It is a widely known fact that the B-School experience stretches beyond the four walls of the classroom. Learning is not all theoretical but heavily relies on the aspect of experiencing practical life and thereby honing one’s skill set.

The idea remains to get holistic exposure and gain experience of blended learning. The goal herein remains that an individual witnesses a stark difference in his/her personality and can see the growth between pre-B-school and post-B-school experience. In totality, the B-School journey becomes a transformational event in itself for individuals. 

To ensure the complete growth of students in a similar fashion, the Goa Institute of Management has ensured that its campus remains bustling with activities and, in the end, remains student-driven. It follows the approach of blended learning and aims to nuance the entire personality of students. Here is a listicle of all the things that make the GIM campus one of its kind and highlights the exemplary student life.
