ISB Hyderabad Ranked in Top Twenty World’s Best B-schools

The Indian School of Business (ISB) has been ranked No. 20 in the global B-school rankings released today by Financial Times, London.

Congratulating the ISB students, faculty, and staff, Rajat Gupta, Chairman, ISB, said,

"This is great news! The ISB graduated its first class in 2002 with a vision to establish an internationally top-ranked, research-oriented B-school in India. I am extremely proud that the students, faculty, and staff have achieved this in such a short time. I am also delighted that the ISB has brought such academic and international recognition to India."

Within a short span of six years, the ISB has made a mark for itself as a premier B-school in India. It has successfully pioneered several initiatives in the field of management education by bringing in international best practices and people. The ISB introduced the one-year programme, unique portfolio model of faculty, accepting students with prior work experience and diverse backgrounds, the GMAT score as a selection criterion, lateral placements, international quality research and several other initiatives. Being ranked Twenty among global B-schools is a validation of the ISB’s effort to establish an international B-school located in India.

Speaking on the occasion, M. Rammohan Rao, Dean, ISB, said, "This is a vision come true for all of us at the ISB. We owe a lot to our faculty for their research work and for publishing in top-tier journals. Our students, who are all successful professionals today, and our staff, who are passionately committed to excellence, have contributed a great deal for our achievement. We are also deeply indebted to our Board members, our Associate Schools, the Area Leaders, and our visiting faculty whose unstinted support has made this possible for us."
