The Student Exchange Programme
IIM Bangalore has by far the most comprehensive exchange programme. B-schools like the London Business School, GSB Chicago, Anderson School - UCLA, HEC Paris and close to 50 others in 26 different countries participate in the programme each year offering a total of 174 students to undertake a term of study at their campuses. The mutual exchange sensitizes students the way of life elsewhere and facilitates a rich exchange of ideas and learning.
International Summer Internships
The most reputed multinational corporations recruit IIM Bangalore students for summer internships after their first year. A large number of the internship locations are outside India. In 2008, as many as 85 interns from IIMB joined the international offices - London, New York, Tokyo, Singapore, Honk Kong to name a few - of various firms. The experience of working with people of varying ethnicities and nationalities in equally diverse geographies enriches one's personality.
Course on International Business in Practice
As part of this curricular course offered in the fifth term of the programme, students get an opportunity to visit various companies in South-East Asia - Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia. They work with them, understand global workplace dynamics and return with valuable insights on international business practices.
The Global B-Schools Interaction
Delegations from some of the most well known business schools of the world visit our campus to interact with the students and faculty here. IIM Bangalore is the only B-school in the country to have hosted students from Harvard Business School, Yale University, Cornell University, Hong Kong University and many others for fruitful exchange of ideas.
The Stanford Exchange Programme
As part of special agreement between the Graduate School of Business, Stanford University and IIM Bangalore, every year students from both these elite institutes work together on various projects.
