President’s Message

We started with a simple vision – Make management education better and become one of the top PGDM colleges in Bangalore.

Let me confess and be honest with you. We didn’t start National School of Business with lofty goals and promises. The vision was simple; make management education better and become one of the best PGDM colleges in Bangalore. At that time, there were many business schools – too many ‘me too’ players. The situation has not changed much even to this day.

We started working towards the goal of making our management education better. We undertook a thorough review of the curriculum offered, made changes where necessary and added several innovative features to it. As a result, we succeeded in creating a robust program, which was conceptually intensive, industry relevant, global in character and stood out from the crowd.

We spoke to some of the best management professors in the business; both at the national and international level, explained our vision, and requested them to be part of our core faculty team. Many of the management academicians we spoke to, obliged to our request. Thus, we put in place a strong faculty team.

We forged alliances with some of the best universities in India and abroad for awarding degrees and creating a forum for exchanging ideas and increasing the learning opportunities for our students. Our efforts bore fruit and enhanced the strength of the curriculum by several notches and created a credible niche for ourselves in the industry.

Our well-oiled placement cell fittingly complimented our academic strengths. Our emphasis on pre-placement training, skill and knowledge enhancement through additional certification courses and placement processes ensured that our students landed plum jobs, year after year.

As a result of our efforts, we became a serious player in management education and industry acknowledged our presence. Our rankings and ratings improved and we were counted among the top ranking institutions.

In spite of our solid performance over the years in every department, we haven’t forgotten the vision with which we started National School of Business – make management education better and become one of the top PGDM colleges in Bangalore. Every day, this vision spurs us to continuously improve the quality of our PGDM program and give aspiring PGDMs the best management education possible.
