Symbiosis Institute Of Business Management (SIBM) Pune is the first college set up under Symbiosis Society in the year 1978 and the earlier campus was at Senapati Bapat Road. In the year 2007 campus shifted to Lavale. The place is far off from the Pune city and thus providing scenic beauty, cool climate and a perfect student life. It is fully student-driven institution and thus student hold greater responsibility and learn the perfect management of resources.
It is indeed true when people say that MBA in Pune is synonymous to Symbiosis. I would not be wrong if I say that it is the best B school in Pune. The amazing placements, the crazy college-life, the remarkable teachers, the student-driven culture, the corporate connections, the business competitions, etc. Sports facilities are great here. It has own Swimming Pool, Yoga, Gym, Squash etc. apart from other outdoor sports.
The Hill-top campus is just beyond beautiful. It is a completely brilliant feeling to be sitting in an assembly hall during a lecture, and just to your right, is a large breezy window, which stares out into a valley, and the city of Pune, far away. The views are spectacular during the night, especially from the amphitheatre where a lot of cultural activities are held. One would not even get the thought of an AC even in summers – it’s that cool, literally. You can see the contours of various hills from the campus which makes it similar to a hill station.
The rainy season makes the lush-green campus even better. Bicycle culture is promoted at SIBM Pune campus so that student can travel from one place to another which is also good for the health. Helipad within the campus of SIBM Pune brings it very close to the other parts of the country and hence it becomes an ease for the visiting guests, political and business leaders to reach the campus.
Bollywood loves our campus - we often have shoots and promotional events. The Salman Khan starter Bodyguard has a major chunk of the college scenes shot at our college, so did a couple other not so famous movies, and a commercial starring Arjun Kapoor for Philips, was the latest addiiton.
It is a usual belief that food in a hostel mess is not very palatable. But at SIBM, it is otherwise – the food is good enough plus there is variety of food. Night Canteen is open till 2:00 AM and it is till then you can roam the beautiful campus.
Alumni base is huge and thus it also gets lot of Corporate Speakers who share there experiences and learning from the business world. The campus and facilities, needless to say, are state of the art. We have a well-managed library with a host of titles, and subscriptions to databases and journals. There is a convention center and an auditorium for hosting cultural as well formal/professional events.
