach u !!:bigear:
Differences between Pune and Bangalore campuses are many per se,
but few things which are in common are :-
We both boast of the SIBM tag.
We have world class infrastructure and facilities.
Guest lectures are even conducted by the SIBM pue alumnii.
Same curriculum.
Q. Well i am a CA and a CS. So does it make sense furthering my education for two more years at SIBM, should not i rather go for some work experience on the basis of my qualification, perhaps (rather certainly) two years down the line it would put me on the same footing as i would have been had i joined SIBM. My contention is would there be any perceived value addition that would make me stand out. i know this is aindeed a relative/subjective question, but if you guys can throw some light on it, it would be highly solicited.
A. An MBA that too from a reputed/ one of the country's best colleges is never of no/less use.
Ur work-ex after two years would definitely not put u in the same line as after joining SIBM :idea: and doing MBA.
The value addition is not just one more acads line in ur CV, but it will definitely help u grow/climb the corporate ladder more sooner than the others. After an MBA u wil be more involved in the decision-making process of the company rather than just preparing reports and giving suggestions.
Q. SIBM pune was supposed to be shifted to a residential campus, and they have been claiming to do so for the past two years, what is the status now..can anyone throw light on that.
A. From this year onwards the campus has been shifted from within the city,S.B Road to Lavale village (in the outskirts).
Hope i hav made u clear if not, do revert back for more queries.
