Chennai Business School (CBS), Chennai

Studying at Chennai Business School was not a typical B -School experience. The intimate learning environment meant that I could easily ask questions of the teachers during lectures and case discussions, which helped me gain greater knowledge and insight into the subject content. The best thing about CBS is having the freedom that allowed me to learn what interested me the most, so in all my time here I never felt bored. To any new student coming to CBS, I would say this: Throw yourself at every opportunity that comes your way. Those opportunities can make all the difference between getting what you want and having to settle for second best.

I will always value the time that I have spent at CBS. The time spent here was extremely fruitful as it equipped and enabled me to enter the work field with a great sense of direction and determination to succeed. Most importantly, the faculty and support staff encouraged me to passionately explore all avenues, and helped in unlocking my true potential.

CBS gave me the kind of management education that I wanted after having w orked for a while and taking a break for my higher studies in Management. It is rigorous, has an exhaustive curriculum for one year, and has a perfect blend of theory and business application with case studies, field work, and dealing with real industry problems that a management graduate must definitely know about. Learning from the leaders is truly the essence of my Management degree from Chennai Business School.

CBS has been like almost a second home to me. I am sure my friends from CBS would also share the same opinion. Those never ending assignments, Guest lectures by industry speakers and classes by Faculty of high profile, are memories to be treasured. The atmosphere that we grew up in CBS had all the ingredients in right quantities to enable the sharpening of our business acumen. With the best professors around, who were our friends, philosophers and guides throughout the journey were an inspiration to us. The emphasis was always laid on the practical problems that the businesses around the world faced, and we were trained to analyse and work towards resolving these issues. This immaculate blend of theory and practice brought me close to Learning for the Real world and now I am practicing all those learning at MARG Ltd. All good things come to an end, but I would never consider my absence from CBS as an end, in fact it has given birth to a new role as an alumnus. I would cherish every aspect of this role and would continue my association with CBS, ensuring my contribution to the school in every step it takes ahead
