About ISB
The Indian School of Business (ISB) was established in 2001, to address the demand for a premier business school in Asia. The institution was formed through the collaborative effort of globally eminent business leaders, entrepreneurs, and academicians, who recognised the need for leadership in emerging economies, particularly the need for young leaders with a global outlook. ISB is a not-for-profit, independent, research-driven, global business school with two state-of-the-art campuses in Hyderabad and Mohali.
ISB offers programmes tailored towards individuals with varying degrees of experience and from a range of career backgrounds. Its flagship programme is the one-year Post Graduate Programme (PGP) for young executives, equivalent to the 2-year MBA programme offered by premier business schools in India. ISB also offers part-time programmes for more seasoned professionals; advanced programmes focused on specific functions and a programme for family businesses. Additionally, ISB offers a doctoral-equivalent Fellow Programme in Management (FPM). ISB Executive Education and ISB Online also offer programmes designed for professionals at all stages of their careers. Since 2008, ISB has consistently been ranked among the top business schools globally by the Financial Times Global MBA rankings. To facilitate high-quality teaching, ISB provides great teaching support and mentoring, along with Teaching Assistants for grading and smooth conduct of the courses.
ISB's unique portfolio faculty model includes a mix of accomplished resident and visiting faculty who have graduated from the best universities in the USA, Europe, Singapore, and India and have published in leading academic journals. Our visiting faculty are from our founding partner schools, The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, and London Business School, our associate school, The Fletcher School at Tufts University, and other leading business schools. Senior faculty members from our partner schools serve as Area Leaders, playing crucial roles in shaping the academic programmes and research at ISB. In consultation with the resident faculty, the Area Leaders actively engage in curriculum development, faculty recruitment, and research mentorship. ISB also provides a vibrant research environment that attracts, supports, and benefits from the visiting scholars it hosts annually.
ISB's two campuses in Mohali and Hyderabad are parts of a single school, with faculty members residing on either campus. Faculty are also entitled to on-campus accommodation. Both campuses are designed to be self-sufficient, keeping family needs in mind.
