History

Infinity Business School is the brainchild of Neeraj Batra, one of India’s leading Investment Bankers. Inbuss, as the school is fondly called, received Equity participation from Citicorp Finance India Ltd and was incepted in 2001 as a Citicorp Investee Institution. The School offers Post Graduate Programs in Business Management.



Ajay Relan, India Head Citigroup Investments, Nitin Jain, a leading Investment Banker and Sharat Anand, Ex Deputy-CEO, Standard Chartered Bank were the other Co-founding members of the School. The school has benefitted immensely from the contribution of its Governing Board which, comprises Country heads and leaders of some of India’s largest foreign banks, multinationals and consultancy firms.



The school ran its program from its campus on Sikandra Road located in Lutyens Delhi till 2008. Inbuss shifted its campus to an independent, state of the art Building in Gurgaon’s, foremost institutional sector. The School has an excellent neighbourhood with Companies such as McKinsey, GlaxoSmithKline, Ranbaxy, ITC and the Future Group in its immediate vicinity. The upcoming Medicity and a state of the art sports auditorium are within a short distance of Inbuss. From July 2010 the school would benefit from the Central Secretariat-Gurgaon line of the Delhi Metro, which has a termination point within two miles of the Institute.



Inbuss draws its faculty from the best institutes in the country including the IIMs, FMS,MDI and ISB Hyderabad. The Institute offers 20 compulsory courses during the three trimesters in the first year leading to a Post-Graduate Diploma In General Management. During the second year the institute offers a mix of compulsory and elective courses offering specialisation across Marketing, Finance, Human Resource Development and Entrepreneurship.

Advantages of studying here

Infinity Business School provides a radically different environment of learning. The program is designed to produce business managers who are equipped to think like entrepreneurs. The focus is more on real life business situations than merely pedantic classroom teaching. A lot of emphasis has been laid on familiarity with global business trends, developing communication and presentation skills. High level of emphasis is placed on team and project work and the Institute favors an open book examination system. Peer rating has been used as a key criterion of evaluation to complete a 360° evaluation.
The methodology of teaching combines traditional books with case studies. However great care has been taken to create contemporary case studies and the latest management experiences from the West have been incorporated. Project work and market research forms the backbone of teaching and the Institute simulates the real job world to balance the process of pedantic quest for knowledge with ground realities.
Using lectures, case studies, teamwork, seminars, business simulations, and field research, all the courses combine theory with practical applications. Students are exposed to the latest practices and realities of today's business world thanks to the expertise of the faculty, the intervention of professionals in the field and the experience of their classmates. Relying heavily on the case study methodology, faculty encourages the active participation of students. Interaction with peers through class discussions, role plays and group work combined with student presentations provide each student extensive and unique opportunities to learn and grow. Enough care is taken to ensure a contiguous year long evaluation and thus reducing the importance of just term end examinations.
Outside the classroom, Post Graduate students are expected to make a significant learning effort. For each course they should spend at least 40 hours for study, class projects and preparation. Work done outside of class is likely to consist of reading texts or articles, working problem sets, researching and writing papers, and preparing and discussing cases in small study groups.

The Unique Peer Rating Concept is again something that is proprietary to Infinity Business School. We present to each student a rating matrix on various interpersonal and group behavior traits such as flexibility, Diligence, empathy, team player, creativity etc. This input across various parameters is provided by the peer group and is also made available to the recruiter to aid the decision for a holistic view on the candidate.
A unique feature of our Program is a proprietary course on Personality Enhancement (PEP), which focuses on developing and enhancing soft skills and the overall personality of our students, a key requirement for budding global managers. The course content, which is embedded into the curriculum through the six trimesters, ranges from developing communication and interpersonal skills to self esteem enhancement, grooming, etiquette and creative skills. As business managers, they are taught negotiation skills, lateral and creative thinking and developing soft skills.
Similarly given its increased relevance a special course on Globonomics and Wealth Management was added to the offerings. This encompasses the macroeconomic linkages and the intricate correlation between Monetary policies of various countries. It also introduces the students to the entire gamut of Wealth Management across different asset classes such as Traditional Fixed Income, Equities, Commodities, Art, Gold & Diamonds. It educates the class on global financial phenomenon & issues with extensive coverage on contemporary topics such as Yen Carry forward trade, sub prime crisis, decoupling theory, de-leveraging etc.

Areas of specialisation

As a part of the Post Graduate Program in Functional Management (PGDFM), every students is required to choose a particular / combination of streams that they intend to specialise in. The final diploma awarded to the students denotes their key area of specialisation.

Infinity Business School offers specialisations in four key domains

·Marketing
·Finance
·Entrepreneurship
·Human Resource Management

As a part of the offering of the PGDFM, a student undertakes 10 elective courses in addition to the regular compulsory courses that are common to all students. We currently offer a total of 22 elective courses out of which the student is required to make that choice for 10 courses. The choice of the subscription to these courses lies with the student and is offered to them at a stage where they have been introduced to all the facets of management as a part of the PGDGM module.

Given the thin line cutting across various streams of management, the Institute encourages the students to take an ideal blend of the various streams, thereby offering a “Dual Specialisation”. In such cases the diploma award clearly indicates the same.
