In 2011, ISB celebrated ten years of nurturing young leaders in the field of management education. We are also the first business school in South Asia to receive the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) accreditation. Since 2008, the ISB has consistently featured in the Global Top MBA rankings by the Financial Times, London

With increased globalisation, the ISB sees three important trends which will influence its direction for research and education in the coming years:

Requirement for global competencies in India and Asia
Globalisation of Indian corporations
Increasing interest in management best practices of the emerging markets, including India

The Post Graduate Programme in Management (PGP) at the Indian School of Business (ISB) develops global leaders with insight on emerging economies and their unique business challenges. This carefully-crafted one-year programme incorporates practical industry applications with a rigorous, cutting-edge research-based curriculum that has transformed several mid-career professionals to global business leaders of today and tomorrow. The one-year PGP is meant to hone your skills and challenge conventional wisdom.

With ISB’s unique portfolio faculty model, you interact, learn from and engage with eminent management intellectuals, who bring with them research and teaching experience from leading B-schools across the world.  Their distinctive research ensures that the programme offers content that is contemporary, innovative and truly global.

ISB’s strong associations with renowned B-schools across the world such as the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and the London Business School ensure that the curriculum is up-to-date in terms of theoretical intensity and practical relevance.

At the ISB, you have the opportunity to extend your professional network worldwide through international exchange programmes, conferences, business plan competitions and study treks, all of which not only allow you to experience different cultures but also push your own intellectual boundaries through a rich mix of ideation and engagement with students, academics and industry leaders.
