Welcome to MBA Program
IBA is the oldest business
school outside North America. It was established in 1955
with initial technical support provided by the world
famous Wharton School of Finance, University of
Pennsylvania; later, the University of Southern
California set up various facilities at the Institute
and several prominent American professors were assigned
to the IBA.
IBA initially offered MBA program only for day scholars.
In 1957, an Evening Program was started to cater to the
needs of the numerous working executives and managers
who were interested in furthering their careers through
part-time business studies. In 1982, a three-year BBA
(Honors) Program was introduced which has now been
upgraded into a four-year BBA program.
